2017 NSMQ: "Congratulations To Prempeh College . . . Favourites From Start" – Akufo-Addo

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has expressed his enjoy at the just ended keenly contested 2017 edition of the National Science and Maths (NSMQ) Quiz.

After congratulating the three finalists on a picture he posted to his verified Instagram page, President Nana Addo noted that the winners were his preferred choice at the finals which was held yesterday.

“Congratulations to Prempeh College for winning #NSMQ2017. Favourites from the start, they justified that tag at the end of the contest. Better luck next time to the other schools,” the Kinbu old student posted. 

Prempeh College emerged the winners of the 2017 edition of the National Science and Maths (NSMQ) quiz for the fourth time – they won it first in 1994, then 1996, before the last in 2015.

The 22nd edition of the competition saw 135 Senior High Schools competing from the beginning.

However the grand final was keenly contested between defending champions Adisadel College, 2013 winners St. Thomas Aquinas and three time champions Prempeh College.

The euphoria of this year’s contest took a different level with old students and supporters of the three finalists bombarding social media with live pictures and comical ones from the venue, National Theater.
