A remarkable story of resilience and determination has emerged from the University of Lagos (UNILAG) as Oluwakemisola Emmanuel, a Mass Communication student who once sought public help to fund her education, has successfully graduated.
Oluwakemisola, who faced severe financial challenges during her time as a student, took to social media to share her inspiring journey. Reflecting on her struggles, she posted photos documenting her life from her early days in 100-level and 200-level to the critical moment when she turned to public appeals for assistance to cover her tuition fees.
The widespread support she received enabled her to continue and complete her studies, culminating in her graduation.
In a heartfelt Instagram post shared on Tuesday, Oluwakemisola celebrated her achievement, posting stunning graduation photos and expressing deep gratitude to God and her benefactors.
“Officially a B.Sc. Mass Communication graduate from the University of Lagos!” she wrote. “What started in December 2017 has finally come to a beautiful end today. I’m deeply grateful to God for guiding me through this journey and to everyone who supported me financially along the way.”
