LOVE IS PAIN! PLS STAY AWAY FROM IT!
Harvard is in their blood. Her grandchildren will go there too. Fantastic family tradition.
GODDAM!!!! See Legacy, sh*t d grandkids don enter One chance.... Smh
impressed will be the wrong word. That all her children graduated from Harvard is not an impressive feat per-say. This is because most private schools in America (especially Ivy-Leagues) consider your family affiliations and your ability to pay before they admit you. So if your grandparent(s) and your mother attended Harvard, and you can pay (do not need a scholarship), then you only ave to be decently smart to get it. Its a no-brainer. But if the two premises from the last sentence are false, then you have to be a genius and have wonderful favor from God to get in. So if you ask me, this is nothing impressive and should not necessarily be a source of inspiration.
- from a Nigerian student in the US.
LOVE IS PAIN!
I am stunned!!!!!!! Mennnnnnn!!!!!
Yea that's great
am nt Bragging...bt most of my Relations did nt go to School..bt believe me wen i say the are stinkly rich...ARE U INSPIRED.....bt education dey Very very important O.ask dame patience..@stanley

Bia Linda na laff dis 1 mak me, nd am sure it wil mak som1 cry so u no try atal!
No wonder her economic theories has not impacted positively on the NIGERIAN economy. I'm yet to locate Harvard on the Nigerian map!
Nice! It runs in d family. Hope their partners are also harvard graduates?
Yes. Very inspired. But na money dey talk o bcos to go harvard no be beans, na yam.
Na our contry money dem dey chop. Anyway, is gud 4dem.bt it is no big deal!
Hmmm... this got me thinking.
Lindiway if there's one thing abt you dat i like, it's your sense of humour. They are too much o, Harvard family. What happened to naija varsities nah? They are truly inspiring. Shior.
I am not inspired bc they studied in Harvard. Rather I'm inspired because the kids turned out well.I wish d family d very best.
Good For her make i maintain with the Uniport wey i go with my 2nd class lower Unique Uniport!!!!
Over impressed/aspired. *crying* I wishhhh. Its nt late fr me dou*consoling self*
A true born nigeria who wish the country well will not be bragging that she and her children graduated in foreign schools.That is why they never care if asuu strike indefinitely.
Na wa oo Linda. This one pass inspiring story. Na intimidation. Three generations of a family all Harvard graduates and no be moinmoin courses dem study. At least I manage go UNN where Lions and Lionesses are made. I go manage am like that.
Datz cool shaa i can c dey re all familiez of havard likwiz her future grand kidz to cum will xtill school dia any way i wish dem d best ooo az dey toping for ajiboo inxtitution dey do well na so me nd my family still excell for kpaz inxtitution dey progrexx az well lolz my own ix still inspiring ooo frm great grand fada we all schoold d same old baptixt high school in my state...
Blood of Jesus!!! See lineage of intellectuals. May all my kids graduate from Harvard. Amen.
Le Wild Harvard Pathfinder
Am not at all.....how have dey affected the Nigerian economy.... As far as am concerned, all na ceremony. Itz a good feat though but I no envy dem atall.... I pride myslf pass all of dem.... @least 4 dis harsh economy, man hustle, strive, suffer na understatement...we still manage get BSC ACA ACIT,ACCA.... Abeg, put story of Nigerians wey strive to achieve and not all des pple wey dey use Tax payers money chop life.... Anoda tory jare.... Linda u dey try!!!!
And?????
Lindiway u failed to add that ASUU is still on strike over here.
Who is fooling who?
No one can love you more than his or herself.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310
Ur reasoning is very shallow
Wow!!!that's 3rd generation harvard graduates, just like the Fani-kayodes, they have produced 4th generation Cambridge graduates..its good to keep tradition guess the schools will always offer them preferential admission to keep legacy...food wey sweet, na money kill am.
My father inlaw is a Harvard graduate and most of his children are not even graduates. This is inspiring, maybe my children will make our family proud by following their grandpa's step one day.
