Doyle announced her degree by sharing photos of herself adorning an academic gown. She captioned the post “I have envisaged many things for myself and having put, and still putting in the work, I have a healthy expectation of receiving ‘accolades.’ But at no point did I see this coming. Mommy would have been mighty proud! Dr Doyle has a nice ring to it! #iscg_university I am highly honoured. Thank you!”

In another post, she shared pictures from the occasion alongside colleague, the Special Adviser on Entertainment, Tourism, and Media of Anambra state, Bob-Manuel Obidimma Udokwu, also congratulating him on his degree.
She wrote “Congratulations also to my senior colleague Dr. #bobmanueludokwuofficial. Incidentally, he mentioned that ‘Living In Bondage,’ the movie that redefined and birthed the Nollywood we now have; was 30 years old to the day. We’ve come a mighty long way!”
Doyle and Udokwu joins the likes of Helen Paul and other Nollywood stars who hold doctorate degrees.
