iamhorny:Coupled with the facts that Yorubas lead in Education,Science and Technology and ICT,Music,Business,Infrastructures,Economy etc,they have broken the world records by being only the blacks who had gotten 5.0 cgp both at home and abroad in the higher institutions. They have the highest numbers of the best black mathematicians in the whole world..... K. Okikiolu: Born to Nigerian and British parents, but educated in the U.S., Katherine Okikiolu (was once on Princeton's faculty) received special distinction in 1997 when she was the first Black to win a Sloan Research Fellowship. Later in 1997, she won the Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers for "Innovative research in geometric analysis, particularly the determinant of the Laplacian under smooth perturbations, and developing student workshops and mathematics curricula for inner-city children." This particular award is worth $500,000 and is only granted 60 scientists and engineers in the U.S. per year. Okikiolu's work on elliptical differential operators is considered a major contribution, going well beyond what experts had considered feasible, given the current state of knowledge. Her 2001 publication Critical metrics for the determinant of the Laplacian in odd dimensions in the Annals of Mathematics, is receiving high acclaim. She is Associate Professor of Mathematics at the University of California at San Diego. Farley: Born in an extremely successful academic family of Rochester, New York, Jonathan Farley, graduated second in his class with an A.B. from Harvard University and obtained a mathematics Ph.D. from Oxford University where he was awarded the Senior Mathematical Prize and Johnson Prize for his research. During a two year visit to the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute [MSRI] in 1996, Farley solved very important old problems in the Theory of Ordered Sets. He also works in Lattice Theory. He is currently publishing at an average of more than three papers a year, and in 2003 was a Distinguished Fulbright Scholar at Oxford University in England. Currently is Visiting Professor of Mathematics at Massachusettes Institute of Technology. Gangbo: In just nine years from a Ph.D. to a Full Professor - this is incredible. Wilfrid Gangbo was born in Benin and in 1992 earned a Ph.D. from Swiss Federale Institute of Technology. Among his twelve papers is his 1996 The geometry of optimal transportation remains the single publication by a Black in the Mittag-Leffler Institute's Acta Mathematica, one of the world's strongest mathematics journals. In 2001 he was appointed Full Professor by Georgia Institute of Technology. Agboola: In mathematics, one does not always know of young persons working in fields outside their own, and it is a great honor to the individual if the case is otherwise. Adebisi Agboola's work in Number Theory and Arithmetic Algebraic Geometry has been mentioned to me as very good by Kevin Corlette and two of my non-Black colleagues whose area of research is mutually exclusive with Agboola, Corlette, and each other. Agboola is Full Professor of Mathematics at the University of California at Santa Barbara Gumel: Born in Nigeria, Ph.D. in England. Abba Gumel is an extremely prolific in the areas Mathematical Biology, Non-linear Dynamical Systems, and Computational Mathematics. Currently he is a Full Professor at the University of Manitoba in Canada. Jackson: American Trachette Jackson was a mathematics major at Arizona State in Tempe. Four years later she earned a Ph.D. in Mathematical Biology. Five years later she had ten articles under her belt and a Sloan Fellowship. Currently, Associate Professor at the Department of Mathematics University of Michigan Johnson: British born Mathematical Physicist Clifford V. Johnson has over 60 publications since his 1992 Ph.D. Since that time he has immersed himself within String Theory (also see Sylvester James Gates) with papers and books. He is currently on leave at USC. http://www.math.buffalo.edu/mad/madgreatest.html Go and read and be literate but na wuru wuru to the answer una like. https://www.nairaland.com/2674858/yorubas-cornered-nigerias-ict-sector 1 Like |

InvestinOwerri:You avoided me.I have a little time for you illiterates who called OMOLUABIS out on education today. Just the fact that Igbos are still learning how to wear clothes in 1921 confirm them as one dull black people who have a lot of catching up to do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igbo_people The men were tying wrappers and the women walking almost naked.What they call traditional dresses now are fake clown wears that they made up. They cannot even compare with the Ashantis,Zulus etc talkless of the great Yoruba Nation.Now look..Yorubas are empire builders.. Igbos did not build a hut...sorry they are not even hut builders. Yorubas/SW control the 3rd economy in Africa.Igbos are not even 100. https://www.thenigerianvoice.com/news/172621/1/to-the-people-of-the-southwest-the-third-largest-e.html Yorubas have more than 10 grammy awards.Igbos have 000000.00000000 grammy. These are some great clothings of the Yoruba... The Yoruba have legendary types of clothes that make them distinct from other cultures around them. They take immense pride in their attire, for which they are well known. Clothing materials traditionally come from processed cotton by traditional weavers. They believe that the type of clothes worn by a man depicts his personality and social status, and that different occasions require different clothing outfits. Typically, The Yoruba have a very wide range of materials used to make clothing, the most basic being the Aṣo-Oke, which is a hand loomed cloth of different patterns and colors sewn into various styles and which comes in very many different colors and patterns. Aso Oke comes in three major styles based on pattern and coloration; Alaari – a rich red Aṣọ-Oke, Sanyan- a brown and usual light brown Aṣọ-Oke, and Ẹtu- a dark blue Aṣọ-Oke. Other clothing materials include but are not limited to: Ofi- pure white yarned cloths, used as cover cloth, it can be sewn and worn. Aran- a velvet clothing material of silky texture sewn into Danṣiki and Kẹmbẹ, worn by the rich. Adirẹ- cloth with various patterns and designs, dye in indigo ink (Ẹlu or Aro) I am sorry if I have offended some discernible and great Igbos.Pls,accept my apologies.  1 Like |

The battle between the Igbo and Yoruba for dis nairaland ehn ... Anyway congratulations to the top 3: Abia, Anambra and Edo states. On analysis of this data, the states in the Top 10 (bar, Lagos) comprise the former Eastern region - and they are really powering in terms of education. Keep it up! Education is key in this Information Age, the 21st century and beyond. 3 Likes |

thuggCheetah:The inferiors ar always tryin to weigh themselves up to the superiors, u pple ar jst strugglin to catch up wt yorubas but u neva can't, history is always givin u foot sweep wen u try to stand.. When Yorubas have had secondary schools, polytechnics, colleges of education, universities, institutes of technologies and agrics, ur leaders were strugglin to convince ur pple to go to primary schools. When awolowo first introduced education to d east, ur women protested unclad against it. Education isnt new to d yorubas anymore, it has bcom part of us and that's why we dont see it as anythin special. |