Yes, very inspiring indeed.
Another inspiring family is David Dafinone and his family of accounts, recognised by the Guiness World Records.
The Certificate reads.
''The World record for the most chartered accounts in one family is held by the three sons and two daughters of Senator David Omueya and Cythia Estella Dafinone of Lagos, Nigeria, who all qualified as members of the Institute of Chartered accounts in England and Wales between 1986 and 1999. Senator Dafinone became a member of the same institution in 1963''.
Brillant!
Nope. That by itself is not enough. There needs to be more to the story.
I am impressed but Linda remember she is a LEGACY so are her children. If you went to Harvard, your kids will have a greater chance to enter into any IVY league school of their choice. I currently got accepted to Harvard so that means my little brother will go to Harvard so will my kids. Going to Ivy League doesn't necessarily mean that you are smart. Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, owners of Google and Bill Gates never finished school but did you see how great they all turned out to be? They changed the word "TECHNOLOGY" forever. They are the 21st century, they made history and they will still be remembered forever. Oprah never went to any Ivy League school but did you see that she is the wealthiest black woman and most influential woman in the world. Now that is INSPIRING. These people you just mentioned were born with golden and silver spoon, they didn't have to conquer anything. INSPIRATION and SUCCESS according to Oprah is when you work for every dime you own or you have. You don't have to be a Harvard graduate to do that. What have all these people you just mentioned done for Nigeria or Africa aside from Mrs Iweala. I am not hating on Mrs. Iweala as a matter of fact I am a huge fan of hers but I am just asking you why you think they are great. Linda, you are an inspiration to young women out there, you are an independent woman who started from nothing and now you have a blog and you can feed your family and you are successful no matter how little it is. NOW YOU ARE WHAT I CALL INSPIRATION.
linda, its called legacy abeg, once your parents and siblings go to any university, u r likely to get in.
Eyah! You which sch did u grad frm?
Delsu?
Maybe even polytechnic
I feel your hurt :(
When you can afford it! Won't u give ur kids the best.
Or maybe you're the typle thatll spend all ur money on women nd cars nd neglect ur kids, good luck
Sorry but her children are ugly..lol
Wich kind yeye inspiration be dat one? E b like say dem pay you to post dis abi? Look @ deir big pomo lips lol anyway,dem try but hw is dat my bizness.wat has she done 4 naija?abeggii linda talk better tins jare no b people wey be say na oder people money dem dey chop.
ℓ☺ℓ!
Eeeyyaaa.. Linda say God! Thought they went to DELSU oo,tell me something. *rme*
Linda please am not inspired, its not like they all entered with a scholarship or something. Harvard university is too expensive and the screening is too much.
We all have to attend Harvard to understand her policies ....abi
So, how does this change the fact that the economy of Nigeria has been declining with a faster rate since this woman took office as the Finance Minister and Coordinating Minister for the Economy. Na only 9ja we go see person hold more than one high-ranked political office. Its either Harvard Economics is bad or this woman do la cram la pour when she dey school. Mtsheeeww.
Lmao!!!! As innnn....I first thought they were comic pics oh. Ahh God, my kids must be well educated. Amen
--Teeteelahyo--
U are such a sad person.
Her economic theories are ALL Western and in their interest. One medicine cannot CURE all ailments. And western institutions like the World Bank and IMF do not have the interest and progress of third world countries at heart. Their economic remedy is a KILLER.
It's only Africans that can find solutions to the myriads problems facing the continent.
O'boy, kilode??? Take ur broken heart somewhere else,grown ups r discussing impt issues
Lmao
riches in glory.im inspired
O'boy, kilode??? Take ur broken heart somewhere else,grown ups r discussing impt issues
U are such a sad person.
People admitted based on family connections, legacies, are quite common at prestigious and lesser known US higher ed institutions. The real feat is achieved by the people who get in on smarts alone.
Ewu!
WOW
Mtcheeeew,A̶̲̥̅̊♏ not inspired jor. This aint news. I go use their family educational background cook soup? Next pls....
