Aminat, who hails from Edo State was recently announced as the best law graduating student during the 26th convocation and the 40th anniversary of the institution.

In a tweet on his official handle, Obaseki announced automatic employment for Aminat into the state’s public service and a full scholarship for one year in the Nigerian Law School.

According to the governor, Aminat will receive an upkeep allowance equivalent to the salary of a State Counsel, which is about N200,000.

He also assured that “As a government, we will continue to recognise excellence and reward our sons and daughters who bring pride to the state.”

Recall that last week, the Lagos governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, rewarded Aminat with a sum of N10 million at the convocation ceremony.

Sanwo-Olu announced a personal donation of N5 million and another N5 million from the Lagos State government for Yusuf who set a 40-year-old record at LASU.

Her feat did not go unnoticed as a Lagos monarch, the Oniba of Iba Kingdom, Oba Sulaimon Adeshina Raji gave her N2 million and promised her full sponsorship through Law School.
