The Smartest Family In Britain Is Black And, - Wait For It- NIGERIAN !! by MrAladin: 11:41pm On Mar 05, 2013
Check this out... Its A-M-A-Z-I-N-
G but its true, the Smartest
Family in Britain is Black and, -
wait for it- NIGERIAN !!
This evening on Hardfacts we
intend to focus on this good
news as against the usual bad
news we always hear about
our country and countrymen.
Read the amazing story below
and share your thoughts
--------------- ---------------
--------------- --------------- ---
Peter and Paula Imafidon, 9-
year-old twins living at
Waltham Forest in northeast
London , are a part of the
highest-achievi ng family in
the history of Great Britain
education.
The two youngest siblings are
about to make British history
as the youngest students to
ever enter high school. They
astounded veteran experts of
academia when they became
the youngest to ever pass the
University of Cambridge ’s
advanced mathematics exam.
That’s on top of the fact they
have set world records when
they passed the A/AS-level
math papers.
Chris Imafidon, their father,
said he’s not concerned about
his youngest children’s ability
to adapt to secondary school
despite their tender age.
To Peter and Paula’s parents,
this is nothing new. Chris
Imafidon and his wife have
been through this before: they
have other super-gifted,
overachieving children.
Peter and Paula’s sister, Anne-
Marie, now 20, holds the world
record as the youngest girl to
pass the A-level computing,
when she was just 13.
She is now studying at
arguably the most renowned
medical school in the United
States , Johns Hopkins
University , in Baltimore .
Another sister, Christina, 17, is
the youngest student to ever
get accepted and study at an
undergraduate institution at
any British university at the
tender age of 11.
And Samantha, now age 12,
had passed two rigorous high
school-level mathematics and
statistics exams at the age of 6,
something that her twin
siblings, Peter and Paula, also
did.
Chris Imafidon migrated to
London from Nigeria in West
Africa over 30 years ago. And
despite his children’s jaw-
dropping, history-making
academic achievements, he
denies there is some “genius
gene” in his family. Instead, he
credits his children’s success to
the Excellence in Education
program for disadvantaged
inner-city children.
“Every child is a genius,” he
told British reporters.
“Once you identify the talent of
a child and put them in the
environment that will nurture
that talent, then the sky is the
limit. Look at Tiger Woods or
the Williams sisters [Venus and
Serena] — they were nurtured.
You can never rule anything
out with them. The
competition between the two
of them makes them excel in
anything they do.”
