During a conversation with Legit.ng, Daniel Alakija, a lab assistant at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, congratulated the student while offering a word of wisdom for him.
He said:
"I was once a student, and I fully understand his story. I studied at the University of Lagos, UNILAG, and I had a similar experience with Dosumu. You see, while I was in secondary school, I really wasn't the brightest student in my class and many of my teachers had lost hope in me entering the university, talkless of graduating. But here I am now. I just pray that one day, he would also have a testimony to share to a large crowd."
