The event, which took place from June 25 to 28, 2023, at the Area Council Service Commission House in Garki, Abuja, showcased the innovative ideas and entrepreneurial abilities of the participating teams.
The judges were particularly impressed by the outstanding projects presented by Mater Amabilis Secondary School, securing them the first position overall.
Their projects included a hydroelectric device that converts salt water into electricity and a versatile agricultural machine capable of performing tasks such as weeding, irrigation, seeding, fumigation, and monitoring soil moisture and nutrient levels.
These groundbreaking solutions demonstrated the students’ creativity, innovation, and dedication to addressing pressing societal challenges.
Mater Amabilis Secondary School’s achievement grants them the opportunity to represent Nigeria at the upcoming SAGE World Cup in Italy later this year.
Additionally, the gold-winning students have been awarded a full scholarship to study at Cyprus International University. The team was led by Joshua Ekeh and Grace Amamudi, with Ekeh also receiving recognition as the SAGE Best Mentor of the Year.
