July 21, 2012 - PRLog -- LONDON, UK – Peter and Paula Imafidon, the Wonder Twins who are the youngest twins ever to pass High school level Math (GCSE Maths) at the age of 6 and pass University of Cambridge Advanced Maths exam at 8, received and held the Olympic Torch as it passed through the streets of Stratford en route to the Olympic Stadium (Please also see: http://edition.cnn.com/2012/07/21/sport/olympic-torch/index.html). On the 63rd day of the Olympic Torch Relay, the Olympic Torch travelled through the heart of Stratford, Peter and Paula were keen to make the most of the unique opportunity also experienced by many celebrities including singer Will.i.am and Doctor Who Actor Matt Smith. The previous day, they were unable to contain their excitement, and were in the thick of the action (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB6ZzsBELSU).

The younger siblings of Anne-Marie, Oxford University's youngest Maths and Computer Science Graduate and the youngest manager of a Fortune 500 Company, said ‘It was so cool holding the Olympic Torch! It looks heavy, but actually it's quite light - but then it has to be if there are a lot of people who are going to carry it.’ Peter enjoyed the experience too saying ‘I'm really happy I did it, its the best thing I've ever done and now I've become a part of Olympic history.’ (http://www.imafidons.com)

The Cerebral pair, who are students of the Excellence in Education (EIE) Programme - which has produced the highest number of prodigies in the world, have been praised for their rare Olympic feat. A Statement released by EIE Board Member Chris Imafidon said "We are extremely delighted at the Twins’ extraordinary Olympic Feat! What an achievement! I hope they will serve as an inspiration to children all over the country and all over the world. Their sports journey and development, just goes to show that every child is capable of achieving anything. All children are able provided they are given an enabling environment."

In addition to their academic accolades their extra-curricular achievements are also worthy of note. Their sporting achievements include success in 100m, 200m, 400m, 4 x 100m Relay and victory in 200m London International Boat Race 2009. Also other notable EIE Alumni including Premiership Soccer Star Fabrice Muamba had the honour of carrying the Olympic Torch through his hometown of Waltham Forest (Please see: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18923697).
