Man celebrates as he becomes first graduate

In his post, he expressed the immense pride and emotion he felt upon receiving his NYSC certificate.

He described how tears flowed down his face, not from sorrow, but from overwhelming joy and pride at having shattered a long-standing barrier in his family.

His statement:

“Tears streamed down my face as I collected my NYSC certificate today. You might wonder why I was crying instead of celebrating, huh? I cried because I broke a jinx. I became the first graduate in my family (both immediate and extended).”

Man graduates with first class after scoring 191

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a Nigerian man, Uche, has caused a stir online as he announced bagging a first class degree in his master's program.

While failing to mention the institution he finished from, Uche wrote on X that he did a master's program in software engineering.

Uche revealed he scored 191 in his Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) and advised people never to let any institution make them feel they are not good enough.

In a recent development, Legit.ng also reported a Nigerian young man who graduated with first class has revealed what motivated him to pursue academic excellence.
