Dear CEO and Moderator,

I appreciate your good works as regards The Nairaland Forum,particularly The Nairaland Inter-School Debate (NISD); more power to your elbow.

Nevertheless,it will interest you to know that the NISD only favours the Undergraduates on NL. So I ask,what about other NLers who are not into the university yet,does it mean that those people will not be carried along?
Explained below is a useful suggestion that could be of great help to you if considered.

I'm of the view that the NISD should come in two categories - the regular NISD should be reformed to the Senior Category while the Junior Category should cover all other interested NLers who are not yet into the university.

I suggest that around this period,when the Senior Category is done,the Junior Category should commence and something July this year,the Junior Category will be brought to and end.
The competition will now be taken in the UEFA League format,where the Senior Category will be the UEFA Champions League,while the UEFA Europa League. The Overall Best Debaters for each Category will now go for a face-off,similar to the UEFA Super Cup,something August or September. Come to think of it,the current Super NISD features two consecutive winners which is rather funny,because I don't know how the Super NISD will proceed in an event when thesame University claims the NISD Overall Winner for two consecutive years in a row.

Moreover,be reminded that none of the NL rules states that The NL Forum is meant for undergraduates only,so why then is the NISD meant for them only? Let every NLer be carried along in every NL Program.

I write you this,because I believe there are so many NLers who are good on the pen but have not been allowed to express or air their professional writing skills on The NL Forum.

Consider my suggestion and you will be glad you did!

your the perfect example of a failed educational system....Look at the controversial title you placed 'discrimination'......when airing your view,Instead of suggesting or convincing,,you just compute thrash and you wana partake in a debate...woe betide your sense of reasoning......

Obviously,without doubt,one can deduce how frustrated you are. Even your moniker justDULLA shows it. Honestly,I was not expecting this from you,because to whom brain is given,sense is expected.
I can therefore deduce that you're so poor in English Language that you fail to recognise that the word 'Discrimination' could convey either a negative or positive meaning,depending on the modifier.
Besides,I expected that even at your age,you should know that threads like this MUST not only contain your complaints,but also your proferred solutions/suggestions.

You claim to be better off in English Language but you still don't get that we only have '...' and '....' but you go ahead typing '.....' and double commas ',,'. Please,is it thesame BRITISH English Language I do in school that you also take?

Boss,there's a brain in your head; please use it. Slowpoke!

Hmmmmmm.


Interesting.

Fynestboi:
Hmmmmmm.


Interesting.

Good to know you're here Boss.
Please take action on my useful suggestion quickly.
Or if you ain't convinced enough,you could throw it open on the Front Page for regular Nairaland discussion.

We used to have something like that before.

Will look into it.

What about postgraduate students.....

Oh! I never knew that something like that ever existed before now. Nevertheless,considering it,will be a better improvement especially in terms of the Super NISD.

Good to have you on the thread though...

You have a point there.
But be reminded that some of the NISD Judges are Post-Graduate students.

Boss Fynestboi,am I right?

Yes.

Boss Fynestboi,am I right?

I doubt that......but if true then some of their presentation is poor !!!!.....what I will suggest is that different competition for postgraduate and undergraduate..just an opinion anyway

Oh! I see... Thumbs Up!
But when and why did you actually stop it? You could have improved on it,over the years (2013-2016).
It's somewhat like a perfect example of what I'm suggesting.

Oh! Nice one. So when is this your 'Something of such' going to take off?
