A heartwarming tale of enduring friendship has emerged from the University of Benin (UNIBEN), as a group of former students from the Computer Science Class of '98 recently recreated a photograph initially taken 28 years ago during their undergraduate days.

The nostalgic moment was brought to public attention by Tuokpe Onuwaje, who shared both the original and the newly recreated images on her Facebook page. Her post captured the essence of their long-standing bond, stating:

"1998 vs. 2026! 28 years between these two pictures, but over 30 years of friendship! From the classrooms of the University of Benin (UNIBEN), Computer Science Class of ’98, to recreating this priceless memory at Evelyn 50th birthday celebration! Who would have thought that all these years later, we’d still be making memories together? Different years, different locations, same beautiful people!
