Speaking with the host of Luv In The Morning, David Akuetteh, one of the contestants, Matilda, said they had hoped the trip would not end.
“It was an amazing experience altogether. We were actually sad when we were returning.
“The people of Dubai were receptive and we enjoyed some Ghanaian tunes from the band at the restaurant,” she said.
Other past contestants shared some experiences on how beneficial the competition has been.
Anasthasia, now a first year Public Administration student of the University of Ghana, disclosed the competition has honed her debating skills.
“I still debate at the University because of this exposure. It has helped me a lot in public speaking and to know more about the world and even think wider.
“The foundation given me through this debate has afforded me enough leverage to move on in life,” she said.
