Let’s keep a firm hold, or speak up.

Maybe Anniversary deserves something too, haha.
@PrinceKyeremiah queried:
Organizers, what formulates the award criteria? This award should have gone to OSEI TUTU SHS. In the quarter-finals, OPOKU WARE SCHOOL had 45 points, OSEI TUTU SHS had 43 points, while ST. JOHNS’ SCHOOL had 18 points. So why is ST.JOHNS’ considered the runner-up?
@bb_elisco echoed:
We should grab this one outright.
@Loveroyal exclaimed:
God made it happen. Congratulations.
