A Nigerian lady, @damivicx1, has celebrated her graduation from Delta State University (DELSU), Abraka, after emerging as the best in her department.

The scholar shared her academic journey on TikTok, revealing how she balanced leadership roles and entrepreneurship with her studies.

Academic success at DELSU

The graduate explained that her journey started with financial hurdles in her first year, which forced her to monetize her skills.

She noted that her set was made to write theoretical examinations, while previous students wrote objective questions.

Despite the changes in the examination format, she excelled in her papers without relying on past questions. She stated that her academic performance improved significantly from her 300-level, where she began recording mostly A's.
