I refused to be ordinary — UNIBEN first-class Law graduate

Hannah Kintum, a 21-year-old from Cross River State, proudly declared herself the first-class Law graduate of the University of Benin. She credited her academic success to discipline, consistency, and sacrifice. Born into a family of seven, Hannah was not academically driven in her early years but later realised she could achieve more.

She excelled in secondary school and gained admission to UNIBEN in 2021, studying Law. Despite the demands of the course, Hannah maintained a first-class CGPA of 4.69 throughout her university years. She attributed her success to her passion for standing out, extensive weekend study sessions, and the support of her parents and school.
