worked for the American car company General Motors.
He was a senior creative designer at GM, until his
appointment as the Director general of the Nigerian
Automotive Design and Development Council.

So young!

He looks old. If his age hadn't been mentioned, I would have thought mid 30s. He's probably grown his beards and mustache to make him look older.

This is strange. Texas is a Republican state, a state with no state taxes and without the overbearing regulations that hamper California. It's a miracle he won that ticket as a Democrat.

Can it turn Democrat with the continuous inflow of Hispanics to the state? Only the future can tell.

If he grew up here in Naija…
Nairalanders would assure us that he is lying about his age!

Not really Dallas County is very much a Democrat area. Its been that way for at least a decade.

You have not been following,Texas is becoming more and more democratic they have started voting in Democrats and they recently had big wins in local elections.It is because if young voters and changing demographics favouring minorities which is why Democrats have started doing well in southern states like Georgia,Arizona and Texas.Why won't government tax the people politics is changing and the people moving into Texas vote democratic too a lot of analyst have pointed this out that Texas is trending Democratic

Since we can't appreciate what we have by voting competent people to power in Africa, the whites will show us how to do it.

If Obama contested an election in Kenya, he would lose to an old man.

We forget that the older someone gets the slower he becomes physically and mentally, Nigeria is moving slow (if at all it's moving) today because we have not just old people but incompetent old people in power.

Congrats to this young man. Don't disappoint the black race
Joe Biden is 78, so it's not necessarily by age!
Re: Nigerian Steve Ezeonu Wins City Council Election In Texas by otuomasirichi: 10:17pm On Jun 07, 2021
cool cool cool

This is Merit and not Quota system.

If it was in Nigeria, Buhari and his Cabals will give it to a Northerner that does not know his left or right.

I keep saying it, Buhari, Pantami, Garba Shehu, Adamu Garba and his fellow Cow Republic of Nigeria, are the problem of Nigeria.

If you separate the North from Nigeria, Nigeria will get better. As far as the Northerners are in Nigeria, Nigeria will never get better.

Take it to the Bank
cool

Hispanics voted Republicans in this election.
Republicans swept away traditional Democrats counties and municipalities in this election.

People it's just city council.....chill out, we have many Africans on city councils and other city positions throughout the USA, honestly not a big deal, some people don dey fight and curse their tribal mates over nothing, population fo the city is about 210,000 not even up to Ikeja. Good achievement but the next step is for the man to make it to the state level and hopefully continue to rise. This is where he has to make compromises and dine with the devil.....politics sha grin grin grin grin

Just off the top of my head…

Jelani Aliyu won plaudits and awards while at Ford Motors in the US.
And only recently, Prof. Ibrahim Abubakar was appointed Dean at University College London.

Pretty sure that are several others.

Exactly! Trump was 70 years when he was elected…
And Biden’s closest Democratic challenger (Sanders) was 78.

I got your memo, boss.

But we're the only people of earth who will rather pay not to learn from history but to repeat it, that's why the holiest of holy, Buhari ain't bothered if the country goes the way of Somalia. Some of us are of the notion that 2023 may likely be a rude reawakening but trust me for few cups of rice and maybe few naira notes some will ditch their rights and continue with the blame game.

Seriously though, regardless of ethnicity, it’s always good to counterbalance these types of stories against those like that of (for example) Invictus Obi or Abidemi Rufai. Of course, one difference might be that this dude was likely US-raised, but (speaking from PERSONAL experience) the Nigerian cultural traits of self-ambition, self-assurance, doggedness and determination, even in the face of odds (combined with an appreciation for personal achievement), still runs deep in the diasporic blood.

Naija no dey carry last - except here in Nigeria!!

Igbo cultural traits of self ambition and determination.
