Tobi, daughter of Oyo state governor Seyi Makinde, just graduated from Yale University in the United States.
The governor shared images on social media from the ceremony, accompanied by his wife and family members.
He also complimented his daughter on her new accomplishment, saying that her “hard work and diligence paid off”.
“Congratulations, my darling Tobi on your graduation from Yale University yesterday. Your hard work and diligence paid off,” he wrote.
“Wishing you all the best as you embark on a new chapter of your life and I’m also glad that I have one less school fees to pay.”
This increases the number of children of renowned Nigerians who have graduated from international universities.
