“A Graduate Is Ten Times Better Than a Billionaire Without a Degree” — Kogi University Fresh Graduate

A recent graduate of the Federal University Lokoja (FUL), Victor Akubo, has sparked online debate after declaring that a university graduate is ten times better than a billionaire without a degree. 

Victor made the statement on his Facebook page shortly after his convocation ceremony, celebrating his academic achievement. According to him, higher education gives individuals prestige and knowledge that wealth alone cannot provide. 

He argued that regardless of financial success, anyone without a university degree cannot be considered better than a graduate. Photos shared online showed Victor proudly posing in his graduation gown alongside his friends and family. 

His statement, however, drew mixed reactions from social media users. Many suggested that real-life experiences after school would change his mindset.
