A total of 14 secondary schools participated in the fifth edition of this annual competition from group stages to the grand finale with each school represented by Six students. The students were drilled in five core subjects namely; Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics and General Knowledge. “In any country that is emerging like Nigeria, the future is in the hand of the youth. We must mould them while they are young. There is no way we can have a better future without moulding them and that is what Tolaram is spearheading”, Dabiri said.
While commending the organiser on the laudable initiative, Whenu advised the students to be focused and determined in their pursuit of academic excellence noting that the Lagos state government is looking forward to having them play a significant role in the future in the emergence of a greater Lagos and Nigeria as a nation.
He equally expressed delight at the enthusiasm, passion, commitment and keen interest exhibited by the students towards expanding their knowledge through the initiative, urging them to continue to work hard in the pursuit of their dreams.
