UNIOSUN graduate's First Class result
What makes Mohammed's achievement particularly striking is the context in which he achieved it. Balancing departmental leadership responsibilities alongside the academic demands of a Banking and Finance programme is no small feat, yet his final result places him firmly among the top graduates in his field.
His certificate, shown on camera, bore the First Class classification alongside the 4.50 CGPA figure, leaving little room for doubt about the quality of his performance throughout his time at the institution.
Mohammed's CGPA attracts attention online
@jehovicious's post quickly drew attention from viewers who were impressed by the combination of student leadership and academic excellence that Mohammed demonstrated during his time at UNIOSUN.
Many pointed to his story as an example of what is possible when commitment to both responsibility and study is maintained throughout a university programme.
Speaking with Legit.ng, Mohammed explained that his interest in money and the stock market played a major role in his decision to study Banking and Finance.
The UNIOSUN graduate said he gained admission in 2022 with an initial interest in Corporate Finance, but had to choose Banking and Finance because it was the closest option available at his institution.
"I gained admission in 2022, and I graduated this year, 2026. My love for money, the stock market actually inspired me. I originally wanted to study Corporate Finance, but my school only offers Banking & Finance so I had to take it," he told Legit.ng.
Despite the demands of his course, Mohammed said he had an enjoyable university experience. He revealed that he served as a president, maintained an active social life and attended parties while ensuring that his social activities did not affect his academics.
The graduate, however, said his major challenges were largely social, particularly issues involving relationships with friends. Academically, he said his biggest struggle was maintaining the grades needed to secure a First Class.
"I actually had a very fun school experience, I was president, I had a good social life, I attended parties, but I balanced it well with my studies," he said.
Mohammed explained that some of the Cs he received felt like failures to him because of his determination to graduate with a First Class. He said he responded by adopting a stricter reading method, which he later shared in a post on X that went viral.
"My challenges were social, basically relationships with friends. Educational wise, I never really had any prblems, asides the fact that I struggled to get my first class degree, the 'Cs' I got were my biggest challenge academic wise, and I fixed my relationship problems with communication and closure and treated my educational problems by just creating stricter reading method which I shared on my Twitter in a now viral post," he said.
Although Mohammed said he never failed a course throughout his university journey, he admitted that receiving Cs sometimes felt like failure to him because of the standard he had set for himself.
He also revealed that he did not venture into business while in school because his parents would not allow him to do so.
"I never failed a course, but Cs felt like failure to me if I'm being honest. I didn't do any businesses as my parent wouldn't allow," he said.
Reflecting on one of his happiest moments as a student, Mohammed recalled receiving his 300-level first-semester result, which he described as his best result at the time.
He also revealed that winning a bet around the same period added to the excitement and served as an additional motivation for him.
"My happiest memory was when I saw my 300L first semester result, it was the best one yet, and I won a bet. The bet was kind of a motivation if I'm being honest," he said.
