God bless u bro

Amen

naturalwaves:

Thank you bro. Had to take my time to come up with the write- up so we can shift focus to something more sensible. It is even possible to have a reality show for smart children where they will be in the house and they will garner followership as well. Something like a Summer school challenge but useless stuffs and immorality is now the order of the day.

I even observe that a bulk of Nigerian youths are now so useless. 80%+ of them smoke cannabis and Marijuana and do so much alcohol. Young irresponsible parents with no clue on how to raise a child are springing up. They give birth to children they cannot take care of and then pour them on the government. It is such a shame! Whereas, parents and teachers of these young ones are putting in enormous effort to guide and gaurd their future well. I remember the ever gentle, smiling, Ayodeji Akinkuowo from Ondo state who is now studying Aeronautics Engineering in Russia on scholarship based on his performance at the show when he won in 2015. Munachin Earnest-Eze is having a shot at MIT as well and so many others.

See the 60 seconds of fame of Ayodeji here and how he blazed the questions.

Aeronautics was always in my mouth as a kid... But schools here ain't offering that...had to veer of a bit.

Baba God...am still very young...
Help me play on the Global scene too

Yeah right but it won't be a walk in the park. The advantage he has is that he is always very calm. Joel Ndoh is usually a bit nervous. [/quotel]
How does one get to know the past winners.The website,pls...

I remember Ayodeji, Munachiso. Those two were perfect and confident.


The fastest in the 60 seconds of fame with many answers is still Emmanuel.

Try and Google Emmanuel 60 seconds of fame in cowbellpedia and see for your self.

Let me view this Jessey of a guy.

Emmanuel Mebude is now at the University of Lagos where he is studying Systems Engineering.

I almost wept when he did not make the finals. He missed just 1 question in the objective section of the semi final and scored 55/60. 3 of the other contestant scored 60/60.So,they advanced to the 60 seconds of fame while he bowed out. Had he made the finals, Munachi would have it so hot. These kids are just too good. All of them!

Game on!

This is an example of a show we should promote and even preach about.

You will realize your dreams.

They are gift to their family and the world at large.

Nice one

More competitions like this need to be encouraged

JubrinElSudan:
I will gladly sponsor shows like this if I have the money. Note the condition "IF" in that sentence oh

Please use "when"
Be positive

nams77:
Father in heaven, grant my kids this kind of brilliance. In Jesus name,amen.


On the other hand, its a shame that things like this are not getting the needed attention. I am just angry. And they wonder why most of the youths behave the way they do. I dont watch that bbn shi*t and you dare not put it on in my house.
Nonsense program

Naturalwaves, thanks for posting this here. Its like a breath of fresh air. It good to know that there are still students who aspire and strive for academic excellence.
The mods like lalastilala, seun will only move if it is a snake or dog thread. Smh

It not about personal brilliance it more about the level and standard of education they have received since the day they were born. Did you see the names of those schools.. Those are reputable school.. You hardly find children from government schools in these competitions. If you want your child to be brilliant lay the proper foundation for them

Great show.

How I wish Zain African challenge can make a come back.

naturalwaves:

I dislike the quota system thing so bad. One of my boys in Lagos scored 81% in the national exams for the junior category and will not be going for the quiz show because he was not top 17 nationwide and did not emerge as a state champion but about 10 or more people that got far lower than him will make the quiz show. You need to see the terrible scores they had..... Those who scored 60% and less from the North even made it whereas, if you score 90% in Lagos, you may not make it.
See some here that made the Senior category despite low scores.

This is evil!

which channel and what time, please?

nams77:

This is evil!

NNPC uses same quota system for recruitment. If you score 85% and you are from SW, you may not smell the next stage whereas, another person from the North may get 50% and go on to the next stage.

Check the 2nd post from the bottom on page 1 and you will see the details there. The specific time slots for the local stations have not been stated yet. So, it is better you follow from YouTube if you do not want to miss any episode.

To some extent you might be right. But the school alone does not confer intelligence on an individual. There are many dull students in top notched school.

Though i won't deny that the class of school also has a role to play. In all sha, na to hustle hard o. I don already start, na just for God to continue go the increase him pikin so that we can continue with the standard of education

I'm not this smart but I need kids this hot. Baba God answer my prayer and give me better husband wey sabi book wella and has lots of money too

There are some select schools that do well in this competition over the years.

Wise would-be parents should take note of those schools.

Graceland college Port Harcourt.

Ambassadors College Ota (The Osewa school )
And a few others.

They perform very strongly every year. Their teachers must be top notch.

bamirotola:
You no ft see aboki for D's kind tin

Do not overate an aboki o. When you meet the intelligent ones, they are genius to the core. It was an aboki in my secondary school that first made us believe that you can get 100 in JAMB maths as he got it in his set. So every maths guy in every set was now targeting 100 in Jamb maths since somebody has proven that it is possible. One aboki in my set then, if his classmates in his class want to beat him to the first position, they tactically force him to read for 45 minutes during prep when preparing for exams. Na just 20-30 minutes the guy dey read during prep and he go scatter the exam.

As a teacher that has taught in both classes of schools, I can tell you that the kind of school one attends plays a major role in shaping an individual. If an extremely brilliant child in a Public school is taken to a good school, he will turn to a winch. If an average child in a government school is taken to a far better school, he will turn to a brilliant child. Some government schools are still standard by the way but the gap is much my brother.

I love things like this. I can sponsor the program with 100k really. I live in my parents house with no intentions of moving out, I have nothing to do with money aside food, I'm not married, still contemplating and I earn enough to be very cool.

outstanding calculative and innovative children from dedicated parents

Naturalwaves, list the schools that have consistently performed over the years.

It could help parents make informed choices.

This is the reason Nigeria will remain stagnat.The best brains are not getting to the top.Dont be shocked in the future if those with these low scores will be made minister supervising those with high scores in a ministry.

Big big money school.

When I served in ota, I met with the proprietor of ambassadors college, ota.
He told me jokingly that he does not want parents from ota because they can't pay school fees.

Good education is an expensive investment.
