I really admire very intelligent and exposed little kids like these they are products of intentional parenting back then when I was still a kid I was extremely very shy and timid wasn't even bold enough to withstand and address any croud wether in my schools or outside.

He should go rest. There are other kids like him. Some are way more intelligent than him but lack opportunities. At his age i was already writing my macro assembler for the motorola chipset, memorized hexadecimal and i can do differentials and polynamials without using a calcuator.
What do we call this? Jealousy or what? What has the boy done wrong to deserve this reaction from you? Or maybe you're angry because he's from the Igbo tribe? Some of you can take tribalism to a level where one begins to question your intelligence!

Congratulations to the prodigy! May he continue to soar higher and higher in the world of STEM and in all other aspects of life..Amen

I get your point and I can relate. I believe you have participated in something similar for you to know this much.

Lolz, you are still assuming. i wish you'd research and find out so that next time you don't exaggerate.
i explained the process to show you events like these are not necessarily best of the best that you claimed or world best. It's a glorified excursion.
If you watched the video, you'll hear one of the boys saying he slept off. The other one didn't expect it. Point is in most cases, they all get awarded. You've got to be extremely dull not to get a gold, silver or bronze. At worse, you'll get a shiny certificate and participation badge. We know the system, been there done that.
Not saying anything is wrong with the system, just educating you to not exaggerate it, calling them the most Intelligent Mathematicians on the Planet Under the age of 15, the best mathematician in the world. Some people have already used it to talk down on Nigeria, or government or tribes. SMH

He should go rest. There are other kids like him. Some are way more intelligent than him but lack opportunities. At his age i was already writing my macro assembler for the motorola chipset, memorized hexadecimal and i can do differentials and polynamials without using a calcuator.
So which work you come dey do now?

Why are so many people on this forum full of bile and hatred even for a child? Ahhhn. Is the situation with you guys so bad you have to troll on a child?
If you have nothing good to say to the kid just read and get lost to your miserable lives than spreading your bile everywhere.


Abeg congratulations to you dear boy. May you go far.

Some people have generational hatred ingrained in them by their parents. They do not realize they can never go far in life with that wicked mindset. Hausa, igbo, yoruba or any other tribes just congratulate and take a walk.

What kinds of adult do we have in Nigeria for God's sake? Let your achievements speak for you just like this kid's achievement is speaking for him and stop being a hater. Mtcheeew

I'm disappointed reading some comments.

I like the boy's confidence answering questions. It will take him far.

[b]What are you saying man?
They are indeed olympiad winners.
The competition they won is the International STEM Olympiad (ISO) Global Finals 2026.

You dodged my questions. i never said that they are not winners, i said you are exaggerating. They didn't win WORLD best mathematician.
Olympiads don't usually bring the best of the best. They gather registered students whose parents or school can sponsor. You can carry last in your class and still register for many Olympiads and get medals. This is reality. Look for people who have the experience please. If you don't have money or your parents don't want, no Olympiads for you.
Again, congratulations to every winner, but don't exaggerate what happened.
You are absolutely right but don’t expect many people to understand you, Nigerians throw logic out of the window and embrace emotion or comfortable lies when it comes to something like this.

To add to that, the apex mathematics competition for Pre-Uni kids is the International Mathematical Olympiad and not the whichever one these kids have attended, of course this takes nothing away from the excellent feat these kids have achieved.

For the main one, Nigeria or no Nigerian has ever won a gold medal, you’d have kids from China, Canada, US, Iran, Poland, Russia dominating.

We don’t have to lie or sensationalise to appreciate these kids.

Please stop misleading people. This is just an olympiad like hundreds of others. It doesn't make anyone the world best mathematician in the world. Cure yourself of ignorance and overhype.
Comment filled with bitterness against a child.

Na pesin wet contest go win world best. Someone currently has the title for world's strongest man. That doesn't mean he is, but he contested.

Also someone holds the title for most beautiful girl in Nigeria.

You're not even ashamed that your country was downgraded to observer status under the political party you support. And this recognition is courtesy of a private citizen's financial commitment. Shame on you.

Shame on you again. Bitter souls.
