Nigeria does not need people like you because you are from the wrong tribe.That is why our primary and secondary pupils and even undergraduates/graduates are ignorant about you and your contributions to mankind.Our children are instead being fed with Mungo Park story. The future of Nigeria is in the hands of evil people who at the ages seventy and above of are still stealling and milking her dry.Our rulers talk but do not hear.They are deaf.Do not waste your time talking to them.Talk to people of South Africa instead. Your scientific contributions to mankind makes me happy.There is something spiritual about them and each time I visit your website l feel uplifted. l am happy for you and your family. May the blessigs be.

Keep up the good work but pls. remember from whence you camen and realise that what the Igbos and indeed Nigeria as a country requires now, are not just grandiose schemes that are not in tune with the realities of our everyday experiences but realistic participation in the growth orientated aspects of our life if only for the sake of the next generation. And I speak as an under 30yrs self employed Communication/computer engineering graduate of the federal universiy of Technology, Owerri. I believe there's a lot you can do to influence people out there to invest in the future of the youth in Nigeria and also to make them realise that we're not all like they percieve us to be.

Thanks for being a role model for many up and coming academics, especially from our part of the world. Indeed, there is nothing really racially genetic about intelligence, it is only access to opportunities and personal confidence. Keep up your good work, for the sake of mankind.

I am pleased that an African , a Nigerian and a NWAFO-IGBO for that matter is making waves out there. Keep it up brother. You are indeed a motivator. I am an upcoming writer[poet] striving for the voice of my hands to be heard.I'd love to send my works for perusal and possibly publication. Still living in this society where maginalisation is the order of the day for a crime THEY claim our FATHERS commited,my works are portrayals of the injustices, deprivation and outright oppression we face in this so-called free society. My question is 'What's the solution ? Though I never witnessed the Biafran war,I still witness the effect and aftermath. Please Dr Emeagwali I learnt that the war ended on a no victor , no vanquished note.Then why are we still treated as second class citizen ?

A genius who is not exposed to the right environment or misused will use his or her talent to destroy his or her environment. This has always been my fear.

No more Nigerian doctors. Keep writing about why Nigerians are leaving Nigeria. Please what can you do to help open that school again? Are you an alum of a Nigerian University schools are closing. What are you doing to keep your alma mater up. One day you will go back and it will no longer be there. What will you have to show your children?

I was working on some articles to cover the achievements of Africans in various fields all over the world and someone just mentioned your name to me. After doing my researches on your person and all your achievements I felt so proud to say this is someone from Nigeria who has shown to the world that,� the body can be enslaved but not the spirit� All Africans or people of African origin that use the computer and browse through the internet or whatever purpose they use computer should be very proud that one of their own has proved to be the FATHER OF INTERNET. It is now wide open to the world that it is only when people of all races are given equal opportunities that we see people manifesting their true talents, skills and gifts. I have written a very extensive article on you and gotten it published for millions of Nigerian youths to see and get motivated. It is also there for other youths of the world to follow and be motivated by. I�ll want to enjoin you to continue to do your good works to make life better for all citizens of the world through what you know how to do best. Don�t forget where you came from. The people of Igbo origin should feel your technological breakthrough positively. This is also to all other Nigerians in the Diaspora who are now very successful to always look back home to make Nigeria grow better and take it rightful place among the comity of nations. I have been greatly influenced by you r achievements and may God continue to in part in you more knowledge and insight to do more inventions. Like we say in my part of Nigeria (north) �Sannu� and your people (east) will say �Da�lu� and the Yoruba (west) will say �eku ishe�. Indeed you are a father of the Internet!
