Granville Chukwure, TEDA Star, To Participate In The International Chemistry Olympiad July 2024

Granville Chukwure, a young prodigy from the Total Education Development Academy in Eke-Owerri, Obingwa LGA, Abia State, plans to travel to Saudi Arabia in July. He will compete in the prestigious International Mathematics and Sciences Olympiad alongside other top students from around the world.

Granville Chukwure won first place in the Nigerian Mathematics and Sciences Olympiad, which took place in April 2024 at the National Mathematical Centre in Abuja.

It landed him an invitation to compete with similar top minds from other countries.

Granville scored 345 marks in the 2024 JAMB examination, leading the charge for Total Education Development Academy.

Granville Chukwure has been working hard at the National Mathematical Centre for a month to prepare for the international competition, with the unwavering support of the Total Education Development Academy.

The competition will take place in Badr Al-Majrathi, Saudi Arabia, from Sunday, July 21 to Tuesday, July 30.

Granville Chukwuere is from Rivers State’s Emohua Local Government, specifically the Ibaa community. He is the son of Samuel Uchechukwu Chukwure.

Chukwure represented Nigeria at the 2023 International Chemistry Olympiad in Zurich, Switzerland. It was a fantastic opportunity for him, his family, the state, and the country.

Nineteen students from TEDA School in rural Eke-Owerri, Obingwa Local Government, Abia State, scored between 250 and 345 points on the 2024 JAMB examination. Their findings confirmed the school’s top-tier standing in the Nigerian educational community.

TEDA has an impressive track record of academic success. In 2023, TEDA will represent Nigeria at Switzerland’s 55th International Chemistry Olympiad. Grandville Chukure, who scored 345 in the 2024 JAMB, represented TEDA and Nigeria in the competition.

TEDA School gladly promotes the excellent performance of its top students. Granville Chukwure, who scored 345 in JAMB and wants to study Medicine and Surgery; Valeria K. Emordi, who scored 296; and Victor Enyinnaya, who scored 288, wants to study Chemical Engineering.

The National Mathematical Centre in Abuja provides the impetus and organisation for Nigeria’s participation in the Olympiad. According to the NMC, one of the National Mathematical Centres (NMC) Abuja’s mandates is to identify and train young talents in the mathematical sciences for them to compete internationally. Nigeria began participating in the International Mathematical Olympiad through the Centre in 2005, initially as an Observer Country and then as a Participant Country in 2006. Nigeria participates in six central international mathematical science Olympiads each year, which are coordinated by the Centre.

“They are the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the International Physics Olympiad (IPhO), the International Informatics Olympiad (IOI), the International Biology Olympiad (IBO), the International Chemistry Olympiad (IChO), and the Pan African Mathematical Olympiad (PAMO).”
Chukwure’s results continue to expand his stakeholder base. They now include the Rivers State government, which many people look to for assistance in this endeavour.
