NOUN ALUMNUS BAGS DISTINCTION FROM UNILAG 

A National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) alumnus, Matthew Ogunsuada, has graduated with Distinction from the University of Lagos (UNILAG) after completing a Master of Science degree in Mass Communication.

Mr. Ogunsuada emerged as the Best Graduating Student for the 2023/2024 MSc Mass Communication set.

He earned a Second-Class Upper degree from the National Open University of Nigeria in 2023 before enrolling at the University of Lagos in pursuit of a more rigorous and conventional academic experience.

A broadcast journalist with Voice of the People Television (VOP TV), Ogunsuada hosts the education-focused programme Edu-Dialogue, while also working as a reporter, producer, and broadcast content developer.

An orphan who lost his mother at the age of seven and his father at sixteen, Ogunsuada’s academic and professional journey has been shaped by determination and grit.

He described the achievement as a testament to his faith, resilience, and perseverance against the odds.

He said his education at NOUN gave him the exposure that enabled him to begin his broadcasting career with Celestial Honours Television, before moving to Voice of the People Television, where he further developed his skills while studying.

During his time at NOUN, Ogunsuada also enrolled for the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations (NIPR) professional examinations, which he passed, earning him the status of an Associate Member.

He also completed courses at the National Broadcast Academy, became a member of the Institute of Corporate and Public Sector Professionals (ICPSP), and obtained certification from the Advertising Regulatory Council of Nigeria (ARCON), among other professional qualifications.
