16. He currently works as a consultant at Boston Consulting Group (BCG).

What is Boston Consulting Group (BCG)? Boston Consulting Group, Inc. (BCG) is an American global management consulting firm founded in 1963 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. BCG is one of the Big Three (or MBB, the world's three largest management consulting firms by revenue) along with McKinsey & Company and Bain & Company.

He spent just 5 years of his life on intense hardwork, dedication and self discipline while studying at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) to set a record that opens doors for him for all the rest of his life!

It's worth it after all. If you are extremely gifted & brilliant and you know what is best for you, choose UNILAG, ensure you work very hard to meet the high standards of admission requirements of UNILAG like making complete O'level result at once in a single sitting, compulsory minimum of credit O'level pass in further maths and high UTME JAMB score, study very hard to pass the Post UTME and seal your admission. While at UNILAG, ditch social media, keep great company and study like kilode till you finish with great grades then you are made for the rest of your life niyen!

The UNILAG brand behind your attainment will immediately push you on the global stage!

Just before his NYSC, he is already made for life with prestigious scholarships, published
book to his name and being sought after by global brands for job placement.

U now even mention his course of study

blowjohn:
Ur joking or trolling

Bosun was 2000 set yeah?

I had peeps in ISI, so you know

HBB1:
Bosun was 2000 set yeah?

I had peeps in ISI, so you know

Bros I was 2002 set.

I may have made a mistake when he finished. Bosun was my senior.
Our principal was Mrs E. A. Smith.


Are u happy now?

Racoon:
What a guru. Congratulations son. They won't reward him good now to immortalise and promote the dignity of hard work and genuine success. If nah BBN wey person go promote nudity and sexual promiscuity, they will be splashing millions in the person.

Apples to oranges. Those who sponsor BBN do so for commercial purposes. David has been rewarded for his academic excellence by working for an elite company and garnering three scholarships.

Everyone cannot be academically exceptional.

WERE ARE THE MUMU PEOPLE THAT ARE SAYING EDUCATION NA SCAM? COME AND SEE YOUR MATE USING HIS BRAIN TO ATTAIN GREATER HEIGHTS.

BUT NA YAHOO YAHOO U DEY DO!

blowjohn:
The most interesting fact here is that he graduated from the international School, university of Ibadan.
My alma mater.

That's to me still the best secondary school in the history of this country. Quote me if u like, even this guy can't stand toe to toe with his former seniors like bosun adeoti and his colleagues.

Hasty generalisation. Besides, David just started his journey. No one knows where he will be in a decade's time.

For the records, I remember ISI was once ranked 3rd best secondary school in the country back then.

Students that year ehn.

Dem dey break records for SAT exams.

I remember bosun came out tops in the world in SAT 2

Impressive. Bosun studied at MIT for both his BSc and MSc. He has been working at Google for more than a decade. He must be exceptionally brilliant.

CSTRR:
His father is a professor in the same department where he got 5.0 and lectured him in four of his Courses.

It's alright. I laugh in man know man.

Was the father also influential in him acing his other courses? Did the father also teach Ayodele Dada who was the first 5.0 grad from the same Unilag? Was the father a lecturer to the Law grad from LASU with the same grade? What about the girl from Cell Biology who had a similar grade?

Children whose parents are/were professors or even teachers tend to pick up traits (nature vs nuture) while growing up. As a result, they perform excellently in school. David is just the norm, not the exception. In fact, most top grads from elite universities in the US had/have academics as parents.

CSTRR:
I am not saying he is not naturally brilliant.

But his father being a professor and his lecturer in the same department would have played a huge part in his CGPA, especially in this corruption ridden Nigeria.

He may not even have gotten a first class in a different university.

Total nonsense!

He graduated from a top secondary school, did foundation courses in Unilag and aced all his courses brilliantly! I ask again, was the father a lecturer to other 5.0 CGPA grads from the same university? Recently, Deborah from Landmark University graduated with the same 5.0 CGPA in Mechanical Engineering. Did David's father teach her too?

