In a video on X, Eric Afful Mensah said they were happy to win the trophy for the second consecutive time and promised to be victorious again in 2026.
“We are not done yet. Next year, too, we are coming for the cup. It is now our turn. We want to do a back to back to back because next year is our 150 years anniversary and we need the trophy for next year. We are praying that God will favour us next year to maintain the trophy.”
“If we maintain it, then it means that we are maintaining it three times, so we will not give the trophy to Primetime again. So they would have to go and mould another one,” he added.
Eric Afful Mensah said aside from the hope to set a new record in the NSMQ, he had already set one. He said Mfantsipim School produced the youngest winner of the NSMQ contest so far.
Benjamin Kwadwo Boakye Anim was one of the three contestants who won the trophy for Mfantsipim School. He is a 16-year-old boy.
“This year I’m happy because I presented a 16-year-old boy, Benjamin. He’s the youngest boy so far to win the NSMQ. He is Benjamin Anim. We thank God for what he has done for us.”
