An Igbo scholar, Dr. Samuel Okafor, has made one-
time Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, look
so small and uneducated by using facts and figures to
demolish the claims he made in the controversial
August 8 article, “The Bitter Truth About The Igbo”,
which set off a storm that almost threatened Igbo-
Yoruba relations.
In the first part of an article entitled “The Lies of
Femi Fani-Kayode”, Okafor, who has a First Class in
History from the University of Nigeria Nsukka and
then did a Ph.D in Nsukka on scholarship, dismissed
Fani-Kayode as a “half-baked intellectual.” He then
proceeded, point by point, to address what he
termed “the most reckless amongst the tangle of
reckless comments spewed by Femi, a character who
with each punch of his keypad stresses his severely
unwell conditions of logorrhoea, delusions of
enlightenment, history and sociology – amongst
others.”
Below are Okafor’s words:
FEMI AND HIS SEVERELY IGNORANT LIES:
•Femi Lies About the Yorubas Being Nigeria’s
Earliest Graduates:
From his myopic bubble Femi FaniKayode claims the
Yoruba were the first to acquire Western education;
the first ever known record of a literate Nigerian in
the English Language is the narrative of an Ibo slave
who regained his freedom and documented his life
history as a slave from the time he was 11 years old
in present day Ibo land till the time when he gained
his freedom in the middle of the 18 th century. He
later married an English woman and had 3 children.
He died in 1795.
Femi, a basic Google-research will do you good here;
check out the name, Equanoh OLAODAH. Further
Femi claims that the Yoruba were the first lawyers
and doctors in Nigeria. This is again a big falsehood.
The first Nigeria doctor was an Effik man Silas G.
Dove who obtained a medical degree from France
and returned to practise medicine in 1840 in Calabar.
This fact can also be verified from historical medical
records in Paris.
I would also ask that you google the name BLYDEN –
Edward Wilmot BLYDEN – an educated son of free Ibo
slaves who by the mid-19th century had acquired
sound theological education. He was born in Saint
Thomas in 1832. He is one of the founding
missionaries that established the Archbishop Vining
church in Ikeja. Before the next time you succumb to
your long-running battle with logorrhoea, Femi
please do some research.
What about the third president of a free Liberia –
President J JRoyle – again, a man of Ibo descent.
Please take some time to do some research so that
we can discuss constructively. It is wrong to peddle
lies to your people. It is academic fraud to knowingly
misrepresent facts just to score cheap points with
people who do not have the discipline to do research
and accept anything you pour out simply because
they say you are well educated. To again quote the
great Nobel Prize Winner in Economics Joseph
Stiglitz; Femi fits into the category of third rate
students from first rate universities with an inflated
sense of self-importance. Let’s go on!
Who was the first Nigerian Professor of Mathematics
– an Ibo man – Professor Chike Obi – the man who
solved Fermat’s Last Theorem. He was followed by
another Ibo man, Professor James Ezeilo, Professor
of Differentail Calculus and the founder of the Ezeilo
Constant. Please do some research on this great Ibo
man. He later became the Vice Chancellor of the
University of Nigeria Nsukka and one of the founders
of the Nigerian Mathematical Centre. Who was
Nigeria’s first Professor of Histroy – Professor
Kenneth Dike who published the first account of
trade in Nigeria in pre-colonial times. He was also
the first African Vice Chancellor of the University of
Ibadan. Who was the first Professor of Microbiology –
Professor Eni Njoku; he was also the first African Vice
Chancellor of the University of Lagos. Anatomy and
Physiology – Professor Chike Edozien is an Asaba man
and current Obi of Asaba. Who was the first Professor
of Anatomy at the University College Ibadan? Who
was the first Professor of Physics? Professor Okoye,
who became a Professor of Physics at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1960. He
was followed by the likes of Professor Alexander
Anumalu who has been nominated for the Nobel
Prize for Physics three times for his research in
Intermediate Quantum Physics. He was also a
founding member of the Nigerian Mathematical
Centre. Nuclear Physics and Chemistry – again
another Ibo man – Professor Frank Ndili who gained
a Ph.D in his early ’20s at Cambridge Univesity in
Nuclear Physics and Chemistry in the early ’60s. This
young Asaba man had made a First Class in Physics
and Mathematics at the then University College
Ibadan in the early ’50s. First Professor of Statistics –
Professor Adichie who’s research on Non-Parametric
Statistics led to new areas in statistical research. What
about the first Nigerian Professor of Medicine –
Professor Kodilinye – he was appointed a Professor
of Medicine at the University of London in 1952. He
later became the Vice Chancellor of the University of
Nigeria Nsukka after the war. What about Astronomy
– again another Ibo man was the first Professor of
Astronomy – please, look up Professor Ntukoju – he
was the first to earn a double Ph.D in Astronomy and
Mathematics.Let’s go to the Social Sciences – Demography and
statistical research into population studies – again
another Ibo man – Professor Okonjo who set up the
first Centre for Population Research in Ibadan in the
early ’60s. A double Ph.D in Mathematics and
Economics. Philosophy – Professor G D Okafor, who
became a Professor of Philosophy at the Amherst
College USA in 1953. Economics – Dr. Pius Okigbo
who became a visiting scholar and Professor of
Economics at the University of London in 1954. He is
also the first Nigerian Ph.D in Economics. Theology
and theological research – Professor Njoku who
became the first Nigerian to earn a Ph.D in Theology
from Queens University Belfast in Ireland. He was
appointed a Professor of Theology at the University
College Zambia in 1952.