Happy for them but has it added anything new to our economy in the real sense.
Rather they teach them how to steal public funds!. cos am sure they didn't use the money that was made abroad to train them. They used Naija Siphoned money.
Harvard is no beans to attend. Its all about your funds and since her grandparents(affiliation) also went there,so, its an automatic stuff for them and its a no brainer!
So now Linda how does ds affect d price of petrol in Nig?
~D great anonymous!
Anonymous know-all, your info is wrong wrobg wrong. You are just looking for excuses to make yourself feel good for being nowhere close to Harvard or an Ivy League school. Stop confusing people and suck up your envy.
Choi! I'm inspired n jealous at the same time. All my own family went to unilag, how's that for a headline
Wtf! This relates how?
Zik,Awolowo,Balewa etc didn't go to Harvard,yet they brought our independence. What has she brought?
Abeg! Can an average Nigerian pay the fees. Believe me we have more intelligent people down here just that they can not afford the best schools.
inspired???? wtf she trains her children abroad while her own countries education is in shambles.... she should be jailed.
one even studied american studies really...?!!!!!
mirror
No linda I am not. Good for them buthow has all this impacted on our nations economy. Apart from helping her wriggle out of internationally aired interviews NOTHING ELSE. She did well under Obj but I guess the curse of big nose farmer Jona has rubbed off on her.
Linda,I'm not inspired but just overwhelmed @ how much dey love Harvard! Dem swear for dem in dia family?? Abeg ooo no be insult but,just curiousity...lemme park well.
Inspired indeed! Asuu is still on strike
Not to sound like am hating on this family. G00d for them if they all went to Harvard but how have they improved the state of our economy?
How have Onyinye impacted our health system??
Its not about getting all the Certificate but what you do with it.
There are many inspiring story you could put up about ordinary Nigerian's making positive.
Congrats to the entire family for been able to afford their fee in Harvard, but sorry that is no way inspiring. I would rather go to Yale.
Na wah oooo u go fear d level of der exposure & education harvard con be der inheritance its gud 2 av money oooooo....God biko provide 4 us aswell so we sef go dey associated wit gud tins

Lmao,u sharply coined a word already.
Dis is overinspiring! Really, its breath-taking and eye-opening!
All na wash,this woman have been in two adminstrations now and still have not impressed,and I think she is over rated.
Good for them. But this their lips special ooo.lol.
Your a true NIGERIAN!
I am very very inspired!!! I have access to all that these kids had but just dont have the "brains" for school. I hate studying, hate reading and hate having to sit thru hours of class. Wish I had the drive to get a good education but I don't. All my siblings went to Havard and or BU as well. Im the black sheep alright
naijas are frigging hilarious! I know that fool didnt say "dem swear for them dia family?"... lol! swear for a person about choosing good schools again? naijas wont kill me

Really? That's their own archievment shaa.
What of her husband?
Hahahahahahahahaha......can't stop laffing.some peeps dey jealous for state sha*lmao*very inspiring in ma dreamzz
I have dreams to be an Harvard alumni some day...but I have been having sleepless nights on how and where to source fore fund. Now that Linda has inspired me, all I have to do is make the Iweala adopt me and that will be sorted.
Linda dear, please send me their home address so that I will go make them adopt me. Thank you in advance #big hug
congratulations to all
Hw can a man went to d university across nija to read social studies.

Now I know where our country's money is going to.
free me jare..lik ma bro terry G.
I am not INSPIRED one bit. I am a naija graduate, with a very good grade, they nor brillant pass me. Linda, abeg post 'Beauty Of The Day', a black lady with big breast will surely INSPIRE me.
Almost impossible for this to happen in present day Oxford or Cambridge, they don't keep legacies like the US Ivies do.
You Zaynab, I am very sure you never finished seecondary education. You are so shallow minded. I pity you.
