Nollywood actress Jemima Osunde has celebrated a major academic milestone as she bagged her third degree, a Master of Science in Public Health, from a UK university.
The actress shared the exciting news on Instagram, posting graduation photos alongside a light-hearted caption that read:
“Stay warm guys, I hear it’s 3 degrees outside. Of course I had to use a cheeky caption. A Master of Science in Public Health. My 3rd degree. Forever doing side quests.”
Jemima, who balances an acting career with her medical profession, explained her motivation for pursuing further education.
“Why do I chase academic qualifications and a career in healthcare even with my existing career in entertainment? My simple answer is — why not? I’ve always lived the best of both worlds. I combined the College of Medicine, Idi Araba, with a budding acting career. I worked full-time in LUTH for a year while still acting, and now I’ve completed my master’s in public health while still being in your faces. Why have one when I can have two? I want it all.”
She playfully added that one of her personal motivations was so she could proudly tell her future children, “Mummy has two heads.” Concluding her post, Jemima expressed pride and gratitude, writing:
“VERY proud of myself. Shout out to my friends and family. Shout out to the team that got me ready for my grad.”
