Uwakmfon Joseph Utuk is a goldfish that has no hiding place. The gentle, soft-spoken and unassuming academic colossus has drawn national and international attention. In the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), he emerged one of the best in the country with a score of 349/400.

He went ahead to conquer WAEC with a wonderful result in the WASSCE examination and crowned it with an unprecedented International General Certificate for Secondary Education (IGCSE) result of A* in all his subjects. He also received the British Council Cambridge Award for Country best in Further Mathematics and World best in Mathematics with a score of 100% in Mathematics in the May/June 2017 IGCSE Exam series.

 In recognition of this outstanding performance, the Nile University of Nigeria, Abuja, offered him a full tuition scholarship to study Electrical Electronics Engineering.


The Board of Trustees, under the Chairmanship of Idotenyin Isaac approved a yearly grant of two hundred and fifty thousand naira only, towards his living expenses for the period of four years. The scholarship will stretch to his Ph.D. level as long as he maintains an expected GPA. (Culled from: Pegasus Schools 2019 Commemorative Album)
