    "I'm super proud and I want you to go out there, have fun and kill it. Be the best you that you can be because you truly deserve it." That's the message for our Class of 2022 from #Kent alumni and afrobeat superstar @TiwaSavage. #KentGrads #MadeInKent

    Gbenga Oduntan from @KentLawSchool remembers Tiwa from her time at Kent. He said: "As a long time staff member, I do remember Tiwa as a student. Quiet, unassuming and mostly to be spotted around the library. Little did everyone on campus know we were incubating a star." 1/2

    He adds: "Tiwa has taken Africa and indeed the world by storm in Afrobeats, R&B, pop, hip hop and soul. She is an enduring star. Tiwa proves that continuous hard work at Uni and in the outside world pays. I doff my hat to Dr. Savage."
