Identical twin brothers Taiye and Kehinde Adegoke have made their family proud after they both graduated with First Class Honours in Law from the University of Ibadan.
The Twin graduated with excellent results and were the second and third best graduating male students in their faculty.
Kehinde had a Cumulative Grade Point Average of 6.0 out of a maximum point of 7.0, while Taiye graduated with 6.1 out of a maximum point of 7.0.
The identical twins made history, by becoming the first twins to bag first class in Law at University of Ibadan, as announced at the University’s recent convocation.
While studying in University of Ibadan, UI, Taiye was the Students’ Union Public Relations Officer, 2014/2015 session, while Kehinde was a two-time major contender for the post of the Students’ Union President. They are also musicians and released some songs while on campus.
Recall that the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Ibadan Professor Idowu Olayinka recently congratulated 12 graduates of the institution, who made first class degree in their Final Bar Examinations of the Nigerian Law School.
The VC in his Facebook post said the achievement of the students, their lecturers as well as their parents and guardian will receive a favourable mention in the Vice-Chancellor’s Address at the 2018 Convocation and 70th Founders’ Day on Saturday, 17th November 2018.
