A man receives many degrees with first-class honors from an Indian institution twelve years after being turned away from Nigeria.
AFRICA | At Sharda University in India, a bright Nigerian guy named Shuaib Ibrahim has overcome all obstacles to attain extraordinary academic excellence.
Twelve years ago, Ibrahim was turned down for entrance to a Nigerian institution, but he persisted and eventually earned a PhD, a master’s degree, and a bachelor’s degree with honors.
Ibrahim’s path is made even more remarkable by the fact that he was given a partial scholarship in appreciation of his academic achievement, which allowed him to complete both his graduate and doctoral degrees.
His relative Mallam Mohammed Shuaib highlighted his academic achievement on X (previously Twitter), detailing his remarkable path from bachelor’s to doctorate in India.
Mohammed described how, while residing in India, he first learned about Sharda University from a newspaper ad. He asked the Nigerian High Commission in Delhi about the university out of curiosity, and they confirmed that Nigerian students are welcome there.
We were unable to get him admitted to a Nigerian university in 2013. I saw the Sharada University advertisement in a newspaper while I was in India that year. “It is among India’s largest private universities,” he stated.
In order to learn whether Sharda accepts Nigerian students, he continued by speaking with a representative of the Nigerian High Commission in Delhi. Thankfully, Ibrahim met all the requirements and was admitted when it was validated.

Ibrahim enrolled in Sharda University’s Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) program upon admission, graduating with first-class honors. He received a 50% tuition discount to pursue an MBA because of his exceptional academic performance.
He completed his MBA degree with first-class honors once more, determined to continue his academic success, and was given another 50% scholarship by Sharda University to pursue a PhD.
With his dissertation, “Digital Value Chain and Organizational Productivity: A Study of Selected Automobile Companies in Delhi NCR,” Dr. Ibrahim has now earned his PhD. His study examined the effects of digital transformation on the productivity and efficiency of India’s automotive industry, offering insightful information to the sector.
Dr. Hari Shankar Shyam, Ibrahim’s academic advisor, was extremely proud of his accomplishments and emphasized his commitment and intelligence throughout his academic career.
“I am so proud and happy to announce that my international scholar, Dr. Ibrahim Shuaib from Nigeria, has received his Ph.D.! “This journey has been nothing short of inspiring,” Dr. Hari stated, having coached him for more than ten years, from BBA to MBA and now Ph.D.
Dr. Hari went on to commend his extraordinary intelligence, tenacity, and commitment to his academic and professional endeavors.
He continued, “I have no doubt that he will achieve remarkable milestones in his career ahead, and his intellectual curiosity and unwavering commitment to learning have set him apart.”
