Law student graduates and marries on the same day

Meet Anu Yusuf, a Nigerian-born Law graduate who received her Law LLB in a ceremony at Symphony Hall on Wednesday 27 July, and got married few hours later on that same day.
She met her husband, Joseph Kolawole Ola, in 2012, while they were both serving in Gombe State. She later left for UK to study further, and four years after, she got married to her husband on her graduation day!


She said:
“My husband often joked that he would whisk me away after my graduation to marry me because he can no longer wait. So, we decided to marry on my actual graduation day!

“Romance aside, it certainly worked well logistically too, as it meant that our relatives only had to travel once for both occasions. We both have family all over the UK and we were conscious of taking up too much of their time and for all the added expense of making the same journey twice.”
