A Nigerian man has captured widespread attention after graduating from Plateau State Polytechnic, Barkin Ladi, on the occasion of his 52nd birthday.
The graduate, who completed his Higher National Diploma (HND), is gaining viral recognition for achieving this academic milestone later in life.
In a brief interview with a content creator in Jos, he was seen celebrating his accomplishment with a joyful dance.
The man used the opportunity to inspire others, particularly those who might feel too old to pursue education.
“I’m very, very excited. I graduated. I wrote my last paper, and today is my birthday. I’m 52. I got my HND at the age of 52. So nobody should feel as if they cannot go to school,” he said.
His achievement serves as an encouraging message to many, proving that age is not a barrier to education or personal growth.
