NSMQ 2026: Asanteman SHS books one-eighth spot as Senya SHS’s 2nd bid ends in heartbreak

MyJoyOnline Ghana reports that Asanteman Senior High School has secured a spot in the 2026 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) One-Eighth Stage, having triumphed in the main event against Senya Senior High School and Awe Senior High Technical School. The school secured three major awards, including the NSMQ Star Award, Clean Sheet Award, and Pepsodent Highest Scorer of the Day Award.

In contrast, Senya SHS's second attempt to reach the One-Eighth Stage ended in disappointment, as they fell behind Asanteman's dominance, particularly in the Speed Race and Riddle Round. The 2026 NSMQ is produced by Primetime Limited and sponsored by the Ghana Education Service, with support from Goil PLC, Prudential Life Insurance, and Pepsodent.
