Let me congratulate Senator Ifeanyi Ubah for graduating from Baze University Abuja with a bachelor of law degree yesterday. Sure, he has gotten that paper but of course the Senator does not need any certificate. There are many positives looking at the graduating class with Senator Dino Melaye, and Osita Chidoka (ex-federal minister).
Yes, getting an extra degree could possibly become the evening beer parlour culture. And if that happens, it would be a huge positive for Nigeria. One of the graduates holds a PhD and is a deputy managing director in one Nigeria’s largest banks.
I congratulate them, not because they will remember where those certificates are in 24 hours, but as a sign to challenge young people that education is not just about jobs, but mind liberation and acquisition of knowledge. If not, Senator Ubah who employs thousands will have nothing to do with a university!
