University Of Warwick (UK) Honours Nigerian Student Cherish Daniel Markson, For Outstanding Performance In Law Programme And A £250 Prize

The University of Warwick in the United Kingdom (UK) has awarded Cherish Daniel Markson, a Nigerian student, first prize for her exceptional performance in a three-year BA (Hons) law with social sciences degree programme.

Cherish will also receive £250 as part of the prize for her outstanding performance and a formal reception after the main graduation ceremony on July 19.

She is the daughter of Daniel Iworiso-Markson, a former commissioner for information and orientation in Bayelsa state.

In a congratulatory letter, Margaret O’Brien, director of undergraduate studies at the university’s school of law, said Markson scored the highest marks “on the most demanding of all courses”.

“You have been awarded First Prize for your three-year BA (Hons) Law with Social Sciences degree at the University of Warwick. You achieved a second-class higher division degree with an overall average of 67.3%,” the letter reads.

“This was the highest mark of all students on this most demanding course. A record of your prize-winner status will be added to your HEAR transcript.

“Your prize of £250 will be paid directly into your bank account.”

Cherish had maintained good grades before the prize.

Three years ago, Cherish, as a student at Bridge House College, Lagos, was awarded the first prize in the world award in law and high achievement in sociology by Cambridge International.

In November 2021, she bagged a prestigious award for outstanding achievement in her advanced subsidiary-level examination.

She bagged A-stars in nine of her IGCSE subjects: English, Mathematics, Biology, Geography, Literature, Business Studies, Economics, History, and ICT.
