Historic Breakthrough as Nigeria Wins Four Medals at 2026 Pan-African Mathematics Olympiad
1 / 4
Nigeria returned from Yamoussoukro with three silver medals and one bronze—the country’s best showing at the Pan-African Mathematics Olympiad in 20 years. This year’s competition brought together top secondary school mathematicians from over 25 African nations. Students tackled two rigorous exam papers, each with three proof-based problems, over two days. The achievement is especially notable as two Nigerian girls won silver medals for the first time in the nation’s PAMO history. Their success marks a milestone for young female mathematicians across the country.
