Activist Malala Yousafzai graduates from Oxford University

The celebrated activist Malala Yousafzai has completed her degree at the University of Oxford.

The 22-year-old posted a photo of herself covered in colourful squares and what looks like cream cake in a celebratory post early this morning.

The youngest ever Nobel Prize laureate also shared a snap of her and her family posing with balloons and a large cake which reads: “Happy graduation Malala.”

She wrote: “Hard to express my joy and gratitude right now as I completed my Philosophy, Politics and Economics degree at Oxford.

“I don’t know what’s ahead. For now, it will be Netflix, reading and sleep.”
