An exceptional Nigerian lady named Nneka Ikediashi broke the 40-year-old record of Ambrose Alli University’s Faculty of Law after she graduated with a first class degree.
Nneka obtained her Bachelor of Law degree with a 4.77 over a 5.00 cumulative grade point average at Ambrose Alli University, Nigeria. Her achievement earned her the overall best graduating student in her set.
Celebrating her achievement on Linkedin, Nneka said she scored the highest cumulative grade point average since the inception of the faculty 40 years ago. She said her result culminated in 52 A grade, 8 B grade, and 3 C grade.
Nneka was also the best female graduating student of the faculty. She noted that she served as the Chief Judge, of the university’s LAWSAN JURAL Court.
She stated that her accomplishments are a testament to God’s unwavering grace and faithfulness. Reflcting on her journey, she said it began six years ago after she narrowly missed the cutoff mark of the Faculty of Law by one.
She said she was initially admitted to study Political Science and had no interest in any particular course, but was determined to excel in her studies
Nneka said she achieved a 5.0 grade point average in both first-year semesters which sparked a desire to maximize her academic and professional opportunities.
She stated that this desire led her to pursue a transfer to Law, driven by pragmatism rather than passion. Nneka said her decision was rooted in the potential for growth and opportunities, rather than an interest in the subject.
She stated that she transferred to Law in her second year and it marked the beginning of an intense academic journey. Nneka said with cautious optimism, she stepped into the faculty of law determined to do her best.
Nneka said that doubt surrounded her and graduating with First Class Honours seemed impossible, having been achieved by only one student. But she held onto faith, trusting God’s plan and striving for the best that she could.
She stated that even though challenges arose, particularly missing results due to her unique matriculation number, which in turn caused devastating imbalances. However, she persevered.
Nneka expressed her gratitude to her family, loved ones, friends, colleagues, senior colleagues, lecturers, and God Almighty, who made the impossible feat possible.
