Abuklaw and Catalystic4real Kindly do well to provide us with the time you will be fully available so we can refine the time. .. |
But wait why are you suddenly concern about whether the topic had been debated before or not? This is not the first time we are using old topics, even for you, the quarter final stage was a once debated topic, the beauty of this topic lies in their beauty of seeing them from different perspective, there are some of this topic that stand all time, and will never loose their beauty, now tell me what's wrong with the topic we picked for you guys? Was once debated by who and when? Was it during this edition? I asked you, to provide such evidence that the topic was used in this edition... But you could not... We are not changing the topic on the premise that it was once debated... Catalystic4real Abuklaw |
Neyoor:Done... |
Tourshaw:Where.? |

No school in this intellectual exercise had maintain such feet, if there will be an AWARD for the most consistent TEAM, then with no iota of doubt OAU deserves the Award, However we hope and believe that teamOAU will shift base from what used to be the case to another, having met with the TEAM that displaced them in the first edition.
