Young Nigerian lady shares moment with governor as she emerges best student

A brilliant Nigerian lady, Wakilat Kikelomo Zakariyau, has graduated from Osun State University with a first-class in linguistics and communications studies.

Wakilat topped her impeccable degree result by emerging as the overall best student in the faculty of humanities.

Celebrating the feat on her LinkedIn wall, the young lady said it still feels surreal to have achieved such feats.

She started with a perfect GPA in her first year at the university

Wakilat revealed that though she had recorded a GPA of 5.0 in her first year, becoming the best student wasn’t in her plans initially.

With time, the goal grew on her and she was able to combine academic excellence pursuit with other activities on campus that include journalism, entrepreneurship, mentoring junior colleagues amongst others.

Osun State governor shared the sweet moment with her

One of the highpoints from her convocation was when the Osun State Governor Adegboyega Oyetola presented the lady with an award.

She wrote:

“It is the end of a hectic journey for me, but also the beginning of an adventure that leads to success and glory by His Grace. I am super excited about this next phase and I am so proud of myself. Cheering to greatness because the future is brighter than the sun. ✨❤️”

Social media users celebrate her

Lateef Ayinde said:

“Hijab is not a barrier, keep it up sis Wakilat Kikelomo Zakariyau and try to apply for PhD scholarship in a foreign university immediately. This is the beginning of goodness. You can chat me if you are interested.”
