Nollywood Joyous As Veteran Actor Van Vicker Gets Master’s Degree
Van Vicker has taken to social media to celebrate his latest achievement; a Master’s Degree which was delayed because he did not have the financial resources at the time he first got admission in 1997.
Van Vicker wrote “21 years later, here I stand before you with 3 achievements during my graduation; to God be the Glory. 1. 1st Class Honors; 2. Best Student in Strategic Communication; 3. Best Communication Student Award. The above is within the context of my 2021 post on social media and is in no way presumptuous but uprightly to inspire- I could not enroll at a Tertiary Institution in 1997 because my single mother did not have the funds. If free SHS was available back in the day, most likely I would have graduated in 2000/2001…”
Van Vicker wrote, “My career took off and I have been blessed but as someone who relishes education, getting that degree was just a matter of time. I complete my Master’s program this December and I am sorely motivated and committed to go even beyond, God willing”.
Appreciation towards his supporters was not left out as Van Vicker wrote “I thank all those who supported me and is supporting me during this journey”.
Nollywood celebrities including Yvonne Nelson, Kate Henshaw, Angela Okorie, and Stella Damasus, Halima Abubakar amongst others wrote congratulatory messages to Van Vicker in the comment section of Instagram. His followers were not left out as they also congratulated him.