I am still conducting research in areas such as
Geography where it seems a Yoruba man, Professor
Mabogunje, was the first Professor. I also am
conducting research into who was the first Nigerian
Professor of English, Theatre Arts, Languages,
Business and Education, Law and Engineering,
Computer Technology, etc. Nigerians need to be told
the truth and not let the lies that Femi Fani-Kayode
has been selling to some ignorant Yoruba who feel
that to be the first to see the white man and interact
with him means that you are way ahead of other
groups. The Ibo as The great Achebe said had within a
span of 40 years bridged the gap and even surpassed
the Yoruba in education by the ’60s. Many a Yoruba
people perpetually indulge in self-deceit: that they
were the first to go to school; to be exposed to
Western education; that they are academically ahead
of other Nigerian cultures of peoples. Another
ignorant lie.
As far back as 1495 the Benin Empire maintained a
diplomatic presence in Portugal. This strategic
relationship did not just stop at a mere mission but
extended to areas such as education. Scores of young
Benin men were sent out to Portugal to study and
lots of them came back with advanced degrees in
Medicine, Law and Portuguese Language, to name a
few.
Indeed, some went with their Yoruba and Ibo slaves
who served the sons of the Benin nobility while they
studied in Portugal. These are facts that can be
verified by the logs kept by ship owners in Portugal
from 1494 to 1830. It is kept at the Portuguese
Museum of Geographic History in Lisbon.
Why then would several Yoruba people peddle all
these falsehoods to show that they are ahead
educationally in Nigeria? The true facts from the
Federal Office of Statistics on education tell
otherwise, showing that 3 Ibo states for the past 12
years have constantly had the largest number of
graduates in the country, producing more graduates
than Ondo, Osun, Ekiti and Oyo states. These eastern
states are Imo, Anambra and Abia. Yet he calls Ibos
traders. Indeed, the Igbos dominate because
excellence dominates mediocrity – truth.
Let me enlighten this falsehood’s mouthpiece even
further: before the civil war Ibos controlled and
dominated all institutions in the formal sector in
Nigeria from the universities to the police to the
military to politics:
•The first Black Vice Chancellor of the University of
Ibadan was an Ibo man
•The first Vice Chancellor of the University of Lagos
was an Ibo man
•The first Nigerian Rector of the then Yaba College of
Technology was also an Ibo man
•The police was run by an Ibo IG
•The military as a professional institution was also
run by elite-ilk Ibos.
Facts can never be hidden. To be first does not mean
you would win the race; let us open up all our
institutions and may the best man win. Let us not
depend on handouts or privileges but on heard work.
Let us compete and give the best positions to our
brightest – be it Ibo, Yourba or Fulani, and then we
shall see who is the most successful Nigerian.
I find it difficult not to respond to some of these
long-held lies that are constantly being peddled by
Yorubas. One is that the Yoruba have the largest
number of professors in the country. I would again
ask that we stick to facts and statistical records. The
Nigerian Universities Commission has a record of the
state with the largest number of professors on their
records and as at 2010 that state is Imo State
followed by Ondo State and then Anambra State; the
next state is Ekiti and then Delta before Kwara State.
I am sure you Yorubas are surprised. When you sit in
the South-West do not think others are sleeping but I
wish to address another historical fact and that is who
were the first Nigerians to receive Western
education. It is important that these issues be
examined in their historical context and evidence
through research be presented for all to examine.
I have continued my research for as the great
sociologist and father of modern sociology – Emile
Durkheim – put it, the definition of a situation is real
in its consequence . What this simply means is that
one must never allow a perceived falsehood to
become one’s reality and by extension individuals
who accept a defined position act as though the
situation is real and apply themselves in that
narrowly defined perspective.
Why is this important to state it is because for long
the Yoruba have peddled lies that have almost
become accepted as the truth by other Nigerians but
it is important that we lay down the facts for others
to examine and come to their own conclusion for
facts are facts. Let’s go back to education. Historically,
Western education resulted as a product of
indigenous ethnic groups interacting with the whites
through trade. The dominant groups sold slaves,
ivory gold and a host of other products to their
European counterparts in exchange for finished
goods – wine, tobacco, mirrors, etc.
