Talents are killed on a daily basis in Nigeria.
The best brains from nigeria are often discovered and harnessed abroad.
Seeing good news like this makes me glow with pride.
I keep praying for the day when I will be proud enough to say "I am from nigeria" in front of anybody. Sometimes, I find myself saying south africa or carribeans... its a shameful fact.


For all those screaming "I can make it without education" I hope u can see this and take a cue.
Its never top late to do the right thing.

Resident stark illiterate, at this stage of my life, based on what I saw on that list - I'm far ahead of most of the ones on that list, while they were at my age. I also attended a far better Uni. And I'm not even an academic -just some any guy.

Can you see why I don't rate mediocrity now, Mr. despicable obnoxious yokel? I expected something better - so stop crying.

Napoleone:
It's a pity people will still not appreciate the sagacity of Nigerians.

ECOTERRORS:
IIekeh come and see a thread where igbos are excelling so that you can drink your hemlock tonight

tonychristopher:
Nne,
Ibiakwa ozo, you and your poster boy of stupidity

AKUKO

Who sabi monkey

talk is cheap


abeg go find something do joor

if animal way get horn dey show, snail go follow come

opribo:
Why is there no notherner in the list. This is sacrilegious is it that it is only when it comes to Nigerian politics that we will find them struggling for power. Upon all the scholarships and bursary they have been collecting why are they like this.

yibobasher2:
All I can see is that most of them that have their background from Nigeria went to Southwest universities. After some people will say they didn't benefit from Awolowo free education.

CaptainOjemba:
Never knew that awolowwe made university education free in southwest, university college ibadam is not a hand work of any nigerian, it was a british school established before independence and after indepenence until later changed to university of ibadam.

Lissen dawg.... im talking real life youre talking online....
Shiiittt.... have u ever been the only black guy in a club and on cnn, "boko haram kidnapps 200+ girls in nigeria" is showing on screen..... niggaaan u have no idea.

yibobasher2:


And after independence, under which government was it managed?

lyndabrown:
Igbos too much

sukkot:
ndigbo i troway salute. you are representing nigeria nicely. but please dont come in here and brag or i will change this compliment

i see many yorubas there too

LordPsalm:

Igbo's are really wonderful I must confess
#Proudly_Igbo

SirShymexx:


Dabiri and Olukotun shiit on everyone on that list.

Ol'girl just listed mediocre folks in obscure backwater Universities.

BrosPeters:
Very skewed list. The OP purposely put more Igbos on the list

I am an Igbo man living in America and there is ABSOLUTELY no way that there are more Igbo academics than Yoruba academics in Diaspora- that is Yoruba territory!!!!

Udmaster:
Cry me a river. is it because Igbos dominate OPs list? IGBOPHOBIA SYNDROME..

SirShymexx:


Sensitive and insecure muthaphuckas - not everything is about you fvckers.

There are Yoruba folks from mediocre Unis there like the one at Howard Uni.

Is Howard Uni a Top Uni in the world? And how many of them are from Top Universities in the world on there, apart from 3/4 like I posted?

Most of you will end committing suicide induced by insecurity - no one gives a shiit about you.

Eat a dyck, muthaphucka
