His LinkedIn post read:

"B.Sc. at 20, M.Sc. at 24, MPA at 25, and praying for that PhD by 28. When I earned my undergraduate degree in Business Administration at 20 with a 2:1, I was proud, but I had a lingering feeling that I could do even better. I used that drive to push harder. By 24, I earned my M.Sc. in Marketing, graduating with a Distinction.
"Now, at 25, I am incredibly proud to announce my graduation with my second Master's degree, an MPA in Public Policy from Miva Open University. I finished with a perfect 5.0 CGPA and was recognized as one of the best graduating students. I have never, and will never, allow my age to put a limit on my dreams or stop me from achieving my goals.
"Expanding my academic horizons from Business Admin and Marketing into Public Administration has been a remarkably rewarding challenge. A massive thank you to Miva Open University. Their system gave me the flexibility to successfully juggle this MPA, my rigorous PhD studies, and my professional responsibilities as an Assistant Lecturer at Redeemer's University, all at 25.
