You love Nigeria at your own peril. Education is highly overatted in Nigeria! ...look atbhow they wasted the mans time!

Nukilia:
Wasted life and a wasted generation!

Education in Nigeria is a scam!

#DoNotAskMeWhy

Nobody asked you to fail in school

backnbeta:
I'm an academic, but this kind of determination is a time waster! Any doctoral program beyond five years is not worth it.

100% agreed. His research topic would already be an exhausted and expired area if inquiry.

He wasted his own time.

Oblongata:
He followed his dreams regardless of the hurdles. . .

My fellow Nigerians, follow your dreams. If it gets out of reach, grow wings and fly...

Do what you love, and love what you do. Life has no meaning but we can at least be happy by making ourselves fulfilled.

Shalom!

But you know he would have achieved more in Life if Unilag had flown him to out. This country kills one's dream.

astrodome:

I'm telling you, bro. I have come to understand life, find the easiest way out, it isn't laziness just about being smart.

I can site so many scenarios from personal experience, I have learnt my lesson. If you have money to pay people to get things done please do.

capitalzero:
wasted certificates, wasted years, fruitless efforts. nobody will inherit your certificates upon demise. your knowledge and wealth can be passed to unborn generations and you do need plenty certificates to acquire wealth and knowledge .

This is a very silly thing to say. How can you undermine the value of education?

He killed his own time. He has now (in 2016) fulfilled his dream. But we all know where dreams end up. See what his colleagues did in the quote below

Following the termination of his program, his colleagues, Prof. H.N Odogwu and Dr. Mrs. Ogbonna, who were also faced with the problem of a supervisor, switched to other field and went abroad to continue respectively.

astrodome:


His colleagues left and got their degrees much earlier, even becoming profs. Apparently the man is very visionless. His ambition is narrow and too simplistic. Just be a math teacher. Just obtain a PhD for the fun of it. A paper PhD. Truly wasted man. See as e dry like bonga fish

The man na very wicked man, collecting money from students to pass his course and they would still fail. Sleeping with female students and still fail them.
Once He doesn't like you even without doing anything wrong he'll keep failing you.

But you will all agree with me if he had listen to his uncle might have been in an oil and gas Industry probably a manager now raking millions monthly. We should listen to the words of the elders they have seen things we haven't.

Actually some education are societally valueless. Like this one. That man will be retiring soon if not already. Given his age ( he talked about studying in the era of Old Western Region), his PhD which took 25 years to obtain in 2016, will only be useful for less than 5 years. That's total crap.

UmecheMoses:
This was how Unibuja nearly turned my 4 year B. Sc. Into 5. Useless strikes and lecturer madness with missing scripts.
If you are a young person under 30 reading this,
Please do yourself a favour. Legitimately plan to leave Nigeria.
Most of the students who schools gave 3rd class and 2-2 have gone to the UK And US to graduate with 1st class in second degrees or Masters. Our education here doesn't prepare you to acquire and deploy knowledge, instead it serves two purposes.
1. As a means of stratifying society by making sure certain population occupy certain estates at a given time and.
2. It is a system to employ jobbless graduates and makes money for the Government.

Even above 30 please leave. You are much appreciated outside Nigeria.

i taya ooo... the man is a slow poke... he even got scholarship outside the country but cannot hustle for his transportation.... he is here making Phd look like a masquerade... am starting mine this year

Not motivating at all.

See! He is taking his vengeance on innocent students. I have no pity for him.

Where did you miss the fact that states he has been lecturing all along?

When he would have been in Engineering establishment in a managerial position. I learnt a lot from this post.

Sezua:

But not as a PhD holder until 2016. His PhD will be deployed in teaching for only a limited amount of time due to age.

Its obvious you're clueless and uneducated with your relentless ethnic colouration of a decent inspiring story.
What have you achieve in your fake life since you left home
Every human being has a different story during career journey, except for those who unfortunately can't live to share their experiences.
Seek wisdom and courtesy to understand the journey of life is full of various challenges !

I achieved a heck of a lot, actually. Including a PhD in 3.5 years, over 70 publications, a humongous house in Trumpland, and a dollar salary in 6 digits. I hope you die of envy.

BTW, the fact that this story inspires you shows how visionless and unambitious you are. Loser!

What has been his impact in d society

BiggyB242:

Everybody in my family thinks am lazy just because of always looking for easy way to do stuff. They said am not serious

Some (like "TEMPLEHOUSE" actually found it motivating. Irony of life

astrodome:


Smart Okoros with vision. Unlike the visionless Oluomo who spent 25 years to obtain a worthless Nigerian PhD at an old age.

Quite surprising that you have showed your real image here as one of the gullible IPOB faithfuls.
You're a typical example of those who enjoys hawking Fan Milk and Gala at Ojuelegba, with the hope of getting richer like Chief Arthur, Iwuanyanwu or Orji Kalu when you have opportunities to acquire more knowledge and skills.
Is that your smart vision of being Okoros
Go and read Things Fall Apart (Chinua Achebe) and learn about "Eze agadi Nwayi"

This makes me want to cry. Nothing motivating about this. Withing those years, people like malala have been born, won a peace prize. Some have left a long lasting impression on humanity. People have made enough wealth.Nothing to celebrate here. It just reflects the country Nigeria. Wasted years and dreams.

I take nothing positive out of this. Late achievement is a dream killer.

Depending on how you say it...
The issue is about Relentless and not to abandon your dream.Life is cruel to some people, believe me!
I have seen a guy who had just completed his NYSC and got a job immediately while his brother had not secure a 20K job since graduation 5 years ago.
It took the Israelis 40 years for a 40 days journey because there are challenges on the way.

Loser! And blind too. His visionary colleagues who left to study abroad were Okoros. They aren't hawking gala.

Jayslicky:
Meanwhile somewhere else during that space, a man called aliko dangote making money and creating employment, preparing a better future for his children, he has made more impact than many professors accumulating unnecessary certificates that have no use to the progress of the society.

You are wrong. Different people have different priorities. Education was what he wanted and he was willing to pay the price to acquire it. I respect him.
