Mod, do the needed. The world need to know.

If you are going to be foolish, no take your foolishness to that depth, you go turn to vegetable.

No matter how stupid you want to be, try and have some little sense.

Here is the First Black African to graduate from Oxford, and he was not Nigerian. He was in Oxford before they gave birth to Ojukwu's father's father.

Here is the First Black African woman to graduate from Oxford, she is Nigerian. She was in Oxford before they gave birth to Ojukwu. Now try and use a cell in your brain to think how many Naija men would have graduated from Oxford before her who was already in Oxford before Ojukwu was born.

My post which you all quoted was in response to the false claims the OP Koning made in his later post as seen bolded above. It was not a response to his original post which is factual that Dilibe Onyeama was the 1st black to graduate at Eton.

What is a blatant lie is that Dilibe Onyeama was the first Black in Eton. That glory goes to Tokunbo Akintola who passed the exam that Dilibe failed, allowing Akintola to take the glory that should have been jointly shared by both if Dilibe had passed and enrolled at the same time Tokunbo Akintola did.

As for Tokunbo Akintola not finishing there, we all know his father was killed in the January 1966 coup which ensured the 2 boys never became friends since the killers of SLA Akintola were from the same tribe as Dilibe Onyeama.

Also, the claim that Emeka Ojukwu who graduated from Oxford in 1955 was the first Black man and Nigerian in Oxford, is belied by verifiable fact that Christian Cole from Sierra Leone was the first Black/African man at Oxford in 1873, while Kofoworola Ademola (nee Moore) was the first Black/African woman and the first ever Nigerian at Oxford university, and she graduated in 1935 when Emeka Ojukwu was yet to be 2yrs old.

So next time, implore the OP Koning to not embellish the facts of a matter by adding lies to the truth.

The truth is never nasty or blind, and does not need to fear God.


Give it to onyeama for being the first to graduate, not a dropout like whoevery you're trying to put the glory on. I didn't read up ur epistle.. Don't bore me with boring arguments

You mean at the time a Yoruba boy had already passed the exam that Dilibe Onyeama failed and had to resume 1 year behind his Yoruba agemate?

You should be ashamed.

But when the time came, Onyeama failed the entrance exams. Another Nigerian boy, Tokunbo Akintola, thus became the first black student in Eton, attracting global media attention.

I don't expect an ignoramus who is finding it hard to grasp and comprehend facts, to bother with a tasking activity such as reading.

Where do you see me disputing that Dilibe Onyeama was the 1st Black/African to graduate?

I specifically challenge 2 lies that Dilibe Onyeama was the 1st Black/African at Eton, and that Ojukwu was the first Black/African at Oxford.

Why are you so traumatized that I challenged a lie with historical facts?

You mention dropout as though the young Akintola failed an exam and had to withdraw?

The same Tokunbo Akintola who passed the entrance exam that Dilibe Onyeama failed such that Dilibe had to try his luck the next year and resume 1 year behind his agemate?

For your information, the father of Tokunbo Akintola, SLA Akintola who was the Premier of Western Nigeria, was killed by Igbo soldiers in Jan 1966 coup, within 2 years of Tokunbo's scholarship at Eton.

Was Ademoyega responsible for any of the deaths? Was Ademoyega responsible for the Killing of Non-Igbo politicians while the Igbo Premier of the Eastern Region had the luxury of hosting the murderous Ifeajuna and left the meeting alive when Ifeajuna did not leave any of his targets alive in Lagos?

Is Nwobosi that killed SLA Akintola not Igbo?

Oga, Ojukwu was not the first black / African to attend or graduate from Oxford.

Perhaps, you should do a research on Christian Frederick Cole. He was not just the first black to graduate from Oxford, but also the first black barrister to practice in the English courts.

Mr. Cole left Oxford in 1880. Had Ojukwu being born then, let alone attend kindergarten?

I repeat that I corrected a lie of "1st Black to attend" by the OP which was never discussed in the news, and not the factual history of "1st Black to graduate", which was clearly stated in the news.

My surprise is that you are angry that I corrected a lie, including the Ojukwu lie about 1st Black at Oxford?

Why are you hurt about facts, but not hurt about the lie from the OP that I corrected?

Could it be that my factual history diminished your joy? You wanted to be joyful over a lie?

Should I see blatant lies on a forum that I can make my own submission and let it pass so that "miseducated" youth like yourself can rejoice over embellished facts and outright falsehood?

How can you be educated if the truth angers you?
