Adisadel College’s 2021 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) lead contestants, Prince Nuakoh and Sylvester Arizie, obtained 8As in the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). Other members of Adisadel’s NSMQ team including Balak Anyan, Eugene Ward, Kirk Amponsah, Kofi Danso, and Daniel Aryeequaye also scored 8As.
For the young Sylvester Arizie, this is another iconic moment in his career, having previously represented Ghana in the International Math Olympiad.
Adisadel College’s contribution to science and technology on a global scale has been remarkable.
