With the inspiring theme “Create the Future,” the nationwide contest encouraged pupils to use recyclable Indomie materials to design imaginative projects that reflected innovation and sustainability.
A statement from the organisers said every finalist went home with a carton of Indomie noodles, enjoyed plates of garnished Indomie, and participated in fun-filled activities, including student-teacher dance-offs.
“The entries were nothing short of amazing — from a life-sized robot named Indobot to a tractor, solar-powered chalet huts, a mosaic painting, a flower bouquet made from wrappers, a ship built with intricate carton cuts, and many more,” the statement noted.
The spotlight fell on Feyisitan Ewaoluwa from Living Faith School, Lagos, who won the grand prize with her invention, Indobot, which she proudly described as a robot “that can cook tasty Indomie faster and better.”
Nwosu Raymond from the East emerged first runner-up, winning ₦200,000, while Kelechi Robert from D’Glorious School earned ₦100,000 as second runner-up for her mosaic painting made entirely from Indomie packs.
Regional honours went to Maxwell Njoku, whose Indomie carton tractor stood out in the East, and Olivia Esiri from Lagos, who wowed judges with her solar chalet huts.
In Ogun State and Abuja, Jemima and another student, who made a basket from perforated cartons, received ₦35,000 each alongside Indomie gifts.
Additional participants received ₦10,000 management consolation prizes with packs of Indomie.
Speaking at the grand finale, the Deputy Director of Culture at the Lagos State Council of Arts and Culture, Mr Mudasiru Ayoola, commended the initiative.
“Indomie is doing really well, and I’m impressed with the Fan Club. It’s like a family that keeps growing stronger. We appreciate their sustainability efforts and how they nurture creativity,” he said.
Mrs Ogechukwu Joshua,National Coordinator of the Indomie Fan Club, explained that the contest aims to “bring out creativity, support recycling, and encourage teamwork between families and friends.”
“It’s about effort and talent — seeing young minds bring ideas to life,” she added.
From noodles to masterpieces, this year’s competition proved that imagination has no limits.
