Being the first person, living or dead, to make First Class Honors from the Ibadan School of History is by accident, not by design. Well, this question can be best answered by the authorities, especially those at the helm of affairs in the Department of History, University of Ibadan. You know, the Ibadan School of History is renowned as the pre-eminent custodian of African history. Once you talk of African History, you are directly referring to the Ibadan School of History. It is important to point out here that I never learnt of any unbroken record in UI History Department until my graduation in 2016.
