MTN Nigeria Commences 2026 mPulse Spelling Bee for Students Nationwide
MTN Nigeria has commenced the 8th edition of the MTN mPulse Spelling Bee, inviting primary and secondary school students aged nine to 15 across the country to participate in one of the country’s largest literacy competitions.
The competition will run from July 20 to November 28, featuring nationwide digital participation and regional physical contests before culminating in a live grand finale in Lagos. Finalists will compete for scholarships, cash prizes, ICT devices and the coveted opportunity to serve as ‘MTN CEO for a Day’.
The initiative reflects the company’s continued commitment to promoting education and youth development by creating opportunities that reward academic excellence, encourage learning and inspire young Nigerians to realise their potential.
Building on the success of previous editions, this year’s competition introduces an expanded model designed to make the experience more accessible to students across the country. The 2026 edition will feature three regional physical contests in Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Abeokuta, bringing together qualifiers from the six geopolitical zones. This format will enable more students to progress through the competition before advancing to the national finals.
