The
Centre for Human Rights, University of Pretoria on February 3, 2016, introduced
its youngest doctorate graduate, Dr. Romola Adeola. According to the Institute,
at just 26 years of age, Romola has set a record in being the youngest person
to obtain a Doctor of Laws degree (LLD) in the 30-year history of the Centre
for Human Rights.
Furthermore, she is only the second youngest person to achieve
this in the Faculty of Law, University of Pretoria since its establishment 107
years ago. She distinguished herself by completing the LLD in under 3 years.
This record is in
keeping with a pattern of excellence which Romola has maintained since her
undergraduate years at Lagos State University (LASU) where she was awarded the
Taslim Olawale Elias Prize for the Best Student in International Law.
