The Search for Lagos best Chemist Kicks off with the PZCCC 2016/2017 Competition.
PZ Cussons Chemistry Challenge Competition (PZCCC) is Nigeria’s number
one physical science contest that is designed to stimulate and inspire
the learning of Chemistry amongst secondary school students.
The Chemistry competition is an initiative of the PZ Cussons Foundation,
and it is powered by two foremost family brands Premier Soap and Nunu
Milk from the stable of PZ Cussons Nigeria.
The 3rd Edition of the Competition was won by 14 year old Anthony Ekene
Ike-Okoro, an SS3 student of Top Grade Secondary School Surulere, Lagos.
He emerged as the overall winner with a total score of 88.8 per cent.
He won a cash prize of N700, 000, a laptop and gold medal, and his
Chemistry teacher Mr John Odinibe Nnnani who is currently preparing and
training his candidates for this year, went home with N100,000.00 while
the school won a trophy and chemistry textbooks worth N100,000.00. In an
interview, Anthony narrated how his elder brother who was the 3rd
runner up at the maiden edition of the competition, encouraged and gave
him the needed motivation to become champion. He also added that a key
driver for him was his love for chemistry and science in general.
The PZCCC that was launched in 2013 as an initiative of the PZ Cussons
Foundation, has won PZ Cussons Nigeria a couple of awards from the LASG
Ministry of Education and reputable Chemistry Associations.
The 4th Edition of the competition is open to Senior Secondary School
students in SS2 class and schooling in Lagos. If you don't qualify for
it, let your younger ones know about this.
This edition of the contest comes with a twist as teachers will also be
competing alongside students. In addition, schools are encouraged to
support girl child education by registering at least one female student.
