NSMQ 2026: Saviour SHS lead counts for nothing as Chemu SHTS snatch victory in tiebreaker
One-time semi-finalists Chemu SHTS have pulled off a sharp takeover, snatching the One-Eighth Stage ticket from Saviour SHS in a dramatic tiebreaker finish.
In a dramatic finish to this year's NSMQ, Chemu SHTS emerged victorious, snatching the One-Eighth Stage ticket from Saviour SHS in a tense tiebreaker. Saviour SHS had dominated the contest, leading through Round Three before the final round saw both schools tied on 50 points. The intense competition between the three schools, all scoring a perfect 10/10 in the Problem of the Day, culminated in a thrilling showdown.
Chemu SHTS seized the opportunity to claim the ticket, celebrating their stunning comeback right at the finish line. Saviour SHS, currently third on the list of five runners-up, will advance to the next round but will need to hope no other school posts a higher score. The 2026 NSMQ is produced by Primetime Limited and sponsored by various educational institutions and companies, with the broadcast on JoyNews sponsored by VitaMilk and Chartered Institute of Management Accountants.
