2021 NSMQ competition: Prempeh College becomes champion

Prempeh College has won the 2021 edition of the National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) competition.

The school grabbed its fifth title after beating six-time winners Presec Legon from Accra and first time-finalist Keta Senior High Technical School from the Volta Region.

The coveted NSMQ trophy was being contested by these three top schools including title-defenders Presbyterian Boys’ SHS (PRESEC), Legon.

Prempeh College emerged winners after grabbing 53 points beating their contenders, Presec Legon, who had 49 points and Keta Senior High and Technical school who managed just 30 points after five rounds of intense questions and answers.

It was a fierce battle between PRESEC and Prempeh during the contest in the second round as Ketasco failed to answer a single question in the second round of the contest.

Meanwhile, former president John Kuffuor has taken to his Twitter page to congratulate the Amanfoo boys.

The competition was hosted at the KNUST campus in Kumasi for the first time.
