A Nigerian teacher recently showcased his creative method for teaching probability to SS1 students by using 27 envelopes, with five containing ₦1,000 cash and the rest holding only paper.

Sharing his experience on X (formerly Twitter), he explained that his class consisted of 17 students and that the activity involved each student randomly selecting an envelope to demonstrate the concept of probability.

Although the teacher did not share full details of the session, he expressed satisfaction with the outcome, humorously stating, “These kids are lucky to have me.”
