Meet the 24-year-old Lady who achieved BSc, MSc, and started PhD, now a university lecturer
The Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) witnessed a spectacular accomplishment when ChinonyeEgbo, a 24-year-old woman, became a lecturer at the university after receiving her MSc.
Despite initial opposition from her father, who had envisioned her following a #career as an #engineer, Chinonye Egbo highlighted her undying passion for teaching in a riveting 2021 video interview recorded by BBC Igbo.
Chinonyeβs steadfast commitment and her motherβs continuous support paved the way for her academic success.
Chinonyeβs mother was aware of her daughterβs strong desire to become a teacher, despite the fact that her father had initially wanted her to pursue a career in engineering.
Her academic career got off to a stellar start during her undergrad years, where she earned a first-class degree.
She continued on to seek her MSc, which she accomplished with equal brilliance, unaffected by the obstacles that lied ahead. Surprisingly, the young prodigy accomplished all of these feats by the age of 24.
Chinonye bravely accepted the challenge of getting a PhD since she was unsatisfied with holding two degrees alone, further demonstrating her commitment to and love of learning.
Her early pursuit of a degree demonstrates her outstanding dedication to academic success.
