Eight year
old Tudor Mendel-Idowu and his sister 11 year old Hazelle Mendel-Idowu
(pictured above) were the only Nigerians to take part in the Child Genius of
the Year 2014 in the UK.
The
competition consists of 20 highly gifted youngsters between the ages 7-12 who
face two grueling rounds: Logic and Reasoning and Memory Recall – where they
have just one hour to commit 104 randomly shuffled playing cards to memory.
Hazel
Mendel-Idowu was out of the competition in the second round but Tudor
Mendel-Idowu scaled through to the final stage on Sunday August 10th and made
it up to 2nd position.
11 year old Sharon
from Bolton won the competition. Tudor Mendel-Idowu is the son of Pastor and
Mrs Tolu Mendel-Idowu from Nigeria. Congrats to him
Brilliant
