After a heated and spirited day of debate, Yaa Asantewaa Girls and Opoku Ware School have booked their place on the next stage of the educational contest.
YAGHS put up a strong fight against the vociferous debaters of T.I. AMASS, Fomena, whiles OWASS whose supporters filled the auditorium with loud cheers, trampled Super KASS after a highly competitive debate.
Before the debating session, Opoku Ware, Yaa Asantewaa Girls engaged in chants (jama) to lift the spirits of their debaters.
Yaa Asantewaa won the first contest in a 234-222 against Fomena T.I. Amass on the motion: "People should pass a political literacy test to be able to vote".
The other contest saw the OWASS put up a spirited charge against Super KASS after singing their anthem.
