Victor Ayooluwa Babalola has emerged as the overall best graduating student at the University of Uyo (UNIUYO) [2019]. He obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the Department of Economics, Faculty of Science.

He also emerged as the best graduating student in the Department of Economics and Faculty of Science.

According to Victor Ayooluwa Babalola:

“I wrote jamb twice. The first time l tried gaining admission with a score of 230 but was turned down. The second time l scored 198 in jamb and 264 in post UTME. Thank God l finally had admission to study Economics in University of Uyo, this was a dream come true.

While in school, l had a target of becoming the best graduating student in the Economics department. I wrote the dream down of making a first class with 4.75.

However my dream was threatened when l was told that my predecessors who were classified with first class honours had less than 4.75. They said l was embarking on a mission impossible.

In the midst of the discouragement, l was still steadfast that l will still make the dream a reality.

I really do appreciate all my uncle’s family did. They were and still have been a blessing to me.

My uncle’s family were very nice people. They raised me well, taught me Christian values and sorts. I was not maltreated or anything of sort. My mum (aunt) raised me like her own son. Their children became like sisters to me…I regarded them as my sisters. In fact till now, I find it difficult to refer to them as cousins.”
