By An alumnus of the Lagos State University, Oluwabunmi Amosu has made headlines following her incredible academic feat.
Amosu, who graduated with a first class in Business Administration, recently bagged a Master of Arts in Education and Society at McGill University in Canada, graduating with a perfect CGPA (4.0/4.0).
She made this known in a Facebook post on Thursday, where she dedicated her academic achievement to her late dad, Sewhenu Amosu who passed away a year ago.
The post read, “Today, I am grateful to have graduated with a distinction and a perfect CGPA (4.0/4.0) at McGill University, Canada (M.A Education and Society). I had a total of 15A’s in all of my courses, a milestone that I am proud of! So much hard-work.
“I dedicate this WIN to my beloved father (Sewhenu Amosu) who I lost exactly one year ago (June 2nd, 2021). Dear Papa, today I walk across the stage in honor of you. I hope you and mummy are proud of me in heaven.
“Allow me to reintroduce myself: First class, LASU, Nigeria; Winner and participant of MCF summer program @Sciences Po, France; Distinction, McGill University, Canada; Winner of Dobson (MCF Awards).
“I am open to strategic partnership with international organizations, NGOs, private and public firms on developmental projects particularly in the field of education and girls empowerment.”
The Badagry-born Amosu was one of the scholars selected for the Mastercard Foundation Scholarship Program.
In 2020, she founded Smart Innovation Hub, a non-profit organization that aims to promote entrepreneurship skills among young people, particularly girls in Africa. For its project “Smart Pad”, the organization won $18,000 for first place in the Mastercard Foundation Startup Awards and third place in the Dobson Social Impact Enterprise Track.
