“I WANT TO RUN MY OWN BANK AT 15” – 10 YEAR OLD NIGERIAN GIRL

A ten year-old Nigerian child has been accepted to start her maths degree at a British university.

Having enrolled a short while ago, the young girl is already at the top of her class following a 100 per cent score in a recent test.

From the early age of seven years, Esther Okade had always wanted to go to university.

“I actually wanted to start when I was seven. But my mum was like, “you’re too young, calm down.” “She would say, ‘mum, when am I starting?’, and go on and on and on,” said her mother. After three years of persuasion, Esther finally got her mother to take her to university.

She began applying in August and a phone interview, an essay and a maths exam later she got accepted into the Open University in December to study for a maths degree.

When she isn’t studying for exams, CNN reports that she writes math workbooks for children called “Yummy Yummy Algebra,” while her family works to open “Shakespeare Academy,” a nursery school and primary school in Nigeria’s Delta region.

She is finding her Maths degree super easy and intends to finish her degree within 2years after which she will run her PhD then run at own Bank at 15 or 16years.

  1. Is your book Yummy Yummy Algebra available yet? My 12 yro daughter is working on Algebra and quadratics, and I am horrible at math…I wish I could help her move faster, but I don’t have the aptitude for it, and finding fun, interesting math curriculum is hard to do. I would love to test out your book!
