In the glow of academic glory that lights up family legacies, Faith Sande, the 14-year-old daughter of gospel singer Nicah the Queen and media darling Dr. Ofweneke, has emerged as a KJSEA trailblazer, erasing doubts and etching pride into her parents’ hearts.
Released on December 11 by the Kenya National Examinations Council (KNEC), the 2025 Kenya Junior Secondary Education Assessment results crowned Faith among the nation’s top performers, a feat that has her ex-spouses beaming in harmonious celebration despite their 2022 split.
From the halls of Stepping Stones School in Kitengela, Faith’s report card became a beacon of excellence, showcasing mastery across Kenya’s competency-based curriculum. While exact scores stayed under wraps in the viral screenshot Nicah leaked on Instagram, the young prodigy’s all-around prowess—spanning languages, sciences, and practical skills—propelled her into the elite ranks, outshining peers in a cohort where girls edged boys in 10 of 12 subjects.
Transitioning to senior secondary with such flair, Faith embodies the CBC’s promise: not just grades, but gateways to greatness. Ofweneke, ever the eloquent storyteller, broke the news with a tender father-daughter photo on his feed, his words a poetic prayer answered.
“My daughter, you have taken away shame from my face as a father. Becoming among the top students in this year’s KJSEA was a prayer that I was praying, and God has answered!! Faith Sande your mum @nicahthequeen and I are proud of you… My baby, my pride!”
Nicah, quick to amplify the joy, flooded the comments with unfiltered elation: “God has done it for us Glooooryyyy.” Their duet of delight—pampering Faith with love and perhaps a shopping spree—paints a portrait of co-parenting at its finest, turning past headlines of heartbreak into harmonies of hope.
Kenyans, ever quick to rally around rising stars, showered the post with virtual confetti. “Stepping stone pale Kitengela,” cheered Kanzkanguha, while Consolata_njoki gushed, “Congratulations, my girl. . I’m proud of you.” Tina09cn simply beamed, “Congratulations ,” and Ghost_mulee reminisced, “Congratulations to her. I remember we had a career talk at Stepping Stone School.”
Amid KNEC’s formula explanations from CEO David Njengere and Education CS Julius Ogamba’s nods to gender triumphs, Faith’s story stands tall a reminder that in Kenya’s evolving classrooms, one child’s shine can bridge divides and inspire a million more.
For Nicah and Ofweneke, this is more than a milestone; it’s a mended chapter, proving exes can encore as allies. As Faith steps forward, her parents’ pride echoes: In the rhythm of results, family’s the sweetest score.
