Don't mind them; they think they are on the same level with the Igbos. They hide under one Nigeria to compete with the Igbos. If they are man enough, they should agree to separation...then they will know the true greatness of the Igbos. It's no longer a question of IF but WHEN.
What do u gain by tribalising germaine issues of utmost important to the development of nigeria. Every tribe in the country produces briliant individuals who have gone ahead to make the country proud in their fields of endeavors. Just as there are igbo sholars and inventors outside the shores of nigeria, there are those from other tribes too. For all i care,what the american society see is an african who has a potential to be great, what you see is an igbo man. Tribalism breeds hatred, nepotism, corruption among the african race.

Great news. I believe in Nigeria but not the leaders sharing N9B for clothes

I just wish all nairalanders in Naija can do a trek to the National House of Assembly in Abuja. A trek to a groping ship that is about to be sunk by extravagance of the "political appointees." A trek against nine point something billion naira fashion allowance; this will be the real trek. Fighting mode.

Keep deceiving yourself.
I am telling you what i know from experience, you are spewing crap.
If the chinua achebe the role model of most igbos in the diaspora dislikes Nigeria in its entirety, then there is nothing you can do to convince others not to.
Btw, most of the IPOB agitators are based abroad.
You can bet that many of them are dinstinguished scholars.

Very impressive! Now all we know how to manufacture in this failed element called Nigeria is greedy, useless and heartless politicians. Had it been this man studied in Nigeria, all this bright future would have been killed and buried even before he kick started any of them.

Maybe I would have invented a smart material capable of reading minds of people and computing it into phones, laptops, ATM machines, etc, so that we don't have to waste our energy typing all day but hey, I schooled in Ahmadu Bello University where we obtain only theoretical knowledge. A school where a useless physics lecturer will insult Engineering students just because he applied for engineering and was thrown to physics department. A school where we would reach close to, if not more than a thousand students in a class with several people standing and others sitting on the floor with the remaining outside the classroom (100 and 200 level). There are just a lot wrong with our educational system.

Kudos to you Mr. Keep on making this dead country proud since the only thing they ascribe to us is fraud and crime.

I wonder where all these tribalist put their brains...we've got to look beyond being tribalistic on some issues. If we are celebrating some Nigerians making feat outside the country and failing to celebrate them achieving such in Nigeria then we have a long way to go. This man and some other Nigerians were sent out of the country on scholarship by the government to come back and impact the knowledge gained but many of them stayed outside the country developing those countries with their knowledge. Imagine the spate of development that would have been achieved if these men came back. And we have some people like Dr Abalaka whose project have not being encouraged by the government.

The Prototype or/and The Totem of everything and all things was first of all created, then made and/or invented by the Black people.
I saw a list of Black inventors, and the question that went through my mind was "what then did all these white people REALLY invented at we worship them so?".

After reading the comments above, I concluded that igbos have serious inferiority complex.other tribes in Nigeria sees any successful Nigerian as a NIGERIAN..., not hausa, yoruba, fulani, edo etc.

You are very right. But i don't know if it is common with the Igbo race or just the myopic Igbos on Nairaland. Very funny set of people!!!
