Anambra governor’s wife, Mrs Nonye Soludo, has offered a full-time scholarship to Master Chukwuemeka Nwuzor, the eight-year-old mathematics genius who was captured in a viral video some time ago.
Mrs Soludo, who announced the award on Wednesday after meeting the boy and his family, said that the scholarship is for the child’s complete education in the best schools, from primary to any level he wants to attain in life.
The Nigerian Tribune gathered that Nwuzor was seen in a video that has now gone viral, giving correct answers to different mathematical questions, including solving advanced formulas and numerical equations.
Learning that the boy in the video was from Anambra State, Nibo, in the Awka South Local Government Area of the state, to be precise, Mrs. Soludo immediately launched a search and soon found his family.
On invitation at the Governor’s Lodge, Amawbia, the governor’s wife sat with the boy, his dad, and his younger brother.
To be sure, she brought a calculator close and threw different questions on formulas, equations, and structures to him, which he answered all correctly.
The governor’s wife then announced that she would sponsor the boy’s education from his present primary class to any level of his choice and also build mentorship around him to help him reach his full potential.
She noted that Chukwuemeka’s breed is rare among mankind and pledged to give him all the support that he needs to grow.
The Anambra first lady also advised the parents not to put him under pressure by forcing him up in classes but instead to allow him to walk at a pace that grows his talent.
