Man gets his PhD at 65 to fulfil promise he made to his daughter

A medical doctor has gone on Twitter to praise her father after he got his Ph.D. to fulfill a promise he made to her.

Dr. Maria Uloko, who became a medical doctor at 23, said her father promised her then that he will go back to school and earn his doctorate so that she wouldn’t be the only ”doctor” in the family.

He kept his words and earned his Ph.D. in December. At his oral defense, he said he went back to school to fulfill his promise to his daughter.
