A Nigerian woman has celebrated achieving a new milestone in the United Kingdom.

Oyin Olukotun has announced that she bagged a first-class from the prestigious Cambridge University, UK.

The clever student revealed this in a LinkedIn post where she also offered an encouraging account of how she overcame obstacles to accomplish the academic milestone.

She graduated with a first-class law degree from the elite university, but it wasn’t an easy road because there were early failures.

She wrote; “3 years ago I missed my grades to get into Cambridge. Today I graduate from Cambridge with a First Class degree in Law.

“Having felt imposter syndrome regularly throughout the degree to placing within the top 15% of my cohort, I have achieved what my 16 year old self could only dream of and am extremely proud of my achievement.

I could not have completed this degree without the encouragement and support of my friends, family and pastoral support at my college. I remain eternally grateful. I now look forward to starting Thursday and Friday with CMS Academy tomorrow.”
