Accounting students once again did put up another sensational show in the 4th and final regional debate in Mzuzu-Northern Malawi. It was another captivating encounter between Mzuzu Technical College and Malawi College of Accountancy. All debates are organised by the Institute for Chartered Accountants in Malawi (ICAM) in partnership with the European Union.

After having conducted similar debates in Southern, Eastern and Central regions, it was now the turn of accounting student in the Northern Region of Malawi to showcase their talent. The students debated energetically on whether "it is essential for entrepreneurs to have a good basis in accounting". After several rounds of questions from the attentive audience, the esteemed judges from the private sector and academia, made their difficult decision, which team was the more persuasive, assertive and convincing one.
