Nollywood actor Muyideen Oladapo has set his sight on more academic achievements after bagging his Master’s degree from the University of Lagos.
Popularly known as Lala in the Yoruba film circle, Oladapo hardly cuts a bookish figure. But his desire for more education has been a life-long dream, he said.
“I am not relenting because I want to attain the highest level of education,” Oladapo said on his Instagram page.
“I am grateful to God for the success of my second-degree education. It took me concerted effort in achieving this because there were lots of distractions.”
Oladapo got his first degree in Dramatic Arts from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife in 2015. The actor said his latest degree is just a “stepping stone” for him.
“I have always had a burning passion for attaining a greater height in education from my tender age and I thank God I achieved the dream despite fame and other engagements.”
