I Graduated With 2nd Class Upper From University Of Ibadan Prof. Wole Soyinka by Nobody: 2:51am On Jul 15, 2013 |
For decades, Prof. Wole Soyinka has kept a secret to himself, his grade when he left University College, Ibadan. But yesterday, the Nobel Laureate disclosed that contrary to insinuations, he graduated with a Second Class Upper and not Third Class as widely believed. Soyinka broke his silence when he hosted secondary school students from across the country who were in Abeokuta, Ogun State to take part in this year’s “Open Doors Series” project, an international cultural exchange programme to mark his 79th birthday. According to Soyinka, he had kept silent on the matter over the years, but decided to open up for the sake of the children as mark of respect for them. 1 Like 1 Share |

Well prof, why now, the myth has outgrown this current revelation, even my dumb english lecturer uses that as basis to fail us blindly (I hope it doesn't have to do with the heated polity) Defence tactic ![]() ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |
