Oluwanifise Onafowokan, a student of The Ambassador College, Ota, Ogun State has revealed how long hours of studies and practice have made mathematics an easy subject for her.

Onafowokan, who is participating in the Senior Category of the 2017 Cowbellpedia Secondary Schools Mathematics TV show sponsored by Cowbell, explained that her love for Mathematics started early because of encouragement from her parents.

She said the subject which usually scares most students, comes naturally to her because of her devotion. 

“I love solving Mathematical problems until I get tired.  It has become a part of me. It is fun taking my mathematics textbook and my workbook; it relieves my stress. I just love Mathematics,” she said.

She praised her teacher and the school management for providing a conducive atmosphere for talents to boom among the students.

At the end of the recent preliminary round, Onafowokan and Plangdi Nepele of the Baptist High School, Naraguta in  Jos, Plateau State advanced to the semi-final stage.

Onafowokan and Nepele, who got 95 per cent in the qualifying examinations conducted in March 2017 expressed confidence in their ability to excel in the competition.
