Omoboriowo Samson Loye, a first-class graduate in civil engineering from Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), achieved a remarkable CGPA of 4.63 despite facing significant setbacks, including scoring 0/40 on his first test and enduring challenges that could have derailed his academic journey.

Determined to recover, Omoboriowo devised a plan to maximize his remaining marks, earning a C in the challenging chemistry course. In his final year, he achieved a perfect GPA, demonstrating resilience and commitment to excellence.
Omoboriowo credited his success to disciplined planning, starting his studies early, attending lectures regularly, and engaging in group study sessions. He surrounded himself with supportive peers, actively participated in classes, and sought help when needed.
