Meet Philip Emeagwali: Biography Of Father Of Modern Day Internet by Nobody: 7:26pm On Sep 05, 2018 |
There’s more than one story told about the struggle of Philip Emeagwali, a Nigerian Computer Scientist who has lived in the United States for so many years. The engineer, mathematician and geologist, one story says, just like other African children of his childhood days, may have dropped out of school at the age of 14 because his father could not afford his school fees. Another story says that he had to suspend his schooling when he was 13 to serve in the Biafran army. Whatever the case, one thing is for sure; at some point during his teen, his education was suspended. But in spite of all history has to say and all history has said, today Emeagwali is known as the ‘father of modern day internet’ and the ‘Bill Gates of Africa.’ https://leadership.ng/2018/09/02/philip-emeagwali-father-of-modern-day-internet/amp/ 21 Likes 1 Share |

FisifunKododada:I am happy someone here knows. Maybe the OP was not yet working at that time. I was a fraud but made it look so easy. All he did was publish the bogus claims on his personal website and everyone chop am. Including Bill Clinton. He did some project with a prize money of 1,000 dollars which he won at the time. He try sha. Very easy to sell propaganda without verifying if you know how. 24 Likes 3 Shares |
