“I was able to focus on my studies because I had no boyfriend,” says Wesley University’s best graduating student.

Wesley University’s overall best graduating student for the 2023/2024 academic session, 19-year-old Miss Ifeoluwa Mercy Adeyemi, has shared the secret to her academic success.

Speaking at the university’s 13th convocation ceremony in Ondo Town, Ondo State, Adeyemi, who earned a degree in Microbiology with an impressive 4.97 CGPA, revealed that she avoided having a boyfriend during her four-year course to stay focused and minimise distractions.

According to report, she said: “Well, I had actually discussed this matter with several other people, and they told me that it depends on your own perspective. But for me, I see it as a distraction because I cannot divide my mind.

A boyfriend might be demanding my attention, which would prevent me from putting my total effort into my books.”
