Wow! We Nigerians should be very proud of a Nigerian like legend Ngozi. Not counting where or the religion the person comes from. Note that the world didn't look out for religion but the value and potential a person carries to achieve goals. Thank you ma'am for this powerful speech linking science and tech. To climate change, agricultural science, world policy making and human capacity building all in one presentation. Ma'am I am so proud to called a Nigerian cus of many likes of you.
To think that this legend of a woman is a Nigerian where every 4yrs they chose nonentities to lead them is so painful.
It is unimaginably painful. Nigeria is a country where the idiots lead the genius and of course leading them back to ignorance and darkness. So painful my friend.
Nigeria political system is what can be termed Kakistocracy - a government run by the most irresponsible, or worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens.
People keep deluding themselves about Nigeria. So sorry, but Nigeria is not meant to be a real "country", it is nothing but a medium for Europe, America and Saudi Arabia to be controlling and exploiting Africa. The only way out, is for people who believe in Nigeria to insist on a real constitution that guarantees autonomy to the regions the way they were, East, West and North.
Or a Referedum for total break-up.
Tribalism is the course . People vote their tribes
@@immaculate2197 You've said the bitter truth, the cause of Nigeria's woos is generally attributable to religion and above all tinge of tribalism
This is electioneering period, and you see and hear people supporting their preferred candidates for ethnic and religious lines, the two most prominent amongst the presidential candidates have been indicted by an American tabloid Bloomberg, for corruption ranging from drug trafficking and money laundering respectively
But inspite of those heinous accusations people are still routing and supporting them,bc of tribal, ethnic and religious lines, they don't care,for them let the sufferings and looting of our common wealth continue adinfinitum
Madam Ngozi I am proud to be a Nigérian because of people like you.
Thank you ma'am
What a beautiful speech dear DG world-bank Madame Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. You were lucky to scale through as an indigent international student during your time. However, foreign education has changed,not favouring us-international students no more. Despite being the most brilliant in our classes evident with excellent grades, schools are not supporting majority of us again, we pay exorbitant fees(almost thrice fees paid by local students) through our nose, yet some dropped out due to inability to pay school fees. It shouldn't be a sin on us striving to get quality of education outside our country, why are we been punished for wanting to use our brain to develop the world by acquiring quality education. DG ma,please we seek your indulgence to appeal to foreign schools(especially US,UK and Germany) to look at ways to assist international students that are doing well academically and extra-curricular activities in ensuring money did in any way make them stop their academic pursuit.
We hope you can do this for us!
Thank you
Kind regards,
Olutayo Oseni

This is one of the most brilliant graduation speech I've listened to
Listening to Dr. Okonjo Iweala is always awe-inspiring. Nigeria is proud of you! Goodluck to the MIT Class of 2022!
ODOGWU NWANYI, l am honestly proud of you and thank the Lord for everything. I thank your PARENTS wherever they are and bless God for your brain. EZENWANYI MAY THE HANDS OF THE LORD NEVER LEAVE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN JESUS NAME AMEN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH MA.
I mean...a very powerful speech!.. Making what is impossible, possible. Linking science, invention and innovation together with public policy-making... the nexus and connecting the dots. NOI, you're a truly outstanding woman! Living and surviving in uncertain times demand extraordinary says of doing things, indeed. Education is a privilege, and must be utilized to the fullest.
Madam Dr. Ngozi Okonji IWEALA and Chimamanda Adiche stories must be told to my Future Daughters, Women that break boundaries 🙌🏼😍
This is one of the best Graduation Speeches I've ever listened to. Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is a superstar, an intellectual phenomenon, and above all, a bunch of inspiration. I love you, Mom !
Obvious to see her path to brilliance and world excellence started so long ago.. Nothing beats quality education. Well done Ma'am for a brilliant speech. You really inspire us as Nigerians 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I feel so envious, my God i feel like going back to school. This lady is amazing
Learning never end..
The day you stop learning you start dying.
Please, try and go back
Wow, it feels great listening to this great woman. I feel proud to be a Nigerian. And good luck to the MIT class of 2022.
Yes ooo
"Search for the opportunities hidden in challenges"
Characteristic of an entrepreneur.
Dr Ngozi is a blessing to the World. I'm highly motivated by speech
An astute, perceptive, creative, highly intelligent and humble world leader - you are a great motivator and mentor to us women globally. Thank you very much for impacting the world so positively. GOD bless you, Ma.
Wonderful. So wonderful, academic legend and great mother.
Great speech, flawlessly delivered.
We are proud of you ma’am 👏 👍
Awesome speech. I would love to come to MIT soon
Dr. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, you are a shining light in the world and a great world ambassador from Nigeria. Your speech here is so informative and inspiring. Thank you for all you do.
