Over the years, the competition has attracted a large number of primary school pupils within Ogun State and Lagos State. It is worth mentioning that a total of one thousand one hundred and fifty-five (1,155) pupils from four hundred and two (402) schools within the aforesaid states entered for the competition in its 5th edition. We, therefore, use this medium to invite your school to participate in the 6th edition which comes up in January, 2018. OUR CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY Our citadel of learning, founded in 1998, is a Christian co-educational school which provides all- round education for learners. It is the reason that we are committed to building a total child. In today’s evolutionary world, we do not make light the importance of education in solving problems. One vital school subject which we, from our wealth of experience, discovered to have the capability to improve creative problem-solving skills in learners in different educational levels is Mathematics. It is on account of the above that we consider TUMA competition a part of our corporate social responsibilities. Thus, our target learners and competitors are primary five and six pupils in private and public schools within the states which form our areas of coverage.

This study assessed the environmental impacts of inland sand mining in six selected local government areas of Ogun state, Nigeria. Twenty-seven (27) inland sand mining sites were identified, fourteen (14) of which are currently active mining sites while thirteen (13) are abandoned. The geographic location and attributes sites were captured for a spatial analysis using Geographic Information System (GIS). The sites were mapped and classified based on the severity of the damage to the ecological system. The study revealed that three of the local governments areas i.e. Abeokuta South, Ifo, Obafemi/Owode and Ado-Odo/Ota have inland sand mining sites with severe degradation, while Sagamu and Ewekoro local governments areas have inland sand mining sites that can be regarded as moderately and less degraded respectively. The intensive urban and industrial developments around these areas contributed enormously to the increased demand of sand for building and construction.