Linda I guess u don't really understand what it means for one to inspire another, Otherwise, there is no way this their going to harvard is inspiring. They are blessed and fortunate to live by an existing legacy not that they worked hard or broke any record to be in harvard. Talk of inspirational person,lindoo, u are a true example.
@Zaynab; I seem to be very important to you, you are just a spasticated muttonhead! Your banter at me is quite lame though! I am so sure you have never being privileged to be honoured with a graduating certificate from a Polytechnic let alone a University that's why you are this pained and reek off with such puerile reasoning. Grow up child! Learn and read between the lines.
Loool I tire ooo!
inspired ko, outspired ni..story that touches the heart(akuko). lindi nawa oo..tell us how this affects the growing population in naija..ehn?
She use nija money take train her kids
Linda for hw long u need to approve my comment nahhhh
WOW!!
Lool..true talk the boys no try at all
Her sons look weird biko so bookisious!!!
How does wizkid news put food on your table .

Lol!! Very havardous and the glasses too runs in the blood!!
Jesus
Na Book be their food 4 dat family oh! Very inspiring !y
Harvard Royals from Nigeria. Impressive!
It's their choice if they all went to Harvard, it's no big deal. There are many good universities all over the world. The annual rating is done by the USA, so it not a surprise they always put Harvard and Yale on top. My university, University London College(UCL) London, currently rated 4th in the world is BETTER than Harvard, yes, QUOTE ME. Small wonder it's ''London's Global University''. Students ALL OVER THE WORLD INCLUDING THE USA FLOCK HERE FOR KNOWLEDGE.
Lmao!!!
Ah ah see this people, do they want to own the Harvard Library? Very inspiring indeed.
Pls God bless my daughters to go to Harvard!Amen
Her grand kids should then go to Yale. S so Harvard.
Wow!How inspiring. In other news, ASUU IS ON STRIKE! Nigerian leaders wake up! We need our own Harvard here in naija.
So which uni did the father of the kids graduate from?
But come to think of It, not every rich kids are inspired in schooling so I gv kudos to them...sometimes I see our elderly ppl that went to school as ppl that carried firewood because they all deny financial assistance from there parents, naso d life b then...so madam Harvard kip harvarding while the streets are hungry
Harvard cannot open d gates of Heaven
I'm sure your husband is also a drop out. God will break d yoke on ur own children o.
Guniness book of record things....
damn. where all those ignorant illiterate beggars from certain parts of the country that can only criticize. if na beans make dem try duplicate am na. never evr ever. props to this family. harvard no b beans.
Bet they have a rule in their family, no Harvard no school and started grooming them early. Nice strategy. I go try am for my pikin
No we are not in anyway inspired!wats inspiring bout going 2 d best schools bcus u have parents who can afford 2 send there?d inspiration wld be those who got in without any help,legacy or affiliations whatsoever.besides for all their education,wat impact av dey made?d onli pple dat inspire me are those who wake up daily 2 work n struggle 2 better demselves not pple who av money handed 2 dem.bill gates dropped outta school and 2day he's helped change d world and he's d richest man in d world,now dats an INSPIRATION!
Ok, so they are genetically wired to Havard. We hope their children won't come out with heads shaped like a graduating cap. Now that would really be something!
Linda na so Harvard people dey luk like? I wonder how many gurl way go deyy rush to kiss that kpomo lips cuzz dem heear Harvard, if u like no post ma tweet
That family rocks! God really blessed them with a powerful IQ.I pray for such great intelligence for my unborn children.
ok, my dad went to Unilag & so did four of his sons (most of them on scholarship). Are you inspired?
Its a Harvard affair! Issokay
inspired to do what pls????? are u jokers???? coz dey all went to harvard??? good for dem, but why should i be inspired?? inspired to go to harvard??? lmao... not when i av a good B.A and MBA from one of d best unis in Nigeria... OAU
loooooooooooooool @ 'are you inspired'. Nice one! I think the Iwealas should be given a share in Havard then.
WHAT???!
