Ekuma Iziogo, the young man caught on video sharing money
and sachet waters to prison inmates in 2022, has earned a degree in Law.
Iziogo became a media sensation after a commuter shared his
video online.
The clip attracted the attention of celebrities like Obi
Cubana, the Nigerian businessman, and on-air personality Daddy Freeze.
In 2022, Iziogo revealed he was admitted into Ebonyi State
University, but he could not afford his school fees.
He said he travelled to Lagos for economic survival.
In a recent Instagram post, Cubana revealed that Iziogo has
graduated with a degree in Law.
Cubana praised Iziogo for choosing to return to school after
their encounter.
The business mogul also appreciated the efforts of others
who helped the young man’s career, adding that “the bigger job is ahead of us”.
“On 19th January 2022, when the offers were placed before
you, you chose education! You made the best choice. Today, you are a 2025 law
graduate!” he wrote.
“You could have chosen to take the money and walk away to a
temporal comfort and live for the moment, but you were wise to choose
education! Today, you have both education and money, and more to come!
“Congratulations, Jerry, the world is yours! Thank you, my
brothers @daddyfreeze @iam_hymans, for being part of this great sacrifice. The
bigger job is ahead of us.”
Iziogo also took to his Instagram page to share his graduation pictures, while thanking
Cubana and other people who supported him.
“Today, a journey that started with little or no hope of
crossing the finish line has come to an amazing end. A raw but naked hope of
becoming a lawyer that I had, “ he wrote.
“How the hope crashed and how I started again, even in a
bigger and better way, through the invaluable support of the good people of
Nigeria.
“A journey not devoid of normal University ups and downs.
Falling and getting up now and then, knowing that I can’t afford to disappoint
the world. It was five years of diverse experiences.
“Today, by the grace of God, the final curtain has been
drawn, and I’m happy y’all walked this part with me. I can’t appreciate your
candid support enough. A true testament of your philanthropy and services to
humanity.”
