80-Year-Old Nigerian Professor Returns Home After 48 Years in Canada with Nothing



A heart-wrenching story of Professor Amos Mabayomije Ishola Awodiya, an 80-year-old Nigerian academic, has gone viral after he shared his emotional life journey in an interview with cleric Agbala Gabriel.


Professor Awodiya, who spent 48 years in Canada, returned to Nigeria with no wife, children, or personal fortune. Despite his accomplishments as a specialist in heuristic education and author of several books, he has been left with nothing.


In the interview, Professor Awodiya reflected on his career, including his appointment as a minister in 1995 and his efforts to publish the Nigerian Encyclopedia, a handwritten 2,000-page book.