Most of you people talk stoopidly and foolishly. This guy performed excellently across all levels and currently works in an elite firm. Does his father work at Boston Consulting Group?

CSTRR:
He had a lot of undue advantage.
That's a fact, that even he himself would not deny if he is honest.

No parent would not want to give their children an advantage, if it is within their power.

It's not even very ethical for him to gain admission in the same department where his father is a professor but that's a question for saner climes.

That's my own valedictorian.

Go and tell that to Boston Consulting Group.

Bloody retard!

Impressive.

spiSeyi:
If it will give a good job it is worth it else Agbero might live better than him. CGPA doesn't make sense in the Nigeria labor market nah God's grace + man know man + ability to solve real-life problems, and Nigeria universities don't equip anyone with modern skills all is to read & pass and then get 1st class

A management consultant at any of the MBBs is an elite job anywhere in the world. McKinsey receives more job applications than Google. It is the holy grail of paid employment. This guy works for a direct competitor and I can recall Ayodele Dada, the first 5.0 grad, was invited to the opening ceremony when BCG opened its Nigerian office.

Congratulations to the young man... David Oluwatomiwa Akanmu.

easytig:
His dad na prof for engineering dept, definitely he was aided to his first class by his dad's fellow lecturers.they will want to be careful when marking his script .
If his dad was not a professor he won't smell 5.0 gpa.
Those vultures will mark him down ,if you know you know.

Why did they not mark Ayodele Dada down as well? What about the boy from Systems Engineering and girl from Cell Biology who had the same grade?

blowjohn:
Abadina college also won best in Waec
One school like that in Moniya also won.

I finished in 2002 after then all the teachers were sacked and stuffs like that.

So am still happy someone frm my alma mater is making waves

Why were the teachers sacked? And what happened to them afterwards? Where did the teachers end up?

alfarouq:
congrats Engr. All the best in your future endeavors.

By the way OP, you did not mention about his Jamb score. I am interested because there is a debate we once heard about people that score the highest in Jamb are definitely brilliant but there are candidates' more brilliants than them who did not emerge as highest jamb scorer. I have observed with most best graduating students, while their Jamb scores are usually great, they do better overall CGPA than some people that usually have higher Jamb scores than them.

You mean this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/7763389/top-jamb-scorers-where-today ?

David, just like Ayodele Dada, entered Unilag in 200L. With this, they avoided general courses, which could have hurt their grades trajectories. However, two other graduates from Unilag from Systems Engineering and Cell Biology respectively also had the same grade. The question would be to know if these two persons entered via JAMB. Another missing aspect is David's WASSCE grades. It is important to know that as well. Did he have the most As?

Boomboost:
I'm Ibibio and a mature fellow, but I wish I was born in the West...

They will slaughter you for this that's if they've not done that already, in their minds (I'm glad Seun have clip some of their wings) they would have sleepless nights explaining what is needed to you.

Nauttyprof:
So, if his dream is to join Unilag, he shouldn't because of his father? Should also risk his safety because of his father?

Also, remember that there are courses he did outside his department too. Will you say his father also influenced them too?

Don't mind that retard!

I am sure he thinks Ayodele Dada cheated as well in school and even bribed his way into Stanford. There is a growing number of 5.0 graduates, with Unilag having the most numbers - 4. Covenant University has I think 2, and when her sister university Landmark is included, that makes it three.

Gerrard59:

They have this governing body like that. Can't remember if they wanted them to have PhDs or they had a new governing council.

But I remember some of them ended up in one secondary school like around Bodija that that were more than ready to absorb them.

ISI boys no dey carry last.

Kokorokomanaoga:
wahala!!!
The only advantage my roomie had is, from primary school he already knew he would study civil engineering too due to his dad's influence so he strictly followed that part that as a secondary school student he had already read almost all the materials he needed from ND1 Till HND.
As a secondary school student his dad was already homeschooling him, giving him materials, in fact all the materials are surplus at home, from text books to drawing materials, measurement materials etc.

His dad even bought a desktop computer for him and his elder bro's to learn chart drawing and all those civil engineering drawings.
As a sec schooo student he could map and draw better than most HND students graduates.

