Precious Adebisi Olujinmi has graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Demography and Social Statistics with First Class Honours from Obafemi Awolowo University, OAU, Ile-Ife.
He graduated during the 2025 academic session with a remarkable CGPA of 4.61/5.00.
Precious’ journey to academic excellence was far from straightforward. He attended six primary schools in six years and five secondary schools in six years, moving from state to state as he tried to find his footing.
Mathematics also posed a major challenge. He had an E8 in WAEC and F9 in NECO, and had to sit for NECO GCE to combine his results during the admission process. Rather than allowing those grades to define him, Precious used them as fuel to push himself further.
At OAU, he defied the odds. He finished his first academic session with a 4.08 CGPA, steadily improved, and ultimately recorded a 5.00 CGPA in his fourth year. Even while dealing with personal struggles, including his father’s illness, he remained determined and finished with a 4.61 cumulative CGPA.
Beyond the classroom, Precious was actively involved in extracurricular activities, including football and school politics, proving that his university experience extended beyond academics.
His story is a reminder that where you start does not have to determine where you finish. Challenges may shape the journey, but determination, resilience and consistency can rewrite the outcome.
