Oratory Olympics is excited to announce the launch of its Online Debate Competition, inviting passionate debaters from across Nigeria to participate in this prestigious event.
The competition, organised by Oratory Olympics aims to provide a dynamic platform for young individuals to showcase their oratory skills and engage in critical debates on pressing national issues.
Nigeria’s Presidential Term: A National Debate
The Nigerian political landscape is at a crossroads. A proposed constitutional amendment seeks to introduce a single six-year term for the President, Governors, and Local Government Chairmen. This significant move aims to address the challenges of election-related costs and administrative disruptions.
Sponsored by Hon. Ikenga Ugochinyere and 50 other lawmakers, the bill proposes amendments to key sections of the 1999 Constitution. As this debate unfolds, we invite you to be part of shaping Nigeria’s future.
Oratory Olympics: Your Platform
