A
law student from GRA, Benin City, Osarieme Anita Omonuwa has placed an official
stamp on the common saying that Nigeria is blessed with the best brains in the
world – on July 3, Osarieme bagged a First Class degree in Law at Reading
University in the United Kingdom.
Miss
Omonuwa, 20, who hails from Edo State in Nigeria, also received the 2012
prestigious “Chancellor's Award” of the university for her outstanding academic
performance. With this feat, Anita became the first black woman to win the
Reading University Chancellor's Award.
"I
chose the University of Reading as my brother is a graduate and he loved the
student experience. The unprecedented academic standard, diversity of students
and above all the location confirmed my decision. Coming to Reading was one of
the best decisions I have ever made," Anita said.
The
chancellor of the university, Sir John Madejski, on the occasion of the award
presentation last Wednesday, described Omonuwa as “representative of our
brightest and best students”.
KandF
gathered that Anita’s father, Mr. Omoruyi Augustine Omonuwa, is a Senior
Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and holder of national honour, Order of the Federal
Republic (OFR).
