Kehinde Ajasa: Best Graduate at Lagos State University

Kehinde Ajasa graduated from the Department of Computer Science at Lagos State University with a CGPA of 4.70, achieving First Class Honours and receiving the Prof. Benjamin Segun Aribisala Prize as the best graduating student in his department, marking a first in the Faculty of Computing and Information. His academic journey was significantly impacted during his first year of junior secondary school when financial constraints forced his family to transfer him to a government school in Alimosho, Lagos.

Despite this, Ajasa excelled, recording As in 51 of 63 courses, holding three scholarships simultaneously, and occupying over six leadership positions. He won more than ten awards and represented his university in a national public speaking competition, which he won.

Ajasa also taught computer science to over 1,500 students, with 70% of those sessions offered for free. He actively mentors youth in the Alimosho community every Wednesday and expressed gratitude to his family and mentors for their support throughout his studies.
