Usman Umar Dagona is Nigeria’s ‘best’ chemistry student. He had emerged first position in the 2019/2020 Imagine National Chemistry competition, beating over 1,749 graduates from the University of Lagos, Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) and other top Nigerian universities.

The win earned Dagona the opportunity to represent Nigeria at the 2020/2021 Imagine Chemistry International Akzo Competition, where he won N152 million ($400,000) after emerging second.

Prior to winning the award, Dagona had shared photos of himself on Facebook, burning “all” his text books that were written by French authors.

The indigene of Gashua in Bade Local Government Area, Yobe State, appeared to have burnt the text books to protest remarks allegedly made against Islam by French President, Emmanuel Macron.

Aside messages saying the world can do without French Chemistry scholars, he shared pictures showed himself burning his Chemistry text books on October 30, 2020.

Dagona wrote, “We Can Live Without France…Earlier Today, I have burnt my books for (sic) some famous French Chemistry Scholars” adding, “Allahumma A’Izzal Islam Wal Muslimun.”
