Another Nigerian, Olujimi Fafowora, has made a first-class honours degree at the University of Oxford in England.
Fafowora, 21, graduated summa cum laude in Mathematics at St. Peter’s College, Oxford.
It was learnt that Fafowora becomes the second Nigerian to have ever made a first class at Oxford.
Last year, he was appointed a Fellow of the College and will remain at Oxford for another year pursuing his post-graduate studies.
He is the grandson of Ambassador and Mrs Dapo Fafowora.
“Before Oxford, he was at Haberdashers College, a private school in London from where he obtained nine distinctions on his O levels, and four A levels distinctions. We are very proud of him,” Ambassador Fafowora said.
Ambassador Fafowora was a Commonwealth Scholar at Trinity College, Oxford from 1969 to 72.
