35th-greatest African & Africa Greatest Scientist Of All Time, Is He Really Dat? by doublekay: 3:34pm On Nov 23, 2010
Was voted the "35th-greatest African (and greatest African scientist) of all time" in a survey by New African magazine. His achievements were quoted in a speech by Bill Clinton as an example of what Nigerians could achieve when given the opportunity. He is also a frequent feature of Black History Month articles in the popular press.

That not withstanding he was qualified as being a fraud star (1), and was also considered lazy by the law suit of the Michigan Court of Appeals.

The question now is, 'is he really what he is said to be considering great african scholars like Noble prize winner prof Wole soyinka and Chinua Achebe'.

Talking of no other person but Philip Chukwurah Emeagwali renowned supercomputing pioneer a native of Onitsha, Anambra State, Nigeria.
