From Almajiri to Professor of Political Science – The Untold Story of Umara Ibrahim Gudumbali
Prof. Umara Ibrahim Gudumbali is a professor of political science & International Relations in the University of Maiduguri. An Almajiri that fully memorized 60 hizb of Holy Qur’an, and later joined western education in the late 80s.
He’s the most brilliant lecturer in the University of Maiduguri so far. Even as a lecturer in political science, he can perfectly teach in Pharmacy, Engineering, History, Law, Sociology, Islamic studies, Christian Religious knowledge and several other disciplines.
When Prof. Umara Is delivering a lecturer, you would see students from different departments coming to attend his lecture, (sometimes the number those that are not his students surpass those that are his students).
For several years, Prof. Umara always come to class with freehand to deliver lecture by harnessing directly from his brain. Prof. Umara can teach about 60 courses (both within and outside his discipline of political science) without using anything written or typed.
Anytime you attend his lecture, you would hear a new English word that you never heard in your life, and when you check your dictionary, you would find out the word is there.
Seeing him on a vehicle loaded with onions clearly tells us he doesn’t look down at natural endowments and his cultural heritage.
He once served as H.O.D of Political science department, and a visiting lecturer in Nigerian Defence Academy, NDA Kaduna, Nsukka,FUGA, YSU and other Universities.
He’s naturally brainy .
