Cool.

Damn!! It breaks my heart to see young, vibrant and talented Nigerians, flocking in droves abroad. 16 youths that I know are leaving by March ending, to diverse countries.
Seems na only me remain for my clique, who still believes in a better Nigeria.

Truth is, in Nigeria, that dude would have been so stressed and counted out as NOTHING! I'm happy for him. His genius would only be wasted here. At least,in the UK, he would be appreciated and live a fulfilled life.

Firstly he is British, you can't serve in another country's military as a foreigner. He is British only that he's of Nigerian decent..

"[b]He is the first non-british to be commissioned as an aero-systems specialist engineer[/b]lol.

That statement dey make me laugh and when I saw the source, I wasn't surprised. Junk journalism.
