Success stories like that of 17-year-old Harold Ekeh makes us proud of Nigerians living in the diaspora, because it provides a powerful reminder that the dream of attaining educational and career excellence sought by many who immigrate to the United States is definitely achievable.

The Elmont high school senior, Harold Ekeh, recently got accepted to all eight Ivy League universities and the 17-year-old from Long Island, New York, would be having a tough choice to make in selecting which school to end up with. He actually got admission into all 13 schools he applied to, including MIT and Johns Hopkins.

    “I am very humbled by this. I see this as not an accomplishment for me, but as an accomplishment for my school, my community,” Ekeh told the local CBS affiliate. “I really see this as my mission to inspire the next generation.”

Ekeh’s aspiration is to be a neurosurgeon, according to local news reports, and he is reportedly leaning toward Yale University.

    “I am leaning toward Yale,” he told CNNMoney. “I competed at Yale for Model UN, and I like the passion people at Yale had.”

His parents moved from Nigeria to the United States with his family eight years ago and his mom works for a human resources agency, while his dad works for the New York City Police Department.

According to media reports, Ekeh credits his success in gaining admittance to all eight Ivy League schools and several other universities to his parents for moving from Nigeria to the United States when he was 8 years old, and his teachers for challenging him.

President Jonathan today while receiving residents of the Federal Capital Territory who were led by Vice President Namadi Sambo to pay him Easter homage at the Presidential Villa looked back at his years of service from being the deputy governor of Bayelsa, to when he became the country’s President and said he thinks he has had enough and he has no doubt that he is the luckiest Nigerian. He also thanked Nigerians for the opportunity they gave him to serve. His words;


“For me as an individual, this Easter coincides with the time I am leaving but I always say that I am one of the luckiest Nigerians. I am yet to see somebody luckier than me.


“From 1999, I was in the hands of government for 16 years. Not just in government as a parliamentarian because if you are a Senator or House of Representatives member, you take care of yourself, you live in your own house. Continue...



“I was in a cage, being taken care of by the government. From May 29, 1999 to date; 16 good years. I think it is enough and I am happy, help me to thank God for that.


“I will continue to thank Nigerians for giving me that privilege. I became a deputy governor because Bayelsans voted for me and my governor then. I became a Vice President because Nigerians voted for Yar’Adua and myself.



“I continued in 2011 because Nigerians voted for me and Architect Namadi Sambo. I have to thank all Nigerians. Wherever I will be, I will remain grateful to this great country. Today is a glorious day for me,” he said.
