Like father, like daughter… Abati’s daughter graduates with First Class

Elizabeth Abati, daughter of Reuben Abati, spokesman of former President Goodluck Jonathan, on Tuesday graduated with a distinction in Law from the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom.

Elizabeth’s father achieved the feat at the University of Calabar, 31 years ago.

Back in 1985, Abati was recipient of the vice chancellor’s prize for the student with the best overall academic performance in the graduating class.

The seasoned columnist was so excited about his daughter’s achievement that he took to social media to share the good news.

“Elizabeth Abati graduating from University of Bristol, Class of 2016, with a FIRST CLASS Honours in LAW. #Congratulations, Bebe,” he wrote.
