Students protest as Zimbabwe's First Lady acquires PhD in 2 Months; Obj Enrols For Same At NOUN

If you're a student reading this,and you're not fazed by this news you will probably never going to appreciate your long suffering lecturers let alone further up to PhD level in your educational pursuit. Something is buzzing in the worldwide media right now about
Zimbabweans First Lady.

The First Lady of Zimbabwe, Grace
Mugabe, seems to be drawing attention from everywhere on her
recently acquired PhD.

But what's the big deal you would wonder? Grace,who is now dubbed 'DisGraced', was awarded a PhD in Sociology after two months of enrollment into the University of Zimbabwe.

President Robert Mugabe, her
husband, who happened to be the
chancellor of the university capped
his 'hard working 'wife on her graduation last week. This would go on to add on her academic list having completed her first degree in Chinese language in 2011.

According to the state owned Herald Newspaper, her thesis was on the changing social structure and functions of the family which involved a study in a children's home.

Many Zimbabweans, especially the
university students, seemed who have recently acquired a degree of outrage on social media but what can you do? Unless you're one of the Mugabe's,or as 'brilliant' as her Excelleay your books will be your 'spouse' till you graduate.

Meanwhile,Nigeria former President Olusegun Obasanjo has enrolled for a Master of Arts (MA) and PhD
degrees at the National Open
University of Nigeria (NOUN). He
registered to study Christian Theology in the School of Arts
and Social Sciences.

We're not sure if Baba has not been irked by Mrs Mugabe's achievement and now hopes to outshine her,for he rarely swallows such feminist challenge. But you can count on me to bring you whatever may turn out from this interesting academic competitiveness.
