Excitement: Anambra State-Led Team Attains Global Stage

By Christian Aburime

Amid a positive trend defining educational excellence in Anambra State, Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo, CFR, has expressed excitement over yet another feat, this time attained on a global stage by the Anambra State-led Team Nigeria as overall winners of the 2023 Malaysian International Bilateral Debate Championship.

Congratulating the winning Team Nigeria, Governor Soludo enthused that this latest remarkable achievement is further evidence of the relentless world-class scholarly excellence for which Nigerians in general, and Anambra State students in particular, are known for.

Organized annually by The Malaysian International Schools Debate Education Society (MISDES) under the patronage of the Malaysia Ministry of Education, the debate championship is meant to promote global intellectualism and world peace initiatives among young thinkers through advocacy and debate.

Interestingly, the 2023 championship showcased the brightest minds from around the world. The competition witnessed intense debates and thought-provoking discussions as teams from Nigeria, India, China, Singapore and Pakistan traded intellectual tackles, after which Team Nigeria emerged overall winners.

But the journey to global glory for the Anambra State-led Nigeria Debate Team started from Nigeria. As MISDES every year invites some National Debate Teams to participate in their Championship, Team Nigeria was duly represented by the Anambra State Debate Team that won the Nigeria Inter-State Debate.

Then, Team Nigeria won Team Hin Hua of the Kuala Lumpur region in the quarter finals to qualify for the semi-finals.

Later, Team Nigeria again beat Team Pin Hwa, which comprised international students from India, China, Singapore and Pakistan.          

In the finals, Team Nigeria battled for the Masters with the Malaysian National Team and won overall.

Thus, Governor Soludo commended the outstanding leadership of the Anambra State Debate Team, whose stage-by-stage brilliant performances have brought the laurel to Nigeria.

According to the governor, this resounding victory reflects the amazing depth of talent, scholarship and eloquence that Anambra State nurtures and cultivates as the government continues to prioritize educational reforms and favourable learning environment.

The students’ exceptional performance not only brings pride to Anambra State but also exemplifies the significance of investing in quality education and nurturing our youth to become global thought leaders.

He commended the Ministry of Education under the leadership of Prof Ngozi Chuma-Udeh and her team

It would be recalled that Governor Soludo in June this year also celebrated 16 years old Miss Kamsiyochukwu Umeh, from Anambra State, as the best candidate in the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations [UTME] who scored a total of 360 out of 400 marks.

  1. I’ve learned several important things by means of your post. I would also like to state that there will be a situation that you will have a loan and do not need a co-signer such as a U.S. Student Aid Loan. But when you are getting credit through a regular creditor then you need to be able to have a co-signer ready to enable you to. The lenders will certainly base their own decision on the few variables but the biggest will be your credit ratings. There are some loan providers that will in addition look at your job history and decide based on this but in almost all cases it will hinge on your scores.

  2. Admiring the commitment you put into your site and detailed information you provide. It’s great to come across a blog every once in a while that isn’t the same unwanted rehashed material. Excellent read! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m adding your RSS feeds to my Google account.

  3. Fantastic website you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of any discussion boards that cover the same topics talked about here?
