According to a statement released on Wednesday by presidential spokesperson Bayo Onanuga, the President commended Nafisa Abdullahi Aminu, Rukayya Muhammad Fema, and Hadiza Kalli Kashim for their exceptional performance in the prestigious international competition.
The three students demonstrated outstanding abilities across multiple categories, with Nafisa excelling in English language skills, Rukayya winning the debate category, and Hadiza receiving recognition for outstanding talent at the global finals.
