Someone that grew up in New Orleans, Houston, and Mississippi is the one you are claiming to be Nigerian because of his name.

Motivating!

This is officially my mentor I have always dreamt of being an astrophysicist thank you so much OP . please how can I contact him. Am a 2015 Graduate of Physics at Obafemi Awolowo University.

Check his Florida Tech email. I won't display it here. Just google his name and FIT.. Email him and express your ambition. Tell him you will like to do your Masters and PhD research under his tutelage. Apply for Masters at FIT. Don't tell him you only want to have Masters. Tell him you want to get your PhD. Find his past research works online and say something that will interest him. You can reach out to him before or after you apply to FIT. Baba, if I were you, I will start my application to his school first before I reach out to him. This will show I'm serious. This has worked for many Nigerians..Also, research Florida Tech. I'm very sure one Nigerian will be doing PhD there..If you see any on there website, write the person and keep in touch. He will guide you better..Also,visit Nairaland USA student page. That will extremely help you...Start now. Start studying for Toefl and GRE. They are not difficult.

Yoruba Amaka

Look at credentials and some flat heads will come here to beat flat chest about there type who are drug pushers all over the world. Odua Republic loading if 2019 is not in favour of Showore we cannot continue to Nigeria this Nigeria that over nothing. Yoruba ronu.

NessaBoo:
Yeah...he's actually really a big deal, he's fondly called the "Guardian of the galaxy" ,

Blacks are always so underrepresented, from George Washington Carver to the black women who worked as mathematicians at NASA in the early 20th century, to James West, who co-invented the microphone and those whose impressive scientific records have nearly languished in obscurity.

Hakeem is as big as they come!!

I feel the under-representation of black people and their achievements in the STEM fields comes from a general stereotypical belief that blacks are only great and popular in other fields like entertainment and sports, and also, more than ever, this ideology being projected and inculcated into young black kids growing up today, making these fields a priority for these kids.

Fewer blacks involved in STEM makes them naturally extinct and totally forgotten when it comes to acknowledging their works and contributions.

It's totally commendable, the awareness these black scientists are creating and their efforts in taking a step to change the status quo.

Ogbonna Onu should just hand over to this man and he should be be begged to sign a contract till 2027.

You'll be surprised this kind person might not even be an atheist. But those underachieving losers in Religion section, na them carry athiesm for head despite being sore losers in the realm of science and tech.

Lol. You are so moronic. Trying to shade atheists so much that you didn't stop to think if it applies to u too. Or are u not an underachieving theists in the realm of science and tech or life in general and even in religion who carries religion on his head? Lol.

If u are actually smart, u won't have used the example u used. And I wouldn't have been able to use it against u. And u didn't even confirm if the guy u were talking about was religious or not before mouthing off.

Lordofthewest:
Really??...so when is Nigeria going to the moon?

Next week

Kudos to him

Quite inspiring

But what is it with all these tribal childishness that has taken over Nairaland??

We are first of all Nigerian.... Let the MODs start banning those atrocious minds to restore sanity and good conduct

Honestly nairaland had become very childish and a ground for tribal wars.
It is for this reason of tribal war on nairaland that I rarely visit this forum.
I think it is high time Seun did something about this tribal war here otherwise intelligent and mature guys will start finding this forum sickening

@seun Osewa please note this comments for intelligent report and please do action observations

It is no longer safe for intelligent and healthy reasoning individuals

Yoruba, King of Black Race!

If it is about those tribal bigots this post would have reached 20 pages, bashing other tribes.

Life is too short to be speaking in parables…just say e dey pain you as people no show much interest in the post.

If any you think that guy have an hint that he is of Nigerian origin, then you are fooling yourselves. I watched one of his other video and below his my comment to one of is other YouTube videos I saw:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45pTq0ADz6o

"Dr. Hakeem Oluseyi, I could see from your names that your parents are most likely Nigerians. In fact I have the same first name, and similarly your last name is of same ethnic origin as mine. So I am really surprised by your comment on finding students in South Africa equally as intelligent as American students. Sorry to ask this "Don't your parents talk about their Nigerian background?". Until the time I was doing grad studies at a Canadian university and was undergrad class instructor, I never realized how superbly more brilliant an average Nigerian student I left home was. Only thing was that they were in a society with different human experience, different environment, and different and extremely diverse cultures. I would expect you to have come to that level of awareness before that trip to South Africa. For example I read somewhere online, and not sure how accurate it is, that you never heard about calculus until after you left high school for Stanford. That is a stark contrast to the public high school I attended in Lagos, Nigeria in early to mid-80s where we had few calculus whiz kids in the class."

Still DEMOLA AJAYI

Hello nairalanders, pls bless me this festive season and God will bless you too. 0160847155 gtb any amount will be appreciated. Thanks

ChiefAzubuike:
Because he bears a Nigerian name doesn't mean he's Nigerian. He might only have naija ancestors.

If you watch discovery channel 136 on DSTV well,.then you should be familiar with this boy.

And Sony Max too i think
