  • Dr. Olamu is such a charismatic gentlemen. His passion is clearly worn on his sleeve. My botany teacher was also Nigerian, he reminds me so much of him. Great work doctor!
  • every once in a while, a person stands out from the crowd to remind us of certain dangers that we normally brush aside in our daily lives...kudos to this nigerian man
  • I watched the movie Concussion last night and have enjoyed it greatly. Salute to Dr. Omalu and thanks to Will Smith who plays the part so well. To me, a person who dares to speak the truth and have the guts to go all the way deserves the highest respect.....Totally not easy
  • he is like a hero in movies and series who fight against big conglomerates, but in reality.
  • What an amazing person. If only everyone would dare to speak the truth in a world that only hears what they want to xxx
  • thank God there are still people that speak the truth!!!there is still hope for humanity!!my respects for thisDr. as ahuman and a doctor!
  • @MsColetha

  • I watched the premier today... and this movie touched me.... simply amazing and very very insightful God bless the numerous families who lost their sons, fathers and brothers to the harmful effects of CTE. I'm also proud of the work Dr. Omalu did to discover & expose this. soooo proud to be Nigerian

    I'm 2 yrs late. Just saw the kovie on STARZ. I must say that Will Smith played that part excellently. He is in the league of star actors like Densel, Dustin Hoffman, etc.
  • Dr Bennett Omalu, You are one of the many angels pre-destined for this time on earth. May armies of angels continue to open doors for blessings to all families throughout the world. ONE JOY, ONE HOPE, ONE LOVE!!!
  • I love this guy , it’s a shame that I didn’t know him until I’ve watched the movie even though I’m familiar with the term CTE since I have been watching professional wrestling and MMA
  • His pro career lasted 5 years. Thats it. Yet the damage sustained from playing in high school and college and NFL is permanent even 15 years after retiring.

    Now we just need someone to do something similar for the cheerleaders. "A study ranked cheerleading 16th on a list of sports with the highest number of injuries. Another recent study found that cheerleading is the most dangerous sport for females because of the high risk for concussions and “catastrophic” injuries, which are classified as injuries that result in long-term medical conditions, permanent disabilities or a shorter lifespan." And they may not wear any protection...
