[size=28pt]My grandma[/size], her husband died, left with children to take care of. Went to the farm day and night, paid for their education, saw them through higher institution i.e Pharm school, Nursing school, Med school, etc. Most of her children are in the US working. And she's in Nigeria enjoying the fruit of her labor.

From my family history, NOBODY can tell me that I can't become what I want. I'll def be holding my PhD degree in my hands a few years from now.

You know, I know , and we both know, you just made this up.

Anyway, getting a Ph.D in any field in the social-sciences isnt that a big deal, every one gets it nowadays, especially a black female like yourself who is a double minority. As a matter of fact, just apply and you dont have to show up for interview to be accepted into the program.

Olukoya is Yoruba BTW.

He is a thief like the rest of them.

A big capitalist who thrives on the fears of his congregation.

His sermons are always based on fictional stories of incredulous happenings in the supernatural. He makes his money by scaring the shyyt outta his congregation. I used to laugh my self to stupor when I see ediots in his congregation donating money to his made up causes. I dont know who I dislike more, him or Adeboye. Both are big time crooks!

BTW, very good public speaker by the way. Better than Adeboye, Oyahkilome, Joshua, Adefarasin combined.

I bet you don't know that he had first class in University, and is a brilliant man who chose to use his talents to serve God.
If he isn't a pastor today, he could as well be one of the leaders of Nigeria's top companies. I never praise empty barrels. This man is something in his own class.  cool
BTW I believe God has his own business.  cool

@topic,

I'm talking about Nigerians who, whenever I feel like regretting that I'm a Nigerian, and I remember them, I calm down again and smile.

In Biochem from Unilag and Ph.D from a shyyty University in the UK? I attended his sermons on numerous occasions for kicks at Onike. Very devious man.

and is a brilliant man who chose to use his talents to serve God.


Very good public speaker. Trust me, anyone bent on taking short cuts to success can do what he is doing. Especially in Nigeria when being able to speak passable English is equated to intelligence.

The guy is a thief and nothing but a freaking thief.


If he isn't a paster today, he could as well be one of the leaders of Nigeria's top companies. I never praise empty barrels. This man is something in his own class.  cool


Dont know about that!

lol. So first class in Biochem from Unilag (back when education was serious in Nigeria) is not a big deal? lol.
All I know is that he has inspired a lot of people and is a good Nigerian ambassador. He also makes his money from his books, not church money. He writes profusely. Like I said, he could have chosen to go into other sectors and would have thrived there too. How many Nigerian first class materials from back in the day are begging for food?
I won't call him a devious man. lol. You may not be a Christian, but please thread softly when you discuss folks working for God. We can agree to disagree gracefully. hehe!  cheesy
