The school’s Public Relations Officer, Chidinma Unigwe, said that Daniyan has been an outstanding student.
“We are not surprised that Ayomide had an impressive score in the 2023 UTME,” she said in a statement.
“He has been a high-flying student. Last year, he came first in the Senior Mathematics competition organised by Mathematics Association of Nigeria, MAN and also in the Mathematics and Science Olympiad.
“We are glad that the efforts by the school have continued to yield positively in the students. Last year, a Grundtvig student, Samuel Ozumba came third in Nigeria in JAMB’s UTME and we are delighted that this year, we are also leading. With the results we have seen so far about 30 of our students scored above 300 and none scored below 200.”
