God Did!!!

  • Best Graduating Student, Faculty of Law, Obafemi Awolowo University OAU.
  • Highest CGPA recorded in 60 years of the inception of the faculty of law, OAU
  • 12 Academic Prizes & the University prize for the Most Awarded Student for the graduating year.

Mine is not a story of luck, but one of sheer grace and favour. A long journey it was – one riddled with ups and downs. Times I questioned myself for choosing this path, the strikes and delays, but at last, the end has come. Being able to set a new faculty record, make a 5.0 in 3 consecutive semesters, while juggling internships and competitions was indeed a tasking feat. But I am a just a pawn on the chess board, my mum’s prayers were responsible for these.

I know it. It was too evident all through. And I can’t turn a blind eyes to it. For this, I am thankful to my parents and I am more than grateful to God. Moreover, I am just a pencil in his hands.

In the mean time, I am happy to be joining the O’Neill institute of Georgetown University in Washington D.C this winter for a short term role as a researcher. God be praised!

Congratulations to him.
