69-year-old Kate Akomolafe gains admission to UI, vows to graduate with first class

Kate Bosede Akomolafe, a 69-year-old woman, became a media
sensation after she was matriculated into the Distance Learning Centre of the
University of Ibadan (UI).

 

Akomolafe joined the other five thousand students who were
sworn in into the DLC programme of the institution on Friday.

 

In a post on Facebook, management of the institution said
Akomolafe is a retired data processing officer at RT Briscoe Motor Company and
currently a pig farmer.

 

The management noted that Akomolafe was a distributor of
baking flour with affiliation to the Nigerian Eagle Flour Mills.

 

Akomolafe was enrolled into the social work department to
“enable her to broaden her knowledge to successfully manage her Non-Government
Organization”.

 

Born December 22, 1956, Akomolafe obtained her West African
School Certificate in 1976 from Government Secondary School, Creek Road, Port
Harcourt.

 

She went back to school to resit for the WASSCE and National
Examination Council (NECO) in 2024 to “acquire enough credits to obtain a
university admission” and earn a bachelor’s degree.

 

“Akomolafe is a mother of 4 successful children, including
three men and a lady. Akomolafe is undaunted by the task ahead!” the varsity
wrote.

 

“She is determined to put in her best and aspires to obtain
a First Class at the end of her programme.”
