Her LinkedIn post read:

"God does it completely. 4.96/5.0. In 2 days, I'll be graduating, and it still feels unreal. Two years ago, I submitted my application for this Master's programme from a desk in a law office where I earned ₦100,000 monthly. What I lacked in resources, I made up for with determination.
"I self-sponsored this degree, pursued my LL.M. at UNILAG simultaneously, and worked a full-time job in Lagos. Along the way, I changed jobs twice, grew beyond my comfort zone, and discovered possibilities I never knew existed.
"Today, I stand stronger, wiser, and more confident in what God can do with a willing heart. Mastered it with God and grace. This is your sign to invest in knowledge. The return is bigger than you can imagine."