LOL! it will b more inspiring if they were all on scholarship i think.. good for them sha
YCFOnline.com
Hahahahahaaa,....♍Ɣ guy i'm inspired..
You forgot
even their house help n gate man, went to Harvard too.
their pets are trained by Harvard trained VETERINARY , which automatically makes them products of Harvard too.
U NEVER SEE ANYTHING
YET ALL SHE SAYS ALL THE TIME IS THAT THE IS NO MONEY IN NIGERIA, NIGERIA IS BROKE, GETTING BROKE
Lol @ are you inspired now? Linda you're clown.
Im inspired to steal money so my kids can go to Harvard
Their nose dey Harvardly BIG o!!!
.........Y wudnt they b.........dats y our eductional system is laid to waste cz their own kids a'int skulin in ƌ̲̣̣̣̥ country...........
Havard graduates family members have auto admission Linda.Dont show the world that you aint informed.i think your orientation is showing off.Her parents admission in Havard gave her,hers have her kids and it will continue.thats why some rich guys try to at least go to Havard Business Schoolto make way for their kids.Get this Linda so that you dont always appear uninformed.
You don't even trust in your own system
I pity our generation in this country,I feel sad! So cos they grauated from harvard they are now an inspiration to you all,like seriously??? Ok let's put it this way what if it was unilag or OAU etc wuld it still be an inspiring story? So those that graduated frm naija skools wat do we call them? These are the same pple that comes with their degree and our graduates are shoved behind..my dears, good for them they went to harvard! But let us appreciate our own and work on our own academic system.so people let's not exagerate here abeeeeeeg!
Anonymous July 16, 2013 at 9:16 PM You said it all. This will be a feat and inspiring only when, against all odds, they got admitted in to Harvard based on their brilliance via scholarship. Not when you have to money to pay tuition and someone to put in a word for you. Linda be wise you seem to be carried away with this naija unnecessary hero worship.
Lol
Inspired? I'm jealous...and beefing too! Na only them sabi book? (long hiss). Impressive anyway. more feathers to their caps
No wonder the fool " mother" just assume rubbish for us here in Nigeria,she spent most of her life outside Nigeria.. They kw don't what we are passing through in Nigeria system of education. Government needs to start appoint those people that leave and study in Nigeria.. We don't need fools that knows nothing abt d real Nigeria system
Let harvard open there branch here and they should let the family be in charge. But mind you that dosnt make them better than the students here
This is lovely how I wish Nigeria will be better 2morrow so 4yrs course will be 4 not 7 or 8 wit d strike I weep for my dear country I rest my case.
The fact that you ride bicycle to the farm, does not mean your yam will come out better. Everything in life is by his grace. Quite interesting CV for the family, but at whose expense? I am not hating. Wishing me and other readers a greater height.
From ur lil speech, I can tell Harvad certainly dint make a mistake by admittn u... Ur speech is mre inspiring dan dat of d previous story of Mrs Iweala.. Wish u all the best in ur studies
~its all bau me~
All of you complaining that how has the daughther improved the healthcare of Nigeria.Pls when did it become their responsibility to improve Nigeria?You graduates of Nigerian universities how have you impacted on your country? and for those saying its government money she used to send her kids to schoool check the dates and see if it happened during her tenure in Nigeria.Stop hating on others if you want to progress in life.
Harvard my foot wole soyinka go Harvard fela go Harvard gani go Harvard yet they are first class brains abeg forget Harvard joor d banj go Harvard donjazzy go Harvard p square go Harvard make i hear word see dem with their glasses abi na havard dem give dem dat bottles to wear
Very well written.obviously one of the very few intelligent contributors on this blog.
Kini big deal.Shud we start dancing azonto. They didnt attend havard becos they are so brilliant, once u have money any hegoat can go there. How has she transformed d lives of nigerians with her Harvard degree. She and Jonathan seems to be part of the problems of Nigeria currently. They can all go and hug transformer.
okay,me and my family,generation graduated from university of ibadan,is that news to you?NEXT PLS!!!
