The New Young Progressive Debaters (NYPD) took a critical look at various national aspects in a debate entitled “Culture & Tradition in Anguilla are Weak & Dying”.
The proposition was debated by Aaron Adams and Tahjique Connor, who were eventually the first place winners. In second place, for the opposition, were Taijah Leveret-Reid and Maeisha Minnet. The best speaker was Tahjique Connor.
The event, organized by Campus B of the Albena Lake-Hodge Comprehensive School, was held at the Teachers’ Resource Centre on Saturday night, July 9. Mr. Colin Johnson, one of the organisers, said it was in preparation for the Campus A senior debate.
