In this episode Africa React (Historical Africa) we will be reacting to 8-Year-Old Nigerian Refugee Who Defeated U.S Kid's to Become Chess Champion.
Meet Tanitoluwa Adewunmi, a young chess prodigy whose talent and resilience have captured the hearts of people around the globe.
A chess prodigy, Adewumi quickly soared. In 2021, his rating increased from the 1700s to the 2100s. Adewumi became a national
master and, just a few months later, earned his FM title. His inspiring story continues to inspire people from all over the world, and
multiple national and international media outlets picked up on his story. Below you can see one of Adewumi's television appearances:
Tanitoluwa's story is one of determination in the face of adversity. Born in Nigeria, his family faced many challenges, including
financial hardships and political unrest. But amidst the chaos, Tanitoluwa found solace and purpose in the game of chess.
At the age of eight, Tanitoluwa discovered his love for chess and began playing in local tournaments. Despite not having access to
formal training or resources, his natural talent shone through, and he quickly rose through the ranks.

I went to school with Nigerians in Europe. Man, Nigerians are Brilliant. Hugs from Angola my Nigerian family. There's a touch of God in the Nigerian people. We might be a little messed up now( Jeremiah 2:21) But, we will get back on top right in place.
@elainesmith7512 because just like every other ethnic group, Nigerians also have their criminals. However, putting biases, media prejudice, and focusing on facts only, you'll find that Nigerians are nowhere near being the biggest scammers (individuals and corporations included) in the world.
The US and other so called advanced nations actually lead in the scamming and financial crimes department. You, unknown to you, probably have a few in your circle of friends and family but some other group gets the reputation. It's the way of the world Elaine Smith.
@@elainesmith7512that "reputation" is pushed by the media. We don't have more scammers than Indians or Chinese. Even other African scammers have been known to claim to be Nigerian when caught.
@@elainesmith7512 i guarantee u that there are more scammers in ur country . Do you know what our population is? Of course there are so few bad eggs but majority of us are not scammers
Nigerian chess player "Tunde Onakoya" just won in Germany. He played with 10 people at once and won.
Is he the dude that teaching chess in slums in Lagos?
@@0yetolaYes he is.
@Oyetola No, that’s a different person known as Tunde Onakoya
@@adedamolamalik7169 it’s the same guy
We have a parable in Nigeria that goes like this, " when a child washes his hands well, he eats with kings".
You make USA and Nigeria proud.
It actually is "if a child knows how to wash his hands well, he will eat with the elders".
See why I married a Nigerian. I don’t know what God out there I had to get some. Naija indeed no Dey carry last
Your Children Will Be Very Brilliant 🧠 🧠
Nigeria is light to the world...no one or any situation can deam our shine
Go and fix your country delusional one.
Not even the leader
Yes o them no reach
Amen! God's faithfulness is sure for us!
they try but fail woefully. haha. the more they try the more God frustrates their efforts cause He has his hand on Nigeria. We pave the way, we have the ideas and the talent, and these envious jealous nuisances try hard and hard to steal some of these ideas still they do nothing good with them but end up becoming miserable low lives anyway.
Let the whole world beware, Nigeria is coming out to become GREAT.
In-sha-Allah
We Are Already Great All Over The World 🌎 Nigerian Are The Most Educated People Here In USA 🇺🇸
yes be great in the hospital the education system medical arena and construction of community roadways ....please bring your educated physicians to Nigeria from UK & usa.. we need them in nigeria 🎉
First time subscribers I'm from Trinidad and Tobago I love this story and I love Nigeria 🇳🇬 ❤️ and Africa 😮🎉❤
Lots of l❤❤❤❤❤ from 🇳🇬 🇳🇬
We love you too Trini guy.
We love you too ❤
Tanitoluwa? Kosi! His name means: who is as great/big as the Lord? No-one! Tanitoluwa, you shall do great things. Amen. May the Good Lord protect, guard, and protect you. Amen. Amen. Amen. ❤
Amen, coming from a Ghanaian in the USA. He's blessed!
We black people are highly intelligent. There's so much intelligence in our gene. As an African myself who learned about my history, sometimes I'm amazed at the things Africans were able to do in all areas before the arrival of the Europeans. Slavery and colonization thwarted Africa's development
The subject at hand here is about 8yrs old 🇳🇬 Nigeria super star….. it’s not the first time nor the last time.
So, keep your African intelligence for your championship.
@@dubemellit2932 Hahaha cope. Hope you are not bitter. Africans are intelligent is my maintain.
@@dubemellit2932 Pouring cold water?
I am tempted to go with @dubemellit2932 on this 😂😂😂 because Nigeria have a bad rep among other Africans but when a Nigerian does something great everyone starts saying it's a black or African thing.
Yeah! But can't seem to get it together in our own countries. It's often about making the west great, greater and greatest, running to enrich those who are against us, but will take every inch all all we have that is good. And keep us
Congratulations Nigeria 🇳🇬
He is Nigerian after all 😂😂😂❤❤❤from Namibia 🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦
What funny@@rehabeamnepaya5942
Blacks are highly intelligent and critical thinkers. The only problem with Africa is leadership
❤️💛💚✊🏾🖤 from a Black African American, American by force!!! Congratulations cuzin!!!
You are one of us bro we claim you 🇳🇬
They will farm his intellect for their benefit wake up
@@mypiebecamepizza9503stop it , we are really one
@@abzigwe3656wake up to what please leave your division aside we have enough
I claim him as well coming from a Ghanaian American 🇬🇭🇺🇸
The world chess ♟️ champion is also a Nigerian, they are doing well
Nigeria is blessed congratulations kid
💯🙏🏽
The credit goes to God for blessing this young man with intelligence.
very
May God protect you, brother.
