Brilliant Abiagom Edward from Ibusa, Makes Top 20 Highest JAMB Scores List

- Emeka Esogbue

Brilliant Edward Abiagom from the Ibusa community was one of the top 20 performers on the list released by Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board (JAMB) in Abuja, the nation's capital.


The list, "Top 20 Highest JAMB Score for 2024/2025 Academic Session," shows Abiagom Edward C brilliantly sitting on number 16 out of the first 20 with a splendid score of 348.

Consequently, PEN MASTER carried out diligent findings which revealed that Abiagom Edward hailed from Anioma's Ibusa community and is the son of Mr. Ike Abiagom, Publisher of Grassroots Newspaper Publishers, a subsidiary of Newsbreeze Newspaper.

Subsequent inquiries disclosed that the University of Benin is the university of young Abiagom Edward Chinonso's choice, as requested and that he has selected Electrical/Electronic Engineering as his major.

Broken down, the UTME acknowledged-slip shows that the candidate, Abiagom Edward Chinonso with Reg No: 202441807707DF recorded Eng: 65, Math: 93, Phy: 95, CHE: 95; an aggregate of 348.

When contacted on the issue, sources from the community who spoke to PEN MASTER on the condition of anonymity said he was not surprised at the distinctive performance of Abiagom.

"The Ibusa people are known for their academic brilliance," he said.

"The colonial administration's early construction of educational institutions in the community facilitated the development of human capital in the community."

"Edward Abiagom deserves constant supervision since he has done Ibusa proud. People like him deserve to enjoy scholarship from our people to soar," he concluded.

In 2020, 12-year old Chika Ofili from the community made news for discovering a new mathematical formula and was honoured with TruLittle Hero Awards.

Edward Chinonso Abiagom hails from Isieke in Ibusa, Oshimili North Local Government Area of Delta State.

DIAMOND JUBILEE AGE: 20 THINGS THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT FRED AJUDUA

DIAMOND JUBILEE AGE: 20 THINGS THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT FRED AJUDUA On January 21 2020, Pen Master paid Chief Fred Ajudua a scheduled visit at his Lagos-VGC Marble Dome Home, a large and imposing house sitting on a hill from where it vigorously engages public views and attention. On entering the house, Pen Master freely walked in and around, in the spirit of the love that always binds the people of Igbuzo. The man, Chief Fred Ajudua often described as the “Architect of Modern Ibusa” is unarguably one of the biggest fish in history to have come out of Ibusa even as it is said that nearly every Ibusa family has benefited from him one way or the other. Beyond what you know about him, there seems many sides you do not know. As the Igbuzo Chief celebrates his 60 th Year birthday, your Pen Master brings you the things you do not know about the highly influential Igbuzo Chief. Pen Master also dug into the Ajudua family photo depository all for your knowledge. Happy reading! ...

A SHORT HISTORY OF OBOLLO CLAN IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA

A SHORT HISTORY OF OBOLLO CLAN IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA By Emeka Esogbue Introduction Not many historical literatures on the Obollo people exist for the usual reasons associated with our people who prefer to write the history of mighty and populous peoples already enriched with volumes of historical accounts and records. Thus while there are historical documents on other peoples of Igbo, for Obollo, it is the story of dearth of documents. However, it is within my historical concern that the rich history of this part of Igboland be adequately researched into, documented and preserved for the future generation. I do not hail from this part of Igboland but my historical background, interest and curiosity propelled me towards the acquisition of both oral and written information to put this material together. Geography The various Obollo communities comprising of Obollo Afor, Obollo Etiti, Obollo Eke, Obollo Orie and Obollo Nkwo are strategically situated at the regional bou...

SEE HOW ANIOMA PEOPLE DRESS ON THEIR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE THE ERA OF USING OUR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE TO PROMOTE ATTIRES OF OTHER GROUPS IN NIGERIA IS GONE

SEE HOW ANIOMA PEOPLE DRESS ON THEIR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE THE ERA OF USING OUR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE TO PROMOTE ATTIRES OF OTHER GROUPS IN NIGERIA IS GONE Today is Saturday, conventionally set aside for marriage ceremonies. Awareness on how our Anioma brides and grooms attire themselves during their traditional marriage has fast spread and entrenched. We no longer promote other group's cultural attires because we want them to promote our own instead. I say many thanks to our Anioma cultural advocates on this day because our labours to preserve as well as promote the good cultures of our Anioma society have never been in vain. Noticeable now is that in   time of our traditional marriages, we costume ourselves in Akwa-Ocha which brings out our god-given beauty. A few moments after her traditional marriage in Umuodafe, Ibusa on December 28, inside the Agokei palatial home, I visited former Miss Amaka Thelma Agokei, the bride. I was rather late; but I met this beautiful bride t...
