Two best graduates, male & female and two worst graduates, male
& female in the 2016/2017 academic sessions of the University of
Ilorin, have been awarded scholarships to study in Oxford, UK.
The announcement, made by the registrar of the university, Emmanuel
Obafemi, at the second day of the 33rd convocation of the university on
Saturday, was greeted by loud ovation at the event.
He said that the cumulative grade performance aggregate (CGPA) determined the beneficiaries.
The scholarship awards were presented to the graduates by an
international scholar, chair and founder of Excellence in Education
Programme, Oxford, UK, Professor Chris Imafidon,
Prof. Imafidon, who had argued, while delivering the 33rd convocation
lecture of the university, entitled, The Genius in You, said there was
no worst graduates, but rather, the country was blessed with human
resources, and he planned to turn them all to geniuses.
