Today, the DAWN Commission’s Governance Desk visited Ibadan Boys High School to engage students of the Leadership Arena club on the fundamentals of effective communication, with a special focus on debating.

The session introduced students to the importance of expressing ideas clearly, presenting arguments confidently and engaging in constructive discussions.

Through initiatives like this, we continue to encourage young people to think critically, communicate effectively and develop the confidence to participate meaningfully in leadership and governance.
