My view not urs!!!!
Outside we go win awards as d best. Bring ds guy home to showcase what he studied, the lawless system here will make him lazy. He will start enriching himself with tax payers money and will not do any tangible work.
You are a fool. Because she gave out money last year. Now lazy ppl like u are looking for recog. Go get busy, dumbhead

I am so proud of him. I call him my twin brother. I look up to him very much. He is a great mentor.
congrats to him, - Matexwrite.com
When Nigerians who make the country proud are mentioned, we know where they come from. If Nigeria does not give chance to her best achievers, she will continue to crawl, groan and follow-follow like this!
Which one concern Buhari and science. Buhari has NEVER made any single comment or allusion to science since the last 30 years that I know him.
To him science does not matter. Only islam matters
Wow! Now this is the kind of news that lifts my spirit off the ground of worries for the day. When someone's strenuous efforts are finally recognized and awarded meritoriously.
Congrats....
