We have 9439 students registered for 2027 South East Maths Olympiad.
At the same time we are giving every child access to our learning materials to love and learn maths.
Registration will close once we hit 150k registrations.
It's FREE for every child who lives or schools in the South East regardless of nationality or tribe.
Senior category winner gets N10 million, Junior Category winner gets N5 million and Primary category winner gets N3 million.
The teachers of the winners will get N3 million each and the winning schools gets N5 million each.
These awards are courtesy of Sterling Bank.
We will be the greatest workforce in Africa in 10 years.
✝️ May we be reminded that our security is found in the God who knows us and loves us completely.
Father God,
Thank you that you know
everything there is to know about me.
Thank you for your amazing unconditional love.
Walk with me through today.
Help me to find my security in you:
the Lord who knows me and loves me.
Amen.
The South East Maths Olympiad revealed something deeper about what is happening in our education system.
Many of our children are intelligent.
In fact, far more intelligent than we imagine.
But most of them have never been pushed to the edge of their thinking.
They have been trained to memorize, to repeat, and to pass exams.
But not to think deeply.
And when a child finally meets a problem that requires real thinking, their first reaction is not excitement.
It is confusion.
They assume the question must be wrong.
That is the silent damage our system has done.
We have unintentionally raised a generation that doubts its own intellectual power.
That is why the South East Maths Olympiad is different.
It is not just a competition but rather it is an awakening.
Across Enugu, Anambra, Imo, Abia and Ebonyi, thousands of students sat down to face problems that forced them to think harder than they ever had before.
Some struggled, some got stuck, and some almost gave up.
But something powerful happened in that process.
They discovered something about themselves.
They discovered that their minds can go further than they thought.
And when you see the finalists now, the students who will stand on that stage during the Grand Finale broadcast live on Afia TV this Saturday, you will realise something important.
These are not just students answering maths questions.
These are young minds discovering confidence.
A girl from Abakaliki who now believes she can become an engineer.
A boy from Onitsha who now sees mathematics as a puzzle to conquer instead of a subject to fear.
A student from Enugu who suddenly realises that brilliance is not something that belongs only to people in other countries.
It belongs to them too.
The South East has always produced extraordinary minds but brilliance does not grow in silence.
It grows when a society challenges its children to think and that is what the South East Maths Olympiad is doing.
It is reminding a generation of children that their minds are powerful, and once a child truly discovers the power of their mind…
You don’t just change their future.
You change the future of an entire society.
Every student, teacher, parent, guardian and supervisors who participated in today's South East Maths Olympiad in all 5 south east states returned home safely.
We recorded zero incident.
Managing 11,522 children is a lot but everything went perfectly.
God is faithful.
Every child who registered regardless of economic background participated in South East Maths Olympiad.
It was 100% computer based and no child felt disadvantaged.
We are solving so many societal problems through mathematics.
UNMUTE Yourself – Session 1 done.
And it landed.
On Saturday 31st January 2026, we launched UNMUTE Yourself – neither as a talk, nor as a webinar, but as a practice space.
The response was powerful.
What stayed with me most was the honesty in the room; people naming where they’ve been muted, where they hesitate, and where they’re ready to speak differently.
UNMUTE Yourself is designed as a 12-month arc.
Each session stands alone – but together, they build something deeper: a real speaking practice, not just moments of inspiration.
We started with Permission to Speak.
Next month we move into Speaking With Clarity.
And from there, the arc stretches across meetings, pressure, authority, resistance, visibility, gravitas – all the places our voices are tested.
The early feedback has been deeply encouraging.
Thoughtful. Reflective. Grounded in real life.
If you attended, I’d love you to share one word or sentence in the comments:
What shifted for you? What stayed with you?
And if this resonates, join and follow along.
This is just the beginning.

UNMUTE Yourself isn’t about volume.
It’s about impact.
I once sat in a room listening to a speaker who was clearly brilliant. A leader in his field. Deep expertise. Serious credentials.
And yet… the room was fading.
People rubbing their eyes.
Attention drifting.
Even the person who invited him struggling to stay engaged.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth:
You can have the content.
You can have the credibility.
You can even have the platform.
And still be muted.
Muting is not silence.
Muting is:
* being technically correct but emotionally absent
* speaking at people instead of to them
* having something important to say, but no one feeling it
* leaving rooms unchanged despite filling them with words
This is why #UNMUTEYourself exists.
Not to make people louder.
Not to turn professionals into performers.
But to help capable people speak with clarity, conviction, and connection – especially when the moment matters.
January was about Permission to Speak.
February goes deeper.
Speaking With Clarity.
Not more words.
Better ones.
If you’ve ever watched your ideas lose the room mid-sentence, this next session is for you.
UNMUTE Yourself – February
Speaking With Clarity
Live. Practical. Safe.
You don’t need a bigger platform.
You need an unmuted voice.
