So oyinda is still alive? We thank God.

oyinda.:

wow that's impressive
i agree with u aloyemeka CNN will never carry positive news but will never fail to carry the negative ones. but I guess that goes with most news media.

Why should they? Is CNN a Nigerian network? Besides negative news = more ratings = more money. Capitalism at work. If CNN's primary audience is in the US and Europe, why should they cover Nigerians doing well in school? Isnt that the job of the NTA?

Giffim a round of applause nauu!!!

The guy should be commended. Who is to say that he will not positively impact on Nigeria in the future.

But it's their job to carry negative news? Isn't that also the job of the NTA?
If they really want to 'mind their business', they shouldn't carry any news concerning Nigerians at all. simple.

bad news is good news for CNN. They need it to keep on business

Ha ha, interesting!

A Nigerian has emerged the best of his class and he should be celebrated whether he went to Yale ,
O.A.U or Mexico is not the issue.
We Nigerians should learn to unite and celebrate our little pockets of positive achievements and project them both internally and externally.
I live in a neighborhood where even High School valedictorians,salutarians and best graduating students from local school communities are featured in their news media.The students,their families and the community as a whole are congratulated for raising and producing those outstanding young individuals.
ABC features ordinary individuals who has contributed positively even in little ways to their commuinities as person(s) of the week.
I believe nigerian media houses should take a cue from this and begin to feature achievements of ordinary people accomplishing extra ordinary things or simply making a positive contribution to the community.If it generates enough momentum the international community would be forced to reckon with the fact that Nigeria is not only home to the negatives but that good and positive things does exist and come out of Nigeria.
