Student overcames grief after father’s death and graduates with first class honors
A Nigerian graduate, Iyiola Oladunjoye has recounted his story of resilience after suffering a huge loss during his final examinations.
The UNILORIN graduate revealed that he had lost his father some days before his second semester final examinations and was really disstablized by the loss.
However, he was able to surmount his grief and graduate with flying colors, bagging a first class degree in microbiology from university of Ilorin.
Oladunjoye wrote on Twitter …
“From 3.67 to 4.99 CGPA. Wasn’t in my right frame of mind that second semester. Lost my father few days to exam. I just thought to myself; if I eventually dropout due to financial reasons, I must do so in honor (to my father). Few years later, I graduated with a First Class Honors.”
