So a Nigerian can't be the best graduating student in a foreign school. I don't get.

It's because he's a Northerner, they've wrongly assumed they don't know book, meanwhile those are the people ruling the country (albeit in the opposite direction).

Beautiful

Nah, he's just being a tribalist.

Great!!!

Congrats for repping us well

First time seeing an open gutter in an European country. Throughout my stay in Europe, I never saw any Naija-style open gutter. From the university pictures shown, I could see one , though very neat unlike the Naija type with all sorts of dirty water and plastics.

Congratulations lad, at your age I was preoccupied by trying to get laid. Respect

Very annoying and he'd might then be fighting against racism

Watch how his other classmates will later go on in life to make inventions that'll advance mankind while "Mr. First Class" will come back to the country and not make any meaningful contribution to mankind despite his lofty academic qualifications.

dyera:
This means the other students must be very dull

So what you trying to say?

Very commendable
Congrats to him

Congrats to him, meanwhile I was the best graduating student in my department, since 2013,yet I have not received my #20,000 till now.
How I wish I have the opportunity to study abroad , my name would have been published like this lad.

It's the African (Nigerian specifically) hypocrisy.
We hate racism, but we instigate tribalism back home. Which are basically the same thing at different scales.

Highly commendable!
