Runes seem not to be working

Character: Nunu
Summoner Lvl: 20

I saved my IP and did not purchase any runes until I reached lvl 20 and unlocked the tier 3 runes.

I have 6 slots for Marks, 6 slots for seals, 6 slots for Glyphs and 2 slots for Quintessence.

I bought 2 ea. Greater Quintessence of Potency which should give me 4.95 AP each and on my Statistic summery it shows that I should have 9 AP plus the .1 I gain from the seals per level for a total of 11 AP at lvl 18.

However when I load into the game the 9 AP does not show on my stats, nor do I receive it during the game. I do receive the .1 AP increase per level and I am getting my magic penetration and cooldown benefits from my other runes.

My rune page is saved and loaded as I am getting benefit from the other runes just not from my Quintessence. Any suggestions or help?

Thanks

Odd
Also would like to point out that those Runes seems like a bit of a waste of IP as 11 AP is tiny

Well, actually, early flat AP in glyphs and quints actually gives a lot of casters a very strong advantage early-game. But that's beside the point.

Are you sure you're loading the correct rune page on your champion select? Other than that, I can't think of anything that could be wrong.

Well I completely cleared my rune pages and started over. This seems to have worked as the ap is now showing.

Jebus actually nailed the reason why. I view NUNU as a slow character with a weak physical attack. The balancing factor is his Ice BAll.

With my build, at lvl 1 Nunu's Ice ball with +6 magic penetration and 4% cooldown does 121 pts of damage with 40% slow and 25% reduction in attack speed for 4 seconds. This seems to level the playing field and really helps me control a lane, especially if I am teamed with a fighter/assassin teammate. I wound and slow them and they finish them off.
