 *Can we meet you?* Certainly. My name is Shakirah Adewole, officially ADEWOLE SHAKIRAH ADEBOLA. I'm a visibly Muslim woman, and I recently graduated with a First Class degree from the Department of English, Obafemi Awolowo University. *How do you feel bagging first-class degree in the Department of English after 8 years (when it was last recorded)?*  The timeline of 8 years is not quite accurate. After the 2017 record breakers, there have been three students who graduated with First Class honours between 2018 and 2020. However, since 2020, there hasn't been another record of a First Class, so it has been four years since the department last had one.

Beyond all, I'm entirely thankful for my Lord's Graciousness. I'm grateful to Allāh for magnifying my efforts, for aiding me and for buoying me wit...

Every of such situations, especially when I first had C's in 300 level, was so discouraging and demoralising, but upon all that, I still g...
