First Round of the Debate was a Bout of Glory for Girls Model Sec. Sch and 3 others

It was a keenly contested debate between schools and four schools emerged victorious out of eight schools paired in twos. This event was moderated by the chairman of the debate committee, Mr. Lawrence Abuke Oyovwikimo. The organization was superb; hall decoration was fantastic, and the ambiance was cozy for all spectators but not for the contestants. The contestants were somewhat tense due to the fact that all schools came prepared and only one school in a pair would qualify, it was a knockout stage. and this success was achieved by a collective effort of all that GCU C'9 members that supported the show especially members of the debate committee.
