A Nigerian man, Olawale, expressed his disappointment with the recognition he received from his school, the Air Force Institute of Technology, after graduating as the overall best student in the 2021/2022 academic year with a remarkable 4.99/5.0 CGPA. Despite his outstanding achievement, he was given just two plaques without any monetary reward. Olawale lamented that his high CGPA was only acknowledged with plaques and no financial incentive.
The school had celebrated his achievement by creating a jersey displaying his CGPA. However, despite the disappointment from his university, Olawale received a full scholarship to continue his studies at Boston University. He shared his story on social media, revealing that despite not receiving financial rewards from his school, he had secured a significant opportunity at Boston University.
Olawale lamented over the fact that all he had been given for graduating [/b]with such high CGPA was just the plaques, without a single naira attached to it.
He wrote …
“Bro!!! this was all I got, after 4.99/5.0 not even 5 naira. People come spread rumour join say Chief of Air Staff give me money.
