[size=18pt]COMMENTARY [/size]




ABU ZARIA

ABU ZARIA, as far as NAIRALAND INTERSCHOOL DEBATE is concerned, is the only team I am so surprised to see come back with what I call "Revenge mission", why? Since the inception of this intellectual exercise, their presence had been dormant, it is either they left at the early stage of the debate or they managed to get to the elimination stage through torns, they are also a consistent team, but why OAU has been the most consistent team, Abu Zaria is the opposite, but ABU ZARIA team for this third edition seems prepared for all hurdles and they happen to be one of the teams that will likely claim the third edition trophy, the funniest thing is THAT none of the old representative is with the present TEAM ABU ZARIA, what we have now are new representatives for ABU ZARIA, looking at their record since the beginning of the third edition, apart from the close victory they encountered from UNIJOS, All of their wins had been with landsliding score. TEAM Abu Zaria, I am happy for the strong comeback, this is just to tell we the organizers that the time of TEAM ABU ZARIA poor performance is over and a new time has begun ... Watch out for them in the semi finals.



UNILORIN


TEAM UNILORIN Preferably is one of the newest TEAMS, not really new but this edition is their first time of getting into the Competition, they joined us in the sophomore edition, but couldn't proceed to the group stage, they were sent packing in the essay submission stage, I believe this added to their vibe, which had been a drive that pushed them to this stage, it is not easy from the first stage to this stage, TEAM UNILORIN is also a potential winner, however they will need to prove to us that they can actualize that potentiality of winning as they compete against the "Revenge mission" of TEAM ABU ZARIA.

OUR AIM

In an era, when the internet is synonymous with scams and fraud, it gladden my heart to see the 'future leaders' coming together and forming a bond that exists beyond the e-world in order to improve and impact the society positively. This debates is coming at the appropriate time when we continue to have a decline in the reading and writing habit of our youth, this we believe his our little way of re-orientating society about the important and benefits of positive criticism through debating.


I have nothing much to say but to appreciate the Judges for their time and to implore the participants to put in their best more than before and at the end of today's exercise we all will learn new things.

Happy easter.
