Nigerian actress and medical professional Jemima Osunde has completed her Master of Science in Public Health from a university in the United Kingdom, marking her third academic degree.
Sharing a video from her graduation on social media, Osunde wrote, “Stay warm guys, I hear it’s 3 degrees outside 🥶. Of course I had to use a cheeky caption 🤣😂😂😂🤭. A Master of Science in Public Health. My 3rd degree. Forever doing side quests.”
The 29-year-old explained why she continues to pursue academics alongside her entertainment career, saying, “Why do I chase academic qualifications and a career in health care even with my existing career in entertainment? My simple answer is why not? I’ve always lived the best of both worlds. I combined the College of Medicine Idi Araba with a budding acting career. Combined working full time for a year in LUTH while still maintaining a career and now, I have completed my masters in public health while still being in your faces😜🥰❤️. Why have one when I CAN have two? I want it all.”

She expressed pride in her accomplishment, writing, “VERY proud of myself. Shout out to my friends and family. Shout out to the team that got me ready for my grad ❤️.”
