Those ones that the bloggers over hype, you got first class, it is over hype, you work in Microsoft, it is over hype, you work in a robotics center, in Nigeria, it kinda of genius, this things are normal stuff but in Nigeria, it is remarkable.

If Nigerian Phd Know their Onions, how come there is no invention from any of them

Phd is all about research that can bring new inventions like new drugs, new sceintific way of doing things etc but how come we see nothiing here in Nigeria.

NwaAmaikpe:




Stay back in Nigeria.
Apart from those people that scratch you at night when you're asleep, life in Ogbomosho is better than life in UK.

SniperSmurf:
UK and rules

OkCornel:


Really, so absolutely no Nigerian PhD holders has done anything useful as regards research and inventions the last 2 years right? Or in any instance for that matter?

lilwetdick:


The Phd Holders will be gotten from mostly Eastern European countries

Nobody Needs a Nigerian Phd Holder that cant even improve his home society

Most Nigerian Phd holders are just Certificate Phd Holders, Research dem no fit do, Certificate oppression is their main occupation

lilwetdick:


mention 5 Nigerian Phd Researchers that has invented something in the last 2 years

quickly:


They will select eastern/ Western European ( Italian French) then Asian ( Chinese South Korea Malaysia ) Arab ( Saudi, Iran etc) North African before Nigeria.


Pakistani and Indian also

lilwetdick:


Which Brighest among us are they taking

Brightest among us but they cant develop their country

Do we even have research facilities, When the UK are looking for Phd researchers in specific Field they go to Eastern Europe.

Inventions/Innovations: Dr Ibrahim is the inventor and patent holder of an insect control technology for the control of whitefly in tropical crops using RNA interference, with patent deposited at the Brazilian Industrial Property Organization. He co-led a Research Project, under the Africa-Brazil program that led to the establishment of the first biobalistic facility in Northern Nigeria, 2012-2014.

Will you contribute your salary as grant for research?!

No dey talk rubbish abeg!

lilwetdick:


when did my salary become grant research, they can use their own salary for grant research.

there are thousands of people applying for grant research, they dont have 2 heads, they can apply too.

trilobite:


I know Nigerian UK PhD holders some lecturing there some came back (one planning to go back again for lecturing due to nepotism frustration). Don't look down too much on your country. We don't have the facilities but we have the brains.

midnighter:


This is what upper-class elites do ie. thats how Buhari trained his kids but they still came back to become le creme de la creme over here and not an anonymous over there

Unfortunately Nigeria's middle-class has been steadily destroyed over the past 40 years. those are the ones who emigrate after being short-changed and exploited...graduating + nysc but still struggling, medium-sized business owners being victimised and such

Otherwise most people wouldnt feel like going except for tourism

Besides, western elements have been tampering in Nigerian infrastructures to make our systems fail so that they will be able to poach our resources, both human and otherwise

trilobite:


From the Nigerian government?!! How many? Compared to grants available in the developed world?

lilwetdick:


you mention only 1 remaining 4

Gerrard59:


Please explain how western countries are "tampering" with Nigeria's infrastructure but cannot do same with say Indian or Chinese infrastructures? Or are you not going to hold Nigerians responsible for the nation's decay but rather hold westerners?

I agree. Nigeria is not as bad as we have painted it. Just take a step back and really ask yourself what you want out of life. I just moved to Ibadan and it is not bad at all.

Omowumi Sadik

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omowunmi_Sadik

A postdoctoral fellowship from the National Research Council supported her as a researcher at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency from 1994 to 1996.She then accepted a position as an assistant professor of chemistry at the Binghamton University in Binghamton, New York. She was promoted to associate professor in 2002, and full professor in 2005. At that time, she also became director of the Center for Advanced Sensors & Environmental Systems (CASE) at Binghamton. She has been visiting faculty at the Naval Research Laboratories, Cornell University, and Harvard University.

Sadik studies surface chemistry, with particular emphasis on the development of biosensors for use in environmental chemistry. She has found that conducting polymers are especially promising for use in sensing applications. She has developed microelectrode biosensors sensitive to trace amounts of organic materials, technology which can be used for drug and bomb detection. She is also studying detoxification mechanisms of wastes such as organochlorine compounds in the environment, with the purpose of developing technologies for recycling metal ions from industrial and environmental waste. In one project, microbial enzymes increased the conversion of highly toxic chromium (VI) to non-toxic chromium (III) from 40% to 98%. Sadik is credited with more than 135 peer-reviewed research papers and patent applications. She holds U.S. patents on particular types of biosensors. In 2011, she was the chair of the inaugural Gordon Conference on Environmental Nanotechnology. In 2012, Sadik and Barbara Karn co-founded the Sustainable Nanotechnology Organization, a non-profit, international professional society for the responsible use of nanotechnology worldwide.
