Prempeh College secured the bragging privilege as winners of the 2017 National Science & Maths Quiz after beating reigning champions Adisadel College and St. Thomas Aquinas Senior High School.
The headmaster of Adisadel College, William Kusi-Yeboah represented his school in his outstanding ‘Zebra’ suit which has received divergent views from the public.
The suit made him stand out very well with people mistaking him for a young Santaclausian while others loved his passion for the game.
Mr. William Kusi is also a proud old student of the school.
At the end of the competition, Prempeh College obtained 53pts with St. Thomas Aquinas emerging 2nd with 51pvts, followed by Adisadel College with 31pts.
It was a tight competition as students from the three schools were engaged in a serious mind battle till the end of the final round.
This is Prempeh College’s fourth title, whereas Aquinas won in 2013 and Adisadel winning for the first time in 2016.
Presbyterian Boys School (PRESEC), Legon, remains the school with the highest (5) national titles.
NSMQ Quiz Mistress, Dr. Elsie Effah Kaufmann was spectacular and splendid. The success of the NSMQ 2017 could be ascribed to her stellar leadership on the stage.
