After winning the contest, the 'Ɔdadeɛ boys' sang with immense joy as they left the auditorium.

The Achimota students who came to support their contestants were left discouraged and began leaving the auditorium early as it became clear that victory was becoming less possible.

Despite the loss, Achimota School and Ashaiman SHS remain confident they will perform well in the National Championship race.

PRESEC's victory comes after it made history and defended the Sharks Quiz title to win the Golden Book of Knowledge.

They defeated the St. Peter's SHS in a tough contest, which saw both schools with two rounds each.

This victory also makes PRESEC the first school to record back-to-back wins in successive finals in the competition's history.

Their victory in season 7 of The Sharks Quiz automatically makes them the Golden Book of Knowledge recipients from the organisers. In addition, the PRESEC boy will also receive cash, a trophy, medals, and other goodies from sponsors as the prize for winning the competition.
