This woman herself has denied being the 1st black woman with PhD in aerospace engineering.

Her research was funded by several organizations including the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), American Institute for Aeronautics & Astronautics (AIAA) and Texas Space Grant Consortium (TSGC).

See the way org with repute invest so much on her.

She proved promising and she was given the max level of support.

There are promising nigerian with he country here but who lack the necessary funding to drive them, something the nig govt is never interested in

nice at 26!

someone here told me yesterday that his family is just okay having their own daughter being a full house wife with an almost Nigerian first class degree - whatever that means grin


there is nothing wrong with what he said,as long as the degree holder is not forced into doing nothing, its just her choice........everyone mustn't become great and all great people in this world didn't all achieve greatness through academics........ Its very good to go to school and strive for a better tomorrow but that's not a sure bet that one will be successful....... In summary ,what am trying to say is that if a lady decides to grace a man's house as a house wife ,and it makes her happy and fulfilled then its not a bad thing

if I wooz you eh, liars, wicked haters!!! angry angry

Have you ever visited any Igbo state

Cowards being scared of their evil deeds!

Clear conscience fears no accusation or attack!

Igbos have clear conscience so they travel everywhere, live everywhere, invest everywhere they go without being cunning & scared of attack, but Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani Never! They are always scared of attack, scared of their evil shadow! scared of investing in other regions because they have evil mind and dark conscience.

You know the truth.
Although am not an Igbo person per se but the part of Delta I came from has very close language and tradition with the Igbos. But here is the thing, How come the Igbo in senatorial sit, Governors and Highly rich business Igbo men do not talk like you're doing instead they are more friendly and accommodating than people like you.
Second during the time of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, he placed many Igbo women and men in ministerial and high position. At that point in time, Yoruba did not complain, Hausa did not complain.
In fact I have nothing against the Igbo because to some extent I believe they are my distant relatives but I am just here saying what I have observed over time.

As a yoruba guy, I admire and envy Igbos a lot.

Igbos are highly talented and successful. This is how educated people should be celebrated not like here in the south west where educated elected officials will glorify a renowned thug and killer mc oluomo and our foolish youths on social media will hail him..yoruba ronu!


Igbos rock jaree cool

Never blame the women who go about selling things. Many of them have suffered in the hands of useless men who promise them jobs but ended up messing them up. The level of mediocrity in our society leaves them with no other option than to get engaged doing something. Its a messed up system...
