The New Chess Masters (Tunde Onakoya) | DLD 24
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- Tunde Onakoya is a chess master and teacher from Nigeria. In this touching, personal DLD24 presentation, he shares his story of growing up in poverty and finding chess at a young age.
Tunde recalls how chess gave him an intellectual identity and helped him get an education, as he was able to earn scholarships to represent his schools in tournaments.
He now runs Chess in Slums in Africa, a non-profit that uses chess to educate children across Africa - so far, more than 10,000. One of them is Ferdinand, a differently-abled boy from the largest floating slum in Nigeria who excelled at chess and is now preparing for an international tournament despite facing challenges with his cerebral palsy.
Tunde Onakoya’s goal is to give the gift of chess to at least one million African children, helping them develop critical thinking and providing opportunities for a better life.

Whao!, this was a well crafted speech and nicely delivered. He touched on a lot of inspirational punch lines to motivate us all to be more helpful🎉❤
Congratulations to Mr Tunde. You are a true ambassador. If only our African leaders could do better for the people and stop embezzling money, people won't have to go through such a hard way looking for survival opportunities abroad.
Such an intelligent young man.
Thank you for all you do in improving the lives of kids living in slums by using Chess as a tool of empowerment and liberation towards fulfilling their destinies.

Welldone Tunde...in some way we share similar passion giving privileges to kids under....unfortunately, I left active chess....maybe you'd take me in again. Besides scriptures club, I enjoy teaching kids reading too. I see the audience reluctance @ saying after you in the end...the black man bias, maybe...but you move brother.

Ok, what about it ? 😏
Why is CNN and BBC not talking about him?
I guess they prefer to broadcast fake news.
Because they only share bad bad news they're allergic to any good news from Nigeria 😅

I want to play chess too, how can I learn from you?
2:30 What was so funny? 🤔
Okay im asking the same thing it was really annoying me like get out
Ikorodu, is not a slum, please! Get your facts correct. A town that produced Nigeria's first Republic Minister of Information. In Ikorodu and the whole of Lagos State, education is free from primary to secondary schools.
So Ikorodu does not have slums abi. There are slums in most parts of Lagos State, if you lack understanding do your research and shut up. What sort of thinking is this for crying out loud. If there's free education as you claim, why are there children who still don't have access to this "free education". As I said do your research and think with your head.
@@odusanyaadedamola2659 Mention one slum area in Ikorodu township. Let us comment with fact and rationalism. Access to keyboard and data is not synonymous to knowledge. May be Google is your pathfinder.
@@hakeemamuda2007 Your problem may be semantics, what's your definition of slum? Are Ikorodu areas like Victoria Island or lekki or Ikeja?
@yemifest1648 Please don’t mind him, even on the Island here in Lagos, there are slumps area not to talk of rural Ikorodu. Ask him if TOS Benson that he talked about was living in Ikorodu as minister?
I am indigene of Ikorodu. Ikorodu has slums. You have to know the meaning of the word slum. No need to be proud in heart. It doesn't matter if Ikorodu produced the first minister of information (TOS Benson). That's old news. What matter is what can you do improve the people and place.
