Youngest Nobel Prize Winner, Malala Gets Admission Into Oxford University

Pakistani education activist Malala Yousafzai, who last month visited Nigeria and held a meeting with acting president Osinbajo, has revealed her excitement at gaining admission to study at the prestigious Oxford University in England.

Malala Yousafzai, now 20, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 when she was just 17 years old, came to prominence when a Taliban gunman shot her in the head in 2012, after she was targeted for her campaign against efforts by the Taliban to deny women education.

After recovering from the Taliban attack, she has attended school in England.

Now, the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize revealed she had been accepted at Oxford to study Politics, Philosophy, and Economics.

“So excited to go to Oxford!! Well done to all A-level students, the hardest year. Best wishes for life ahead!”.

Others to have studied the same course at Oxford, one of the world’s top universities, include former British Prime Minister David Cameron and late Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.
