A Nigeria Postal Stamp Celebrating three amazing world class brilliant minds. One of the many few this country has produced.

Emeagwali Philip : Philip Emeagwali is a Nigerian computer scientist. Emeagwali was born in Akure, Nigeria on 23 August 1954. His early schooling was suspended in 1967 as a result of the Nigerian Civil War. At 13 years, he served in the Biafran army. After the war he completed high-school equivalence through self-study. He won the 1989 Gordon Bell Prize ($1,000) for price-performance in high-performance computing applications, in an oil reservoir modeling calculation using a novel mathematical formulation and implementation.

Prof Ayodele Awojobi : (12 March 1937 – 23 September 1984), also known by the nicknames "Dead Easy", "The Akoka Giant", and "Macbeth", was a Nigerian academic, author, inventor, social crusader and activist. He was considered a scholarly genius by his teachers and peers alike. He quickly advanced in his field to become the youngest professor in mechanical engineering at the University of Lagos, Nigeria in 1974. Earlier the same year, he became the first African to be awarded the degree of Doctor of Science (DSc) in mechanical engineering at the then Imperial College of Science and Technology, London (now Imperial College London)– a degree only exceptionally and rarely awarded to a scholar under the age of 40. While as a lecturer in the University of Lagos, Awojobi successfully converted his own family car, an Opel Olympia Rekord, from right-hand drive to a left-hand drive.

Prof Oyibo Gabriel: A Professor of mathematical physics at the University of Bridgeport, Connecticut, Oyibo became an international figure during his 2002 and 2003 nominations for the world Nobel Prize for Math and Physics, after his newly discovered theories in physics were found to have outranked the 1983 winner, Chandrasekhar and equaled the 1979 winner, Abdu Salam. Oyibo, who got his third nomination in 2004 for the Nobel Prize in Physics discovered the God Almighty's Grand Unified Theorem (GAGUT), studied atomic particles also known as power elements, and reduced 118 elements to just one.

This is a departure from the long-held belief in Albert Einstein whose 118-element base science dominated the world for nearly a century.
