For those who are familiar with high-life music, musician Nana Tuffour has a song entitled Abeiku. In the song, a little boy called
"Abeiku Ghansah," consistently disrupts his mother's love-making sessions with her lover -- making him what is called Abanoma in local
vocabulary.
It just turns out that Prempeh College has a boy who strikingly shares the same first and last names as the character in that famous song.
Abeiku Ghansah
And the Abanoma of Prempeh College is the guy who has lifted Prempeh hopes and made the whole Sofoline
community excited about a championship trophy in this year's National Science & Maths Quiz competition.
The reason for the enthusiasm is that Abeiku, son of a pharmacist, is nearly perfect when it comes to quiz competitions.
So far, he has shown his perfection by getting all the questions correct in the trial quizzes Prempeh has had so far.
Against OWASS, he answered 32 of the 36 questions Prempeh was given, leaving 4 for his team mates to answer for fear of being
called a one-man-show. Not only does Abeiku know all the answers Prempeh get, he also knows the answers our opponents get, often reciting the answer silently in his mind
before our opponents even utter a response. Though all the questions presented at Santasi were written by the
quizmasters of the host institution, he knew the answers to 100% of them.
The boy is considered nearly infallible in quiz competitions.
Getting answers wrong is an exceedingly rare ocassion for him. Headmaster Owusu-Achiaw has emphatically
stated that: "Single-handedly, this boy can represent the school and bring the trophy on his own."
With him, Prempeh is likely to do very well as Owareans have recently learned. Only a misunderstanding with his father
could stand in
the way of our success.
