Lool...it does not work that way dude...you can not just put anyone in a position because of some high grades
Leadership is different from academic ability....though both can work in tandem at times...but not always
There have been so many other older Nigerians that have acheived such feat, but choose to keep it silent..
Ain't no biggies...

DrMoffy:
I urge ur fellow kinsmen who have better exposure and understanding about life to erase ds kind of mentality from Igbo race. This is d kind of mindset dat breeds tribalism and hatred. If d older generatn made d same mistake of polluting minds then we all need to work hard and eradicate it in our own generation because of innocent kids....

Yea, I'm telling you. Nigerians here are doing well. My boss at work (IT company) is Nigerian and you need to see how smart and intelligent he is, and commands respect from his oyibo subordinates. I have utmost respect for him. I attended the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) conference in Anaheim, California (flew to Los Angeles International Airport) 2 weeks ago. This is an event that is held once every year during which top companies such as Ford Motors, General Electric, Shell, Chevron, Chevrolet, Northrup Grummann, Intel, Cisco etc attend to recruit intelligent black engineers, and is attended by thousands, of students from all over US. I went there and the number of Nigerians I found there was stifling. Nigerians (Igbo, Yoruba, Urhobo, Ibibio) everywhere. O gini na-afio? Approximately 45% of the people there were Nigerians, including the recruiters/HR personnel representing the companies and the students. You would walk up to a recruiter to talk to him only to read his name tag and see 'onyekachi dike' or 'olaide tony' or 'dubem nwobu'. Or you would jump in line waiting to talk to a particular company and read the name tags of everyone standing in line and ALL are Nigerians. WTF Even one of the recruiters happened to be my village guy, same village same ogbe (quarter)! Nna, quickly we exchanged contacts o. I met a couple of students who graduated from my UG school, UNN. People were just landing job offers on the spot. Interviews taking place here and there on the spot. One naija guy landed 3 offers from 3 different companies and was confused as to which one to choose. We (a collection of 5 nigerian students at the event ) advised him to go for Johnson & Johnson seeing that it has more job benefits than the others.

Towards the ending of the event on the second day, na em my fellow yoruba students begin blow yoruba anyhow. Yoruba dey represent anywhere dem go. I hail una.

Or is it confidence and composure? Give it up to the Nigerians. They were walking around like they own the entire building complex.

And confidence is one trait most recruiters look out for in potential candidates, even if you don't know what you're saying, just act like you know what you're saying.

You can most times tell a Nigerian from his walking gait and the confidence he exudes while walking, or in other words, his 'i no send you' waka.

It goes a long way to show the huge presence of Nigerians in engineering in US. Nigerians rarely go for ajebo courses like english literature, social work, biological biology or however they want to tus.h it up to sound appealing , but the tough ones such as engineering, medicine, etc where the money is.

happy for him, proudly Naija

Horayce:

I beg to differ. I started studying in an Engineering program in the states this spring and from what I've seen we have a long way to go. Nigerians have mastered the art of getting top grades in US universities which is all very well, but that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is innovation. Inventing products. Building companies. Creating value and wealth. Not just racking up 4.0s that invariably set u up to be an employee to the white man for life. How many patents have been filed by any Nigerian or Nigerian run company in the states? Relative to other Nationals? For the amount of undergrads and graduates we funnel into the system yearly the net return on innovation is slim to none. Nigerians mostly like to play it safe: go to US, study hard and settle into cushy careers. I don't see any multi million ( not mommy and daddy enterprises abeg) Nigerian startups like I see with some Chinese, Japenese and even Indians in the US. My point is the mentality has to change from earning paper certificates to creating lasting value that would impact on society, and as of right now i don't see anything that would justify any chest thumping as a Nigerian.
