Congratulations to the ones mentioned. We are a remarkable people and would do even more if the necessary infrastructure and support exists.

The criteria for this recognition is publishing in top journals, but many of the top journals requires not just an evidence of competence or relevance in your work or study or research, they also want money… so you pay to get published in many of the remarkable journals.

In the most cited universities in the Stanford study, or generally top universities worldwide, the university has a fund set aside for helping researchers publish in the high end journals, all the researchers has to bother on really is the actual study—/ , this is not so in Nigeria federal universities, some of the Nigeria based scholars you see, listed, paid the money out of their very limited resources to sponsor the research in the absence of a grant, they paid out of their meagre resources to publish the paper in an high end journal.

And this speaks to the passion of our academia in the country. There could be a lot more, if universities provide the necessary resources or were provided the necessary resources. And so if a private university, say covenant university recognizes rightly that publication in high end journals, relevant researches is the way to becoming an Ivy League contender, they put the resources to it, attract the best minds from our public universities, giving them the right incentives and they are up there. This is already ongoing, and it has been at the cost of quality to our federal universities.

ASUU is hoping to address it, but while they can get the government to commit, they can’t force the hand of the government to act beyond such commitment.

Again, we have to put our academics in a decent pedal, and pay them not necessarily what is obtainable everywhere better than our universities, but create a system that aids the visibility of their research outputs.

So I know we could do much more, I think we are not doing close to our capability in our universities or research institutions, I think the reason is because survival is the foremost need of most of the employees in such institutions; you cannot afford a decent neighbourhood, you cannot afford a creche for your child based on your salary, you have a non existent laboratory and yet they do remarkable studies, with the facilities they have...but between survival and the cost of publishing in high end journals, Maslow says rightly that survival is foremost.


You can access the study here: https://elsevier.digitalcommonsdata.com/datasets/btchxktzyw/3

However, I did a break down…

So there is the list that is based on authors career and about 186, 178 names are listed

Using Excel, I probed the data a little further. 162 countries are listed.

While the USA has 75,899 individuals listed, the UK has 17, 237 listed, Australia has 6369, Canada has 8127, China has 6943, Germany has 9986, France has 5912 listed, India has 2042, Japan has 7362,

In Africa, South Africa has 669 names listed, Egypt has 327 names, Nigeria has only 73 names listed which represents less than 0.04% globally.

In Nigeria, 12 are from UI, 8 from UNN, 6 from Covenant, 5 from FUTA, IITA has 4, ABU has 3 names respectively…no other university in Nigeria has above 3 names. Harvard University alone has about 1717 researchers listed.


while there is another list based on authors output just for the year 2020 and about 190, 064 names are listed. Again, using excel, I probed the data a little further.

About 165 countries were listed.

Australia has 7140 names, China has 16,604 names, Canada has 7478 names, Germany has 9434 names, France has 5272 names, UK has 15,843 names, Italy has 6126 names, Japan has 5416 names, the USA has 66,233 names listed, South Africa has 752 names listed, while Nigeria has 121 names listed which is about 0.064% globally.

In Nigeria, 17 are from UI, 8 from Covenant university, also 8 from UNN, 6 from FUTA, 5 from OAU, 4 from Landmark University, 4 from Unilag…no other university in Nigeria has up to 4 names listed. Harvard University has about 1763 names listed.

N.B for the purpose of this, Harvard university included Harvard Business School, Harvard Medical School and other Harvard affiliates. While UI includes researchers from UCH and College of Medicine, Ibadan.

There's no scientist in Nigeria. Let's stop fooling ourselves. We only have theory scientists with plenty grammar. Why hasn't any so called scientist in Nigeria discovered vaccine for malaria or covid 19 drugs? No scientist in Nigeria has built transformers, phones, X-ray machines, motor engines, photocopy machines or spaceship. We only study to have titles and depend on white man.