Dude got admitted to auchi polytechnic and came out with distinction without breaking a sweat, dude normally tells me every class is just like a revision to him.

It is why I called him a retard!

It is a global phenomenon for children whose parents are academics or even primary school teachers to perform excellently in academics. Most Harvard professors had parents who were also professors. Even Nobel laureates, their children later become academics and some even win prizes. See Milton Friedman. There is nothing wrong with it. Even cancelling out nature because of genetics, nurture because of environment confers that advantage to such children.

The retard has been lamenting that David's dad influenced his grades. But ask him if David's dad also influenced the 5.0 grad from Systems Engineering? Did David's father, a professor of Civil Engineering, teach Ayodele Dada, a 5.0 graduate of Psychology? What course did the girl who had 5.0 in Cell Biology learn from David's dad?

See why I said he is a retard?!

seguno2:
Education is NOT key anymore.

If in doubt, please ask MC Oluomo, Auxiliary and other thugs who we allow to enrich themselves at our expense and select our public servants, who then make every policy that applies to us all.

Try to get a LinkedIn account. You would find yourself totally wrong. Nigerians are using their skills learnt in and outside school to create global impact. You just have to think outside Nigeria and regard yourself a global citizen.

blowjohn:
Bosun was my senior. He was highest in jamb.
And highest in Waec.

In fact for Waec they had to remark bosun papers and another guy from another school at the behest of our principal then.

If I recall he scored 349 in jamb back then. And we all knew the story back then. He deliberately didn't want to score too high.

Guy. Bosun came second in SAT 1
And first in SAT 2.

Before heading off to MIT after tonnes of scholarships he beat everyone in unilag in engineering in his first semester....



Oya counter me

Bosun was my set in Unilag. He had all A'S and 1B while two guys in his dpt(Chemical Engr) had all A'S.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/bosun-adeoti-1757545/

Not hasty.
U know jamb of the late 90s to early 2000s was no joke.

Bosun broke and heald the record for many years.
Also had best Waec result
Won the national essay competition that year too.
Then his first semester at OAU? UNILAG( CAN'T REMEMBER WHICH) he had the best results.
Then wrote SAT and was 2nd in the world.
Then wrote SAT 2 and was first in the world.

Got scholarships, went to MIT and was 2nd best student there.

Thats why I said this guy can't stand toe to toe with bosun. All the achievements I mentioned are all secondary school feats.

If we're talking about the future, ofcos David can show the world better achievements.


But pre university things? Bosun stands .
By the way bosun was beating his classmates with 0.5,1 or 2 marks. If bosun came tops on let's say maths with 99 marks over 100, there will be about 3 people scoring 98.5, another 3 scoring 97 etc.
Crazy set. Because of him ISI introduced 2nd and 3rd place prizes.

blowjohn:
Bros I was 2002 set.

Are u happy now?

You obviously are making mistakes.
I knew Mrs Smith personally.

HBB1:

Whatever mistakes I made doesn't make my submissions invalid.

U knowing Mrs Smith is different from u attending the school.


Mrs Smith won't spend her time telling u about her school

That boy is young enough to be your son and he's adding value to humanity, making a success of his life while you squat on nairaland typing nonsense and destroying the future of your nation by running PR for useless criminals.

I spit on your very essence, you're such a despicable soul

opamoses1:
Bosun is with google in the US. If it's the same Bosun Adeoti, he also had the highest score in JAMB in 1999. Got admissions into OAU Elect Elect program, but travelled to the US before resumption.

Not 1999. Year 2000.

blowjohn:
Yes. 3 times for Waec.

For jamb, bosun adeoti held the record for many many years 347 or 349 back in 2000 or so.


Ibadan was hot then O.


Abadina college also won best in Waec
One school like that in Moniya also won.

I finished in 2002 after then all the teachers were sacked and stuffs like that.

So am still happy someone frm my alma mater is making waves

Oshey! Set awon Larry J, Segun Bashorun and Daniel Onimisi
