Angela Tabiri, popularly known as the Maths Queen, is the first Ghanaian African to win The Big Internet Math Off competition, recognized as the world's most interesting mathematician by the Aperiodical blog.

The 35-year-old Ghanaian, who finds joy in solving puzzles and mathematical questions, triumphed over sixteen mathematicians from across the globe to achieve this remarkable feat.

This is quite an accomplishment for someone who had not initially planned to study mathematics.
