A Nigerian man identified as Stephen Ishola Adedokun has set a new record after he graduated from Ladoke Akintola University of Technology with eight distinctions in medical sciences.

Reporters had a chat with the young genius to get the details on how he made it. Adedokun who noted that he spent ten years in the university said he was able to achieve this milestone through the mercy of God.

He said: "Through the mercy of God, I had distinctions in anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology, pathology, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Community medicine and surgery from 8 out of 10 departments. Though my class spent ten years in the University, I am glad we made it eventually." Adedokun who was born on September 13, 1989, hails from Kwara state. "I am Stephen Ishola Adedokun born on the 13th of September 1989 to Mr Sunday Adedokun and Mrs Grace Adedokun in the town of Kaiama, Kwara state. I am a Christian and originate from Igboho, Orelope local government. Oyo state." Meet Nigerian man who graduated with 8 distinctions in medical sciences from LAUTECH

During the interview with newsmen, Adedokun talked about his educational background. He revealed that he had always been a good student right from his early school days. "I had my primary education at FGGC staff nursery and primary school Kainji, Niger state under the watchful eye of my uncle Mr Adedokun Adewale. I started out in primary one as class rep and continued till primary five when I became the assistant head boy. The school enrolled me in Primary five for common entrance examination where I bagged the best result for the school and ninth in the town. I proceeded to NEPA staff secondary school Kainji, one of the best in the state. With the help of God taking first position from Jss 1 through 3 and most of the prices. I resumed the post of class rep in JSS2, a post I dropped when I became the school senior prefect in SS2. I had nine distinctions, two credits in Junior NECO examination. I continued in science class in the same school where I was awarded a Rotary club scholarship and finished with 8As and B3 in English language in WAEC. I sat for UTME in 2008 with score of 283 and proceeded to LAUTECH, Ogbomoso for my medical training."

The genius who expressed that growing up with a single uncle was hard, noted that he had to work twice as hard in his studies so he could win book prices. He also explained that he was working as an assistant electronic appliance repairer for his uncle. "Living with a single uncle wasn't easy until he got married. It was a tough but impactful one.

Living from school to workshop, back to home. And the cycle continued. Yes, I worked with my uncle as a "radionic" (electronic appliance repairer) as we were popularly called. I can remember working to purchase my Ababio, PN Okeke, Modern biology and the likes because I was given exercise books as price the previous graduation ceremony. To me then, my escape from having to buy textbooks was to be the best in as many subjects as possible in order to be awarded the textbooks."

Ebuehi, who was making his competitive debut for Nigeria, also spoke of his happiness at playing at the 2018 World Cup.

“It was a nice feeling coming on.


“I was comfortable playing there as I have played in that role a few times for my club so it is nothing new. To be honest I will play in any position for my country at the World Cup.”

On the penalty, he added: “I knew it was a penalty even before the referee went to check the VAR. I arrived late and caught the Iceland forward but thankfully they missed”.

A long year mad man who has been roaming on the street of Ikole-Ekiti in Ikole local government area of Ekiti state for over ten years was miraculously healed today, the mad man popularly called 'Pastor' got healed when some members of winners church were going on street evangelism, they met the mad man where he was laying beside the street and he stood up and asked them to pray for him, one woman among the evangelists prayed for him and thereafter the mad man said they should barb his hair for him which they did in the presence of many people that have gathered to witness what was going on.

After the barbing, his behavior and utterances turned normal and was apparently feeling ashamed which signaled that he has regained his mentality, he demanded that they should take him to the church and he was taken to the living faith church (Winners) at Oba Adeleye road, corner Folusho in Ikole and hundreds of people mobbed the scene to see what has happened.

He gave his name as Adekunle Akomolafe from Akure, He was given soap and water to bath and later said he is feeling sleepy,

I got to the scene and met with the head pastor of the church Pastor Ikechukwu Okafor who gave hint of the whole scenario, he said anyone who wish to see the man should come to the church by 9am tomorrow, he said efforts are been made to get his relations

I am presently writing from the church and as I write, the healed man is just waking up from his sleep that has lasted for over 45 minutes

I Got $1.1m after Bishop Oyedepo laid hands on me - U.S evangelist, Shuttlesworth


In his words:

I believe in the laying on of hands... When Rodney & Adonica Howard-Browne laid hands on me, my next revival went 3 weeks & produced over 200 New Decisions for Christ in a church of 180... When David Oyedepo Ministries International laid hands on me & commanded me to be blessed, I took in 1.1 million dollars less than 8 weeks later... Tonight I flew to Canada to have the living legend PASTOR E. A. ADEBOYE lay hands on me... He prayed that a new dimension of signs & wonders would accompany my ministry... I am so thankful that a man of his caliber would take time to pray from his heart for me... I am so expectant... I love you Pastor Adeboye... Your life has blessed me more than you know

They had shut down the school and vowed not to open it until the state government reversed its decision. However, the university’s gate was opened today, prompting another round of protest which led to the killing of at least three.
