A 70-year-old man identified as Ben Duamlong, has graduated from the University of Jos (UNIJOS) with a first-class degree.
According to DailyTrust, Duamlong graduated from the institution in 2022–2023 together with 20,532 other students.
The ex-Super Eagles coach claimed that after retiring as a football coach, he chose to enroll in the undergraduate program because he was passionate about learning.
The septuagenarian claimed that it shouldn’t be the case that earning a first-class degree is considered to be a difficult undertaking for students.