Ngozi okonji iweala and her uglyyyy beasts
Abeg wld dis make Asuu strike to end
Good radiance
Haha! Love your response PC! I thought the comment was uncalled for. Hopefully she won't try to coin a ridiculous comeback hehe #JayBeyBlu
I don't think Zaynab is as dumb as you portrayed her, she asked a valid question instigated by your comment. U asked how the story impacts your live but u never ask same on a story about Rihannas body and all other trivial things. It shows a condescending attitude towards knowledge and intelligence and thats a big problem in Nigeria - The value system is so bad that people celebrate trivialities and condemn substance. It's not easy studying in Harvard even if u have money to pay. They must have worked hard to be there.
Howard Gardner, aa accomplished educator at Harvard University in his famous book on intelligence theory titled, "Frame of Mind:The Eight Multiple Intelligences" was able to prove that intelligence is not about passing or failing an examination but all about how a person is able to influence his or her society so attending Harvard is not a big deal. It is a big deal if the graduate can use the Harvard degree to change his or her society to be a better place.This is an educational contribution from a US-based Nigerian educator.
Yes..Very Inspired
shooo ths 1 pass me ooo, why r dey looking lips lips like ths???...... sis Linda! is ds d best pix u can get of them, abi u self dey find talks???
a lot of haters on this page. Appreciate the grace of God and it will come your way. I did not go to Havard, but my wish is that my kids will.
People just hate.
Hahahahaha.....loool
and the economic problems of Nigeria has still not been solved. Harvard is obviously not working.
Inspiration Ȋ̝̊̅§ wen a child with no parents sponsored him/herself out of university....I'm impressed bt nt inspired...BTW...we've got intelligent people down here without Harvard Cert....that's a family achievement nt ̶̷̩̥̊͡ǎ̜̣̍t d whole country should be reeling over
Linda an inspirational story goes when one succeeds beyond crazy odds! this is more of a legacy and not an inspiration. If her kids didn't go to Harvard then what's the essence of being the second in command of FRN?????? its not inspiration at all. My father finished from uni of Glasgow and we all have attended school in the UK...how inspirational is that?
inspired? NO!
children are at home bcus of strike, & how can a naija man afford it on his salary btw?
am thinking right how we r going 2 survive this month.
God dey! #shrugs#
As a true Igbo son, I don't give a hoot. My 10 containers are coming in from China next month. They can eat their certificates. How that one take concern me?
With all the certificates, she is still under an illiterate, alcoholic President. Havard grad. vs. Otuoke grad? LOL
Dat one na psychology lecturer or something,busy having affairs with his students
@Anon 10:57 a man can "went" to university across "nija" to read social studies so he won't have 2 write or speak English like you. #disgraceful# Go back to school child! Meg.
From the dates you posted, they all went to Havard after she had been made a minister. They did not go on scholarship. ASUU is still on strike. Go ahead, inspire me.
In as much Harvard is a great school and we all wish same but honestly this is not inspiring coming from one of our leaders. Tomorrow u hear same for jonathans kids and a whole bunch of them nd u call that inspiring. Dangotez family can do Harvard and I will say oh yes he earned it! Not in a bad way all am saying is; why go all d way abroad when we have schools in naija? Yea,cos its for the poor masses right? Why travel all d way to India and uk to get medical checkups when we have plenty hospitals here that u have refused to equip! And nwa ogbenye goes to those places and die accidentally cos of lack of proper diagnosis. I was present at an event that Coscharis did a talk many years ago, and he said stg very inspiring" he made sure all his children studied in naija" not bcos he didn't have money to take them out but to discipline them and make them understand what life is about. Because she is one of our leaders and they aren't doing any good to our country in terms of schools n hospitals, well am not inspired.. my take!
Let it be a crime to me If I don't give my kids a better life and education than what I got from my parents, though my parents tried so well from the little they had...so help me God, amen.
I see nothing, absolutely nothing inspiring about their Harvard story. For their pocket!!!
