LASU: Two sisters, one remarkable achievement
What makes the story particularly striking is that neither sister followed the same academic path. Ibukunoluwa pursued Business Education while her sister focused on English Education, yet both arrived at the same outstanding result.
To achieve First Class Honours individually would be noteworthy on its own; to do so simultaneously, as siblings studying different courses, is a feat that has captured the attention of thousands online.
In her post, Ibukunoluwa described the shared achievement as surpassing her own prayers.
Sharing her testimony on X with lovely photos with her sister, she said:
“FIRST CLASS HONOURS 🎓”
“B.Sc. (Ed.) Business Education”
“Becoming a First Class Graduate alongside my sister, who also graduated with First Class Honours in English Education, is more than I could have prayed for.”
“Double First Class Honours!”
