There is a false tribal narrative being circulated claiming that we dropped a Yoruba child to replace him with an Igbo child for the International STEM Olympiad in Rome.
That claim is completely false.
This is the full live stream of the 2026 South East Maths Olympiad Grand Finale, where the winners emerged. Our selection process was conducted publicly because we believe transparency is the best way to protect integrity.
We deliberately stream our competitions live so everyone can see how winners are determined. Our goal is simple: ensure that the right children win based on merit, not ethnicity, religion, connections or influence.
We are building a generation that believes hard work is rewarded. Merit is not negotiable.

Nigeria's children deserve better than tribal propaganda. They deserve fairness.
We are at Vatican City.
Our boys and their teachers are having a great experience here.
Any child or teacher, regardless of background, nationality or tribe, can experience this if they win in any category of the South East Maths Olympiad 2027.
U people will cook up anything for engagement.
Fact 1. This wasn't a test from a teacher
Fact 2. Use six words to form a sentence. Means each word per sentence. U DUMBOS. And the men in the comment section acting aloof cuz this post was made by a woman, u are simping olodos. Like Ibi man e post am unna go dey chastise. Have some pride for Pete's sake! She won't suck y'all d!cks!
Celebrating a Life of Faith and Service in the Lord's vineyard
Yesterday, I travelled to Ibadan with Professor Pat Utomi to join family, friends, the clergy, and the faithful in celebrating the remarkable life of His Grace, Archbishop Alaba Job, on the occasion of his 88th birthday, 60 years of priestly ordination, and 55years of episcopal ordination.
The celebration reflects a lifetime devoted to God, selfless service, peace, justice, and the upliftment of humanity. His inspiring example reminds us that true leadership is measured by sacrifice, integrity, compassion, and a commitment to serving others. At a time when our nation yearns for principled and selfless leadership, His Grace’s life remains a beacon of hope and an enduring testament to what it truly means to serve God and humanity.
I congratulate His Grace, and pray that God Almighty continues to bless him with good health, wisdom and strength as he remains a source of inspiration to the church and our nation.
After the celebration, we passed through one of the secondary schools Professor Utomi attended, Loyola College, Ibadan, and within there we saw an INEC voter registration exercise going on, and we stopped. We used that occasion to thank those registering, and appeal to those who haven't to do so before the closing date.
We encouraged them to remain committed to the democratic process, and reminded them that voter registration is the first step towards building the New Nigeria we all desire. We told them that every registered voter represents hope for a nation where leadership is driven by competence, character, compassion, and a commitment to the common good.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Alhamdulillah, I have arrived in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia today.
Looking forward to a spiritually uplifting and inspiring Umrah.
May Almighty Allah bless our beloved country with lasting peace, prosperity, and unity. Ameen. - RMK
