NSMQ Absa Money Zone Presentation 2

The 2020 National Science & Maths Quiz (NSMQ2020) is getting heated with a mix of excitement and sadness. The competition which is now in the Absa Money Zone stage is becoming more intense and interesting as big schools fall out.

 

Schools such as Prempeh College, Wesley Girls High School, Holy Child, St. Peters School, Pope John and current champions St. Augustine’s College have all been kicked out of the competition.

 

Meanwhile Boa Amponsem SHS, Aburi Presbyterian SHTS, Achimota School, Adisadel College and Kumasi Academy have all booked a place in the semifinals. Other semifinalists are Keta SHS, Accra Academy, Opoku Ware and Presbyterian Boys Secondary School, Legon.

 

The Absa Money Zone which begins from the Quarter Finals stage through to the Grand Final rewards all contesting teams with a cash prize based on their score points earned in each contest.

 

Commenting, Mr. Cyril Nai, Head of Marketing at Absa Bank Ghana said the Absa Money Zone is to motivate contestants to give off their best as well as reward them for their hard work and determination.

 

“Apart from rewarding all contestant with cash, the Absa Money Zone, more importantly, is to encourage contestants to keep up a positive attitude when the going gets tough and to motivate them to compete with honour, knowing that they will be rewarded for every point they earn,” said Mr. Nai.

 

The NSMQ2020 Absa Money Zone prize value for all stages has been increased. The final scores of each school would be multiplied by GH¢10.00, GH¢15.00 and GH¢25.00 as prize money from the Quarter Final, Semi Final and Final stages respectively.

 

Absa Bank Ghana has agreed a 3-year major sponsorship package for NSMQ organised by Primetime Limited in partnership with the Ghana Education Service. The investment makes Absa Bank the lead sponsor in key aspects of the competition including the Money Zone, Sci-Tech Fair, Mentoring Session and Regional Championships among others.

Ryan Ofei Sings Open The Heavens On Limitless Worship: Accra

Published

Ryan Ofei

Ryan Ofei’s voice sounds like God made him solely to praise His name. Thus, it should come as no surprise that Ryan turned down football scholarships in favour of ministering the word of God through his music. In a short period, the Ghanaian/Canadian worshiper has built an incredible repertoire that can only be proof of God’s grace upon his life. Ryan Ofei’s singles (‘No Limits’ & ‘Jehova’) as well as his debut solo project (David’s Heart) have touched souls across continents and led to tours in Europe, North America & Africa. Ryan’s contributions to Maverick City Music, a group he joined in 2021 as a songwriter & performer, has led to several Grammy nominations and a Grammy win. UK Rapper, Stormzy quite recently co-signed Ryan by performing a cover of Ryan’s “Jehova” song at Montreaux Jazz Festival.  ‘Limitless Worship: Accra’is Ryan Ofei’s second solo project and an ode to the Ghanaian roots through which God has blessed his life.

‘Limitless Worship’ opens with the uplifting ‘Hail The Name’ where Ryan Ofei’s voice beams with joy as he tells you to “lift up your eyes, look at the king, isn’t he beautiful?” A question that needs no answering. The chorus of voices that join him to sing “Yahweh” in the hook only heighten the feeling of abundance and beauty that fills you when the song starts. On ‘Amen (Wo Awie)’ Ryan praises God for fulfilling His promises to his servant. Ryan weaves his lyrics beautifully in English and closes it off in Twi on the hook. Ryan and his chorus of beautiful voices belt “Wo Awie, asem a wo kaa yɛ no, bɔhyɛ a wo hyɛɛ me no” which loosely translates to “the promises you made me, you have fulfilled them.” Ghanaian gospel stalwart Joe Mettle also lends his voice in praise with Ryan. More than halfway into the song, it switches into a powerful proclamation of unwavering belief in the promises of God which is also reflected in a switch in instrumentation that shows the intentionality with which Ryan creates music. With 5 songs and clocking in at around 30 minutes, Limitless Worship is a spirit filled showcase of Ryan Ofei’s growth in God and in musical ability. It is a wonderful listen and guaranteed to bring listeners closer to God.

‘Limitless Worship: Accra’ was recorded live in Ghana. It is Ryan Ofei’s first live recording and features elements of African worship blended with contemporary Christian music.

Limitless Worship: Accra’ is now available on all streaming platforms here: https://platoon.lnk.to/limitless-worship-accra
