Academic excellence has once again taken centre stage at Redeemer’s University as two of its alumni, Suulola Oluwatimilehin Oluwaseun and Akinnuwesi Oluwatimilehin Deborah, have added another remarkable accomplishment to their records by graduating with First-Class Honours from the Nigerian Law School.
Their latest success comes after both scholars had earlier distinguished themselves with First-Class degrees in Law from Redeemer’s University, making their achievements a reflection of sustained excellence from undergraduate studies through professional legal training.
The feat was confirmed following the release of the Nigerian Law School Bar Part II examination results, where both graduates emerged among the candidates who earned the coveted First-Class Honours.
For Redeemer’s University, the achievement reinforces the institution's emphasis on nurturing students who combine academic ability with discipline, consistency and character, qualities considered essential for professional success beyond the university environment.
Congratulating the graduates, the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Shadrach Olufemi Akindele, described their accomplishment as a powerful demonstration of the values the university seeks to instil in its students.
According to him, the fact that both graduates maintained the same outstanding standard they achieved during their undergraduate education through the demanding Nigerian Law School programme speaks volumes about their dedication and resilience.
"This speaks volumes about consistency, a mark of excellence that we place a high premium on at Redeemer’s University. The performance is a testament to the quality of training obtainable at Redeemer’s University, not only in Law, but in all other programmes on offer at our noble institution," he said.
The Vice-Chancellor added that the outstanding performance of the two alumni would encourage current and future students of Redeemer’s University, as well as undergraduates in other institutions, to pursue excellence with determination wherever they find themselves.
Both graduates also credited their years at Redeemer’s University with laying the academic and personal foundation that prepared them for the rigours of legal education.
Reflecting on her journey, Suulola Oluwatimilehin Oluwaseun explained that the university's learning environment helped her cultivate habits that became invaluable during her studies at the Nigerian Law School.
"My time at Redeemer’s University played a major role in preparing me for what came next. It wasn’t just about the lectures, but the overall structure and expectations that required discipline and personal responsibility. I developed the habit of studying consistently and paying attention to detail, which became very important later on," she said.
She further praised the institution for balancing academic excellence with character development.
"I’m genuinely grateful for my time at Redeemer’s University. It is a great institution that places strong emphasis on excellence, character, and discipline. That balance makes a real difference in shaping students not just academically but also in how they carry themselves. Looking back, it gave me a solid foundation and the right mindset that helped me adapt and perform well in the Nigerian Law School," she added.
Sharing a similar experience, Akinnuwesi Oluwatimilehin Deborah said the knowledge and practical legal insights she acquired during her five-year programme at Redeemer’s University gave her a significant advantage during her professional training.
"Redeemer’s University was a good foundation for my success at the Nigerian Law School because my experience in those five years helped me build some level of academic knowledge and insights into practical legal systems," she said.
Deborah noted that several courses at the Nigerian Law School felt familiar because they built upon concepts she had already encountered during her undergraduate studies.
"Some subjects at the Nigerian Law School were easily understood because I had background knowledge from previous RUN lectures. They almost felt like revision sessions and matched some of my study materials and personal research notes from Redeemer’s University."
The accomplishment of Suulola Oluwatimilehin Oluwaseun and Akinnuwesi Oluwatimilehin Deborah adds another chapter to Redeemer’s University's record of producing graduates who excel beyond the classroom. Their journey from earning First-Class degrees in Law to attaining the highest level of distinction at the Nigerian Law School highlights the impact of consistent hard work, disciplined preparation and a strong academic foundation, while offering an inspiring example to aspiring legal professionals across Nigeria.
