The 7th edition of the annual Luv FM High Schools Debate kicked off at the Christian Service University in Kumasi with intense arguments and impressive performances from participating schools.
20 Senior High Schools from across the Ashanti Region have qualified to take part in the competition, which promises weeks of intellectual engagement and public speaking excellence.
Day one featured two highly competitive debate fixtures.
In the first contest, St. Louis Girls Senior High School faced off against Okomfo Anokye Senior High School on the motion: “Online learning platforms are more effective than traditional classroom learning”.
Okomfo Anokye argued for the motion, while St. Louis opposed it.
At the end of the contest, St. Louis emerged victorious with 245 points (53.93%) against Okomfo Anokye’s 201 points (46.07).
The second debate saw fierce debaters from Oppong Memorial Senior High School and Asanteman Senior High School debating the motion: “The recent appreciation of the cedi is a nine-day wonder”.
Oppong Memorial, speaking for the motion, won with 241 points (53.79%) against Asanteman SHS, who scored 207 points (46.21%).
“We are ladies from St. Louis, and no competition is tough but we don’t brag, we only show the action. We are pacesetters and we set the pace today,” a participant said.
“This is our first time and I will say my ladies did their best but it was not enough so we will come back better next time. I believe we will do our best next year,” a teacher from Okomfo Anokye SHS said.
