From a 4.07 Start to a First Class Finish: The Resilience of Victory Agho

The academic community is celebrating the remarkable "comeback" story of Victory Agho, who has graduated with First Class Honours in Law (LL.B) with a specialization in Corporate Law from Igbinedion University, Okada (IUO).

Victory concluded the 2025 academic session with a stellar Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 4.65/5.00, a feat that seemed unlikely during her first year. Reflecting on her early days at the university, she described a period of significant struggle characterized by late resumption and the overwhelming pressure of catching up with her peers.

Her academic journey began with a 100-level first-semester CGPA of 4.07—a respectable score, but one that fell short of her personal aspirations. This initial hurdle became the catalyst for a total transformation in her study habits. By choosing "discipline over comfort" and maintaining focus through periods of self-doubt, Victory achieved a consistent upward trajectory in her grades every subsequent semester.

"A rough beginning and a beautiful ending," Victory remarked, summarizing a journey defined by late-night study sessions and unwavering perseverance. Her success stands as a powerful narrative for students who may feel discouraged by early academic setbacks. 

As a Igbinedion University trailblazer, Victory Agho now prepares for the next phase of her legal career, carrying with her a legacy of grit and academic excellence.
