A Nigerian student, Oluwatobi Olasunkanmi has won the William Charnley Prize for the best First Class in Law at the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom.

The 24 year old Oluwatobi who is the son of the former Minister of Youth Development, Senator Akinlabi Olasunkanmi, happened to be the only student of black descent in the graduating set.

In an official correspondence dated June 26, 2015, addressed to the best First Class Law student, the University's Senior Tutor, Dr Philip Johnson, congratulated the Nigerian lad for the feat.

“Many congratulations on obtaining the best Hughes Hall First Class in your BA in Law. In recognition, the College has awarded you with the William Charnley Prize” said Johnson.

Meanwhile, the father of the award winner, Senator Olasunkanmi, has expressed his joy at the achievement attained by his son, noting that it has not only brought honour to his family but to Nigeria as a whole. “Sincerely speaking, my joy is not only because he is my son but because he has represented Nigeria well by bringing a laurel which has manifested in the best First Class Prize in Law”.

Good to know he is a Nigerian and he is being celebrated.

God will continue to bless you with more wisdom & knowledge and also continue to bless your parent with more wealth & good health

You need money if you want quality and
quantitative education

Brilliance without money sometimes hit the rock but brillance with money shines in flying colours just like him

He is of Yoruba blood,bravo !!!

Ok. Pls, No Tribalists are needed here. He is a Nigerian and we are all proud of him.

Great Nigerians are doing great outside the country. God bless Nigerians wherever they are all over the globe

Nigerians are doing good in other countries but do rubbish in their own country

But why is it always yorubas ehn Hausas no dey nigeria ni?

But as a matter of fact, outta ten achievements by nigerians, there's every probability that atleast five of them are yorubas...