The Bini who were the dominant military force from
the 15th to the 19th century raided and sold other
ethnicities to the Europeans. Top on the list of those
they sold were the Yoruba, Ibo and Igala. Various
other ethnicities suffered as a result of the Bini
military expansion. And the Benin Kingdom stretched
from present-day Benin up to what is now
geographically referred to as Republic of Togo.
Indeed, the influence of the Benin Empire extended
to the banks of the river Niger to present-day
Onistha. There are huge Yoruba settlements in the
Anioma part of Delta State who fled Yoruba land as a
result of these attacks and constant raids. Yes, there
are Yoruba people who are currently living with Ibos
in the Ibo-speaking part of Delta and they are full
citizens of the place no one refers to them as
strangers and there is no talk about the Ibos being
the host community like we hear from the Governor
of Lagos State. But let me return to research. Slaves
were moved from the hinterland to the coast and
many were sold through Eko to the New World. These
slaves were the first to encounter the Europeans and
by extension their way of life – this included
education in a Western sense. The Bini King had
taken pains to establish a diplomatic presence in
Portugal and the relationship developed into areas
that extended beyond trade in the late 15th century
and lasted well into the early 19th century. Scores of
young Bpni youth were sent to Portugal and studied
there, coming back with advanced degrees in various
disciplines. The next set of people to receive Western
education were the slaves themselves. Some of them
managed to buy their freedom and develop
themselves further.
For the Ibo it does not matter who your father is; the
question is: Who are you? Who was Obasanjo’s father?
Was he the most educated Nigerian? I am sure the
answer is no. Yet this Great Nigeria led this nation
two times as a military Head of State and as a civilian
President. What about GEJ? Who was his own father?
Was he the first Nigerian to go to London? The
answer is no. In fact, he had no shoes, yet he is fully
in charge. So it does not matter if your father was the
first Lawyer or first Doctor in Nigeria but rather what
matters is what an individual does with the talents
the Almighty has given to him. Let us open up
Nigeria for competition. That is the solution to our
problems. Those who want privileges keep reminding
us that their fathers were the first to go to school in
London. Every generation produces its own leaders
and champions. Like Dangote who is the biggest
employer of labour in Nigeria today and the richest
man in Africa. Was his father the first to go to study
in London? Yet he is the master of people whose
parents gave them the best. My brothers, the answer
to the Nigerian problem is that we should establish a
merit-driven society. “I get am before” no be
property.

How can they have over 70% voter turnout when the national average is 35-45%. How can APC have less than 10%of of votes cast when the national average for best loosers is 30-48%.

I watched the damaging documentary that wa done on General Muhammadu Buhari’s regime and I was shocked that the current government would invest in falsehood and continuously lie to Nigerians.
I was dissapointed with most of the issues that were ‘x-rayed’ and how the current leadership clearly summarized that corruption is our only way forward, culture and attitude. To set the records straight I would like to clarify some issues in that video:
1. Fela’s mum died after Kalakuta republic was
attacked in 1978 by Obasanjo’s govt. GMB didn’t come into power until 1984
2. Why drag Buhari’s personal life into the show of shame. Even her two dead daughters were no respected because of a man’s desperation to win his second term. In Africa, no one speaks ill of the dead. Would the president be happy if he was accused of sacrificing his late sister for rituals purpose or sake of the 2015 election victory?
3. Fela never linked GMB to any $2.8 billion naira scandal but OBJ.
4. Shehu Shagari’s govt expelled illegal immigrants (Ghanians) from Nigeria not GMB’s regime.
5. To set the record straight, account of Gloria okon’s death in the documentary is faulty. Her death was connected to IBB and it was the investigation of that incident that led to the death of the veteran Journalist, Dele Giwa. Buhari had no hand in Gloria Okon’s death.
If Buhari would be condemned for jailing corrupt officials during his tenure, executing criminals in accordance with the law of the land at that time, then we must begin to have every coup plotter account for his sins.
Well, Nigerians have watched this piece on Buhari and awaits the video on how Nigerians are faring under the current leadership whose stewardship has destroyed our existence as a people;his poor leadership led to the loss of million lives in the North–east, grown our economy on papers while in reality, the reverse is the case, Chibok girls are gone with no hope of returning back to their parents, the DSS of our country reduced to a mere speculative
agency, and failure in almost all sectors of the
economy. Nigerians should beware of the president that empowers and award contracts of Territorial boundaries to ex – militants while the Military of his country is ill equipped to defend her citizens. We want results not false videos and blackmails.

So out of about 15 sentences she wrote, only "forth" was what she got wrong? That should never be a problem. What about if it was just an oversight on her part? That only mistake she made should show to any intelligent person that it was just an oversight she missed the "u" while writing her sentences.

When look closely, some of the idiots accusing her of not writing proper English made mistakes with what they wrote too.
