Olabisi Onabanjo University Graduate Shares CGPA Heartbreak

Governor Bambam Bilo, a fresh law graduate from Olabisi Onabanjo University, shared his emotional reaction on X after receiving a final CGPA of 3.49. He described the experience as one of profound grief, comparing the disappointment to the loss of a parent, highlighting the significant gap between his expectations and the result.

A CGPA of 3.49 is just below the 3.50 threshold typically required for a Second Class Upper degree at most institutions, indicating a razor-thin margin for a higher classification. Despite his heartbreak, Bilo expressed gratitude towards Olabisi Onabanjo University and conveyed hope for better performance at the Law School.

His candid post struck a chord with many Nigerians, particularly law graduates, who understand the intense pressure associated with degree classifications and their impact on career opportunities and bar placement outcomes.
