yorubas claiming kogi state.
The okun pple of kogi state are Yoruba. They reside in kabba, kogi state. I am married to one. His first, middle and surnames are Yoruba. Him and his family only speak Yoruba dialect. Pls are u trying to say he's Igala? And have u ever heard any Yoruba claiming kogi state as a yoruba state? There are loads of villages and tribes in kogi state. I believe its d most diverse state in Nigeria.

It's the HIV of the mathematical world.

Until reputable media circulate the news. It remains a fraudulent news.
Few weeks ago, the media was awash with cure of sickle cell by a Nigeria hospital..meanwhile the said procedure has been around for a while.
The Nigeria media needs to retool and retrain its staff
point of correction d cure 4 sickle cell has been around 4 a while which is stem cell transplant, the nigerian hospitals are just catching up, the 1st successful surgery in Nigeria was done last yr in University of benin teaching hospital last yr, d 1 u r talking of is in UITH where they discovered a less rigorous way of doing d surgery without putting much strain on d patient

I googled the name Dr Opeyemi Enoch and was expecting him to be feted by the international media for making a such groundbreaking stride.

To my chagrin it was the motley of Nigerian blogsites reporting the news.

This so-called solution get serious k-leg. How can an epoch making intellectual feat that can possibly fetch the doer unparalleled international recognition at par with the Nobel Prize just fly under the radar just like that?

Nigerians and their mental laziness...

It's so pathetic as to how you peddled tribalism just to truncate a claim or simple fact. If the name up there was an igbo name I'm sure you will be a positive commentator and an avenue to unleash your everlasting issult on the SW....the same google you claim brought out only local blogs was the same mechanism that brought out "globaljournalism.org and other sites that are not local, all you did was to go through the first page and your research work is done. What a pity.

Instead of looking for cheap avenue to contravene a fact just to score cheap negative point and promulgate ethinic and tribal bigotry which always leads to hostile environment why don't create a merit driven society deviod of these social menace. Or is it an abomination to foster ethnic unity? Smh

Shows us where Yorubas have a problem with the bolded?

Lmao we said GEJ used the igbo nation [Azikwe] to wipe his azz during his tenure. Why don't you ask him why he uses GEJ instead of GAJ or GEAJ.

Edos are not Yorubas. They're cousins to Yoruba. Why would he claim such?

As for Kwara and Kogi, Yorubas there have no disclaim their heritage. We're not forcing the claim on them, they're the ones coming forward.

The ones you asked are probably not Yoruba......because 80% of Kogi are non-Yorubas, likewise about 30% of Kwarans are non-Yorubas. No one is arguing those facts.

You igbos should stop speaking for Kwarans and Kogites.....you sound pathetic and foolish. Your attempt to claim every SS oil lands and to diassociate non-SW Yorubas from the Yoruba group makes you look like the butt joke of Nigeria. I'm sure one igbo ghost ID here will create a thread tomorrow about how he[Kwaran] is not Yoruba.

Don't kill yourself over nothing.

We are human first before Igbo, Hausa or Yoruba.

Also, if I had the power to chose my tribe, I would have Chosen England (London precisely).

Opeyemi, Sonyika e.t.c are what they are as a result of hardwork and God's grace and NOT simply because they are yorubas.

We still have yorubas, Igbos and Hausas who are dummies and those who are exceptionally intelligent.

Being yoruba will not help your life in any way if you choose to lazy around.

I agree with you...I think probably his presentation at the International conference on mathematics and computer science was fantastic.. hence the loud ovations from Nigeria Media... I'm sure he will still publish in Journal of known repute.

I'm correcting your ignorance.

If you have problem with SS denying igbo heritage, take it up with them.

We Yorubas aren't dashing out heritages......

If I had the power to chose my tribe, I'd pick Yoruba again and again.

Yoruba is beyond Nigeria/UK/US.

He is a northerner from kogi state, thats good for. Goodnews you. Just kogites in vanguard are just commenting now. Should be Okun ethnic of kabba zone or oworo tribe people from oworosoki (where dangote's cement is located). They are just funny. It is also common for THE igbirras that lives toward the okuns to bear such name. Battle of three ethnic kogi tribes. I initial thought he is an ekiti man. Just google search now no real info about this on their website. He claim a paper presentation not even on mathematics intl journal page.THE boy I AM QUOTING IS EVEN MORE THAN IDIOT AS HE REFERED TO THE IGBOS AND KANU. Nairaland boy.

I would advise yorubas on here to chill wt d bragging. I am yoruba and i know this is not who we are. Just because ur trying to prove a point to some braggers dt have bn dissing you on nairaland doesnt mean we all need to now start throwing some "superior tribe" nonsense in pples faces. Its cringeworthy & disgusting coming from them and its cringeworthy & disgusting coming from you.

All of you are so foolish you should slap yourselves!!! Chai; see them fighting over South West and The yEAST on something that is not even true.

First of all, it takes two years for a proof of a millenium prize problem to be validated, and prize awarded (Global standard), ask Grigori perelmann after he solved the poincare conjecture, Or andrew wiles

and the only people spreading this lie from the pit of hell are Nigerian News carriers

The hardest mathematical problem in the world has been solved and the all hell has not broken lose already, nothing on Bbc, wikipedia or dailies

so Mr opeyemi solved the riemann hypothesis( of all problems) in NOV 11 and got his award 5 days later?? Una dull sha,

well i dont blame you all sha; when Nigerians will not read

i'm sure if some American/European/Asian profs see this, they might just lose their heads from laughing!!!

And to say its even on front page!!!!!
