“That’s incorrect that’s incorrect” the iconic voice of Quiz Mistress, Dr. Elsie Effah Kaufmann kept echoing to the Adisadel duo. Make no mistake, it didn’t stop the Cape Coast giants from receiving the “you’re right” as well.
Ghanata SHS also amassed points in this round but they lost points as well, costing them the chance to go on top.
It was same for Nsutaman who now trailed Adisadel College.
Adisco was now where neutrals expected them to be but their sadists grumbled and prayed very hard ‘Santaclausians’ as their known would fall from the top.
After the scare of losing points was temporarily over, the Problem of the Day presented it’s not so beautiful face.
For Ghanata, it was actually ugly; from a possible 10, they scored zero.
Adisadel however, maintained their lead by picking up four points, but Nsutaman kept hope of an upset alive by matching the top-dog’s points.
Adisco finished the game in the fourth round which has statements. They contestants are supposed to confirm the veracity or otherwise of the statements.
