A 57-year-old grandfather, Mr Isiaka Alli, was, on Thursday, named among 21 graduating students with first class degrees as 1,582 students graduated from the University of Ibadan (UI). Alli, the elder brother of the chairman of Odu’a Conglomerate, Chief Sarafadeen Alli, graduated from the Faculty of Law and was also joint winner of the best graduating student for the 2011/2012 academic session. He bagged his first degree 35 years ago and, thereafter, a second degree from Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife. Alli’s feat enthralled the crowd at the graduation ceremony held in the Trenchad Hall, when he was called for a handshake with the vice chancellor, Professor Isaac Adewole. He told newsmen that faith and the determination to move the country forward informed his enrolling to study Law in the university. Speaking on the occasion, Professor Adewole blamed the low number of first degree holders on the graduation list to the disruption of the 2011/2012 academic calendar. www.tribune.com.ng/index.php/news/51008-grandfather-bags-first-class-in-law-as-ui-graduates-1582 9 Likes |

Mehn,am so proud of that man. Education for me is far beyond studying for just 4 or 5 years, it's continous. Personally despite my degree,I have not had that personal fulfilment. 'Thinking of pursuing my second degree too,-considering the level of education in our country. I just admire this man's courage! quite challenging. |