SOOOO INCREADIBLE SPEECH I CANT BELIEVE THIS SHE HAS ENCOURAGED ME TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL
Africa sunshine...epitome of brainbox...I salute u ma....
🥺 you're amazing ma'am!
I look forward to meeting you this year. I don't know how though.
To think that NOI didn't take a look at the pamphlet is so surprising... She's just a legendary genius... God bless you Ma, best of luck to the MIT 2022 class, you've all done what Napoleon couldn't do.
Education is a privilege and with that privilege comes with great responsibility.
Great Igbo woman, you're representing Igbo Nation very well and we are proud of you.
By this time next year,we are going to have another great Igbo man as president of Nigeria in the person of Dr Peter obi, that's when we will prove to Nigerians that they ve been delaying their greatness by not allowing Igbo person to rule all these while.
The speech is so insightful, this are the kind of people the world need, I wish all MIT graduate the best, #see you all at the top#.
My role model...I love you mother. We are coming, just right behind you.
what a road map for the 2022 graduates from this great , caliber of a woman.
we are very proud of you Ngozi.
Graduates, go out there,take risks and SERVE.
Congratulations graduates.
I really paid attention throughout her speech. Everything from her brain. This is wonderful. I wish I went to school where lecturers are rich. Poverty has really done more harm than good in this country.
She was reading from PE screen... She didn't speak from brain
I've seen alot (well some) commencement speeches from different people and I must say that I find her absolutely brilliant. She didn't come here to baby them or give overly emotional speeches that will move them only for the moment. She hit the nail on the head, she tells them of the responsibilities that await and the opportunities available to them to better themselves and others . She's truly a phenomenal woman. I am so proud of her and all that she is.
THESE ARE THE KIND OF BRAINS WE HAVE IN NIGERIA.....LET US THEREFORE VOTE 'GOOD' LEADERSHIP UNDER WHICH THESE KIND OF BRAINS CAN THRIVE!!!!!!!
How did we get so low in Nigeria.???? We have talents
You spoke well ma. Making the world a better place is the goal. Congratulation!
A great leader Nigeria must have.😊🤗
Fulanis won't let her flourish. It is Biafra that deserves her.
Nigeria cannot have her. Nigeria is a Talent Killer
Nice .... Thanks and GOD Bless your wisdom Ma.
Truly inspirational woman! Great speech.
Hearty Congratulations to the MIT Class of 2022.
I have never been prouder of any Nigerian than I am of Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. I just can't understand why someone like this cannot be given the opportunity to lead this country. Hopefully, this will still happen sooner than later. May God bless her and all her endeavours.
Patriarchy, misogyny and ethnicity are the reasons why.
Please can Nigeria and nigerians allow a woman like this be the President of this great country. God bless us.
She is intelligent and sound
What a knowledge Bank. A legendary and a mother. God Richly you. Live Long with good health to enjoy the fruits of your Labour.
Congratulations to the up coming graduates of MIT Class 2022.
Thanks a zillion times. Bless You.
Blessed You're. Thank you @Mama Africa for giving such inspiration.. i.e writing dissertation with 9 month pregnancy; how amazing.
Congratulations for 2022 Class.
A Great woman. Proud of Nigeria, Proud of Africa, Proud of the World. Dr. Ngozi Okonjo I.
This is more than a speech. Its a JOURNEY.
I am so glad to call myself NIGERIAN because of people of like you mrs.ngozi.
This mama is so versed. Nigerians are blessed with talents but cursed with leadership and followership.
Great speech! NOI never disappoints Nigeria.
Great woman - great and inspiring speech!
I hear you. In Nigeria we put square pegs in round hole. The world is waiting for the giant to wake up. Thanks Madam Ngozi for making us proud
Love your statement.
When u are big, u are big. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
She's not even checking her note, wish I had schooled were lecturers were this good.
Thank you for making me proud of you as an elder Sister
Such a beautiful summary of everything!This is why i havent had closure on what happened to Nigeria during her time in the country. Why was the promise unfulfilled. Why are we still here in 2022.
Ask the evil people in charge. They don’t want anyone who is coming in to fix things. They want to keep stealing the money and not be held accountable.
Thought provoking indeed
Powerful speech by a powerful Woman. You made us proud all the time Ma.
Lol
After you people will go and vote Buhari even when there's an okonja
Waoooo, excellent ma'am.
By God grace my I'm going to meet this amazing good woman and I will like to do my master this year at MIT.
Amen
What a country NIGERIA where this fantastic and brilliant woman came from. Tell me whereby this woman is chosen to be a president of Nigeria to stop these looters from smelling Aso Rock.
The unfortunate thing is that, she not a politician. I wish we could have her as a president
THE ATMOSPHERE IS REALY NICE
wow, so inspiring, what an intellect!
I feel like licking your words like ice cream!
I respect you ma'am
