Two Nigerian sisters from Corby, United Kingdom, Stephanie and Isabel Offor, have celebrated a remarkable academic feat after graduating with First Class Honours in the same academic year.
The Northamptonshire Telegraph reported on Wednesday that Stephanie studied mechanical engineering at the University of Leicester, while Isabel graduated from Nottingham Trent University’s Faculty of Law and Business, with both sisters achieving First Class Honours.
According to the report, “Their achievement has become more than a family celebration. It is a moment that reflects the hopes of church families, cultural groups and wider communities in both Nigeria and the UK that watched them grow.”
Stephanie had earlier won the Goldsmith Prize 2025 in recognition of the excellent work she completed during her placement year.
