Sheila Solarin<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

On the hot seat for the first episode of was Sheila Solarin, widow of Tai Solarin, human rights activist and founder of Mayflower Schools.<\/p>\n

At age 86 and despite suffering from Parkinson disease, Sheila is still actively running Mayflower maintaining the school\u2019s reputable standard. With her commitment to providing quality education to Nigerian children, her winning money will go into the running of the school.<\/p>\n

Assisted on the hot seat by ace comedian, Holy Mallam and Bimbo Adelakun, a columnist with Punch Newspapers, Sheila livened up the studio with her intermittent display of her academic prowess by providing answers to questions which her assistants found a bit difficult. She eventually walked away with N2 million.<\/p>\n

At a point while on the hot seat, Sheila advised her two young assistants, \u2018Always ask a mother whenever in doubt.\u2019
Holy Mallam on his part did not disappoint as he spiced up the show with his earthy jokes.<\/p>\n

Sheila was full of gratitude to MTN for sponsoring the platform which has impacted positively on such individuals as former Nigerian goalkeeper Peter Fregene and Pa Akinkunmi, the designer of Nigeria\u2019s national flag.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