Ase. Thanks for watching.
@@HistoricalAfrica, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?!?!?!? WE ARE THE GREATEST THAT THE MOST HIGH PUT ON THE EARTH!! WE ARE THE APPLE OF HIS EYE!!!! 🖤🌹MUCH LOVE TO THIS YOUNG KING, MUCH RESPECT!! WHAT AFRICA DOESN'T REALIZE IS MOST white people ARE NOT SMART NOR INTELLIGENT!! THEY HAVE BEEN STEALING FROM US SINCE WE MADE THEM CIVILIZED!!! WAKE UP AFRICA!!! THESE EDOMITES DON'T LOVE YOU'LL, THEY WANT WHAT YOU HAVE, RESOURCES & IDEAS!!🖤🌹 FROM YOUR ISRAELITE SISTER IN THE u.s.a. BLESSINGS TO AFRICANS, ALWAYS 🌹🖤
@@HistoricalAfrica, I tried to post on your platform but it won't allow me to. The COMMENT box is not up on my page. That's why I'm saying it here. To let you know CZcams is WICKED, when it comes to spreading OUR FANTASTIC NEWS!!! SHAME ON THEM!!!
Just too brilliant Yoruba with the intelligent for this Chess. 😂🇳🇬💪🔥🔥🤨
This is wonderful 👍🏾 Amazing Nigerian boy 🇳🇬We Nigerians 🇳🇬,our kids 🇳🇬🥰we are very intelligent 🥰We are Nigerians 🇳🇬 are proud of him 🤎👍🏾
Do not kid with Nigeria, you people! Congratulations to our son!
Nigerians are great people
👍🏿👍🏿
Nigeria to the world Africans to the world black race to the whole world, black is beautiful ❤❤❤
Just leave chess for Nigerians just recently Tunde Onakoya just won in Germany 🇩🇪 after playing with ten persons
Stay tuned. We are going to make a video about him.
I'm so proud of him...amazing🎉 Tanitoluwa looto!
Is it just genes or the food you Nigerians eat,please share with the rest of Africa or better still pass on those genes of intelligence thru intermarriages,maybe Africa can prosper.You are good in almost everything, Congratulations,there you go boy, Congratulations 💪💪💯💯🔥🔥
❤❤
We are up for spreading the genes. We have been doing it but we can still do more. Intermarriage is quite necessary for everyone involved.
It is just the drive and desire to succeed in whatever we do
Nigerians can survive in the hardest conditions. When coming second or third in your class as kids, you parents will tell u that the person who came first does not have 2 heads. They are proud of you and celebrate u at ur back when they are with other parents but not in ur front so it doss not get to ur head😅😅😅😅
@@adedejiire6341 .
So true. And when you come first and rejoice, they will tell you to sit down and don't let it get into your head.
We Africans the only Race that blessed with all Heavenly blessings ❤
Nigerians are making great strides all over the world but the western media would rather push stories on the few bad eggs amongst us. Like the bad eggs amongst us are in the minority minority not the majority..Anyway well done champ. Keep making your country Nigeria proud
I'm not surprised at his achievement, he's got the Nigerian win win mentality in him. Can you imagine him at age 10 yrs achieving such feat.
Another Nigerian GENIUS WAS Born. Heaven Is Your Limit. Nigeria Is Will Soon Rule The World.Thanks For Sharing.
Always Nigeria... I'm proud 🇳🇬
Loving your last admonition "the power to succeed lies within you" and not in quota system or religious extremism.
I heard that too
Yep, bit you need God, take it from me.
@@followGreatness God is not a religion. Just because someone doesn't belong to any church or mosque doesn't mean the person is an atheist.
Thank you for making our country 🇳🇬 proud
Young man makes me so proud to be African. Nigeria you are a great people.
Nigeria come and get our baby and set him for greatness at home!!!!
Which home if he did not compete abroad would you know him at home?
God will not allow you
We need to take care of our own and not allow the enemy to raise our children and if you are not of African descent, I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU ❤️💛💚✊🏾🖤 keepa moving.
@@ancientDna1979we are our worst enemy!! In case you didn’t know, it was a white man who taught him the game.
This imaginary enemy we black people have in our minds are ruining us. it’s time for us to emancipate ourselves from this boogie man syndrome when the biggest danger to black people are other black people themselves.
@@tochukwuejim2450 Nigeria will forever be his home. What a negative person you are.
This was over 2 years ago. We're the most intelligent in the world. Naija 🇳🇬
Calm down!
Continue to shine young man.❤️
We like this from brothers around the world
Thank you.
There is a billion of children's in Africa smarter and more ready to accept everything like super star 🌟 😂
Also do one on the South African kid who can calculate large numbers without a calculator
We have lost him to the US no CAP. Blessed kid.
who is we?
Bro he is still our own that mentally needs to change. The diaspora are still Nigerian, just different experiences.
No we didn't
@@abzigwe3656he will end up representing America not Nigeria
@@ChrisT-qh5iz and soo he is still African. And Nigerian!
My heart is red.
Thank you Jesus for showing us mercy.
My little brother you made me Proud.
👍🏿👍🏿
Upcoming Grand Master
Thank God for you, boy, keep shining
AMAZING! ...it is a blessing to have such a child! ...not all dads respect this - but his dad does.
Move though the matrix like a Dolphin though water.
When the stirring stops the cream naturally goes to the top.
proverb for those who understand ..well said !!👑
