Makerere University Debate Union are the Champions of the first ever Urban TV Debate Challenge whose finals were on 7th July, 2016 at Wakisha Teachers’ Centre.
Makerere had an unbeaten record having beaten Kyambogo in semis and Gulu that beat Uganda Christian University (UCU).
The Makerere team consisted of Jordan Tumwesigye, Nina Majorine, Luwaga Emmanuel and Maate Geofrey.
Makerere qualified in position 1 from Group Stages, and Gulu qualified in position 8 but still made it to the final.
When contacted, a visibly delighted Jordan Tumwesigye (the Team Leader) said it was a victory that they saw right from their first round in the debates.
“It feels so great to win. We felt that is the least we would do for the Ivory Tower. We are so humbled by this milestone.”
Urban TV, being the Organisers, have aired these sessions from the Group Stages, through the Knockouts and to the Final.
