Peter and Paula Imafidon, 9-year-old twins from Waltham Forest in northeast London , are a part of the highest-achieving clan in the history of Great Britain education. The two youngest siblings are about to make British history as the youngest students to ever enter high school. They astounded veteran experts of academia when they became the youngest to ever pass the University of Cambridge ’s advanced mathematics exam. That’s on top of the fact they have set world records when they passed the A/AS-level math papers.

Chris Imafidon, their father, said he’s not concerned about his youngest children’s ability to adapt to secondary school despite their tender age. “We’re delighted with the progress they have made,” he said. “Because they are twins they are always able to help and support each other.”
To Peter and Paula’s parents, this is nothing new. Chris Imafidon said he and his wife have been through this before: they have other super-gifted, overachieving children.
Peter and Paula’s sister, Anne-Marie, now 20, holds the world record as the youngest girl to pass the A-level computing, when she was just 13.

She is now studying at arguably the most renowned medical school in the United States , Johns Hopkins University , in Baltimore .
Another sister, Christina, 17, is the youngest student to ever get accepted and study at an undergraduate institution at any British university at the tender age of 11.
And Samantha, now age 12, had passed two rigorous high school-level mathematics and statistics exams at the age of 6, something that her twin siblings, Peter and Paula, also did.

Chris Imafidon migrated to London from Nigeria in West Africa over 30 years ago. And despite his children’s jaw-dropping, history-making academic achievements, he denies there is some “genius gene” in his family. Instead, he credits his children’s success to the Excellence in Education program for disadvantaged inner-city children.
“Every child is a genius,” he told British reporters.

“Once you identify the talent of a child and put them in the environment that will nurture that talent, then the sky is the limit. Look at Tiger Woods or the Williams sisters [Venus and Serena] — they were nurtured. You can never rule anything out with them. The competition between the two of them makes them excel in anything they do.”

[juptVatoSoito]

Then why aren't they in Nigeria?

Because they were born in England...Why aren't you in Ireland, Scotland, England or Wales?

Brixtown....211 I believe this wholeheartedly. For a good chunk of my life, I was home schooled. I thank the gods I was born to a wise mother who made it her prerogative to make sure I got the best education possible. Only when I matured did I really realize how much of a blessing she was for my growth and development. I could have been born to any mother and into any situation. I don't have any complaints...I had it good.

I went to elementary school and then was home schooled and then later on went to a selective public school and then to an actual prestigious school(All girls, Catholic) later on. When the time came for me to go to the public school, a lady from the board of education came to see me. She tested me to make sure I was at the level I needed to be(And rightfully so...Some parents aren't equipped to home school their kids. I had to take test at a random location every now and then, but testing me was a way to make sure I was where I needed to be for my age). It was an IQ test...I had to complete patterns, shapes, sentences, etc etc...When we was done the only words she had for me was that, "Whatever your mother's doing...Tell her not to stop". She left and I never saw her again.

I wish this family the best in future.

Simple, only rich Nigerians can afford to migrate to the UK.

[karaburatoreror]

Simple, only rich Nigerians can afford to migrate to the UK.

Proof?

[welihiedginly]

Simple, only rich Nigerians can afford to migrate to the UK.

Nonsense. If I'm not mistaken, most Nigerians in the UK actually came from poverty.

[Dyerryjex]

Nonsense. If I'm not mistaken, most Nigerians in the UK actually came from poverty.

No poor African can afford to travel to Europe, they barely can feed themselves.

Nigerians in UK came from middle class, but African middle class is poor for European standards.

Only Spain and Italy have poor Africans that came in rafts through the Mediterran.


Rich people are always more intelligent than poor people, specially in Africa where being poor means to have bad nutrition as a child and in consequence not good brain development.

Rich Africans don't need to migrate.

Not surprising. I've noticed that Nigerian immigrants tend to be the most brightest out of all African groups

Just shows any one can be smart, race doesn't matter

This is true

Being good in school is all about your study habits and interest. The only subjects that require intelligence would be English and Sociology. Yes theoretically anyone can be smart as long as they dedicate their time to improve their cognitive abilities

[bestcigsnick]

actually many nigerians dont come here as a immigrants but instead come here as a student and they decide to stay afterwards

they is a difference when people come here as a refugee who unable to read or write compared to someone who is already educated in their home country

but congratulations to the family anyway
