All African countries stood still for Oluwaseun Alamu when he emerged best science student in Africa during UNICEF World Science Day 2012 competition.

Seun, 16 who represented Rainbow College, Ogun State, came first in Africa and was awarded a trophy and certificate for excellence. With this feat, he has made a bold statement that Nigeria and Africa are no longer the dark country and continent but that if given the right opportunity, we can be the best.

In the UNICEF World Science contest, Rainbow College succeeded in writing Nigeria’s name in the world book of records having produced the Third Best Science School in the world, Best Science School in Africa, Best Science Student in Africa and 38 ruby awards/certificates.

By this achievement, high priority is now placed on African education as the breakthrough has enabled Africa take its pride of place in the world. More importantly, the world is now forced to recognise Africa in the rating of world schools.

The online competition which took place within 24 hours on March 8, 2012, requires a knowledge of facts, quick thinking and Information Communication Technology (ICT) readiness. It covers three key curricular areas which include: Mathematics, Science and spelling in English Language.

diesel86: Its intresting to note that this feat is being seen to have been achieved by a nigerian, not by a particular ethicity. I hope we all start appreciating that the outside world would always tag our activities either good or bad to have been achieved by a nigerian, not igbo,hausa,yoruba e.t.c.

Opoki: I'm sure there wouldn't be much comment and media (Western Media) will not broadcast it but we would have seen many comments/headlines on both local and intl tv stations hadn't been the news is about suicide bombing, kidnapping, NURTW clash, drug baron busted and d like.
Its high time we shun Tribalism. We all are Nigerians Whether we like it or not untill d country ceased to exist!
