Nabubie, however, could not write his name and had to return to repeat primary six at the 5th Battalion Primary School in Burma Camp.

Despite all odds, he remained committed to his education and has obtained a PhD!

''Today, through diligent effort, determination, resilience and prayers,[I have] graduated with a PhD in Mathematics and Statistics, specialising in Financial Mathematics, from Curtin University in Australia.

''The journey towards obtaining this PhD has been a profoundly humbling experience,'' a Facebook message read.

He extended a heartfelt gratitude to all those who supported him throughout the endeavour, particularly his wife, Dr Esther Nabubie.

Dr Nabubie studied Computer Iliteracy at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) and subsequently received a Financial Engineering master's degree from Mälardalen University, Sweden.
