A 300-level medical student of Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti, Ernest Chukwuma, has bagged an honorary Doctor of Science Degree and a Fellowship of the International Agency for Standards and Ratings.
A statement by the ABUAD Head of Corporate Affairs, Mr Tunde Olofintila, in Ado Ekiti on Sunday stated, “Chukwuma’s feats are the products of his winning the 2019 Global Championship Award in Science through his research article entitled ‘Theory of Photon Quantra’”.
Olofintila stated that the research emerged the best among 5,547 nominations and 87 screened for the 2019 World Championship in Science and was published in the Global Journal of Science Frontier Research: A Physics and Space Science Journal.
He said, “Chukwuma’s milestone achievement at a tender age has been fired by his great admiration for Albert Einstein, the great German physicist of all times, who developed the Theory of Relativity, who he has been trying to emulate.
According to him, Chukwuma had said, “I had watched a movie about Albert Einstein, the great German physicist, who invented the Einstein Refrigerator. How he wanted his voice to be heard in his chosen field and how his voice was eventually heard.
“I, too, I want my voice to be heard. With these awards, my voice is being heard, but this is just the beginning. I believe that by the grace of God and of course more hard work, many awards are still on the way,” the ABUAD medical student was quoted to have said.
Chukwuma had thanked the ABUAD founder, Chief Afe Babalola, for establishing the university and setting up Club of Geniuses, which he said “is for highly brilliant students where they are given the latitude to express themselves”.
The annual World Championship in Science Award is organized by the International Agency for Standards and Ratings for the best thesis and dissertation award, doctoral research award and milestone international research articles among brilliant scientists and academics around the world.
