Table Topics Contest 2013


Wednesday 8th of May Nairobi Toastmasters Club pulled off a first. They successfully hosted the first ever Table Topics contest in Kenya. The speakers were brilliant, witty and confident. The president was hilarious and the contest chair/toastmaster fantastic. The VPE Nairobi Toastmasters club had promised us a thrilling and fun event but we got a bomb.

As each of the twelve participants responded to the question:
 Dishonesty or telling a lie is considered unacceptable. Some people however believe that telling a white lie is okay and can sometimes be considered a good thing. Do you agree?”


 I  got to hear statements like:

Father of the lie john 8:44
Pushing a deadline until it dies
Dishonesty is a measure of relativity of how we see the world
Dishonesty is how we survive life

Tell you what, I recommend you get hold of any speaker that is ready to share with you the youtube link to their speech. You will love it. You can also try your luck at http://nairobi.toastmastersclubs.org/Nairobi_Toastmasters_videos.html

As for me, my complain that Kenyans have become pathological liars is now sedated.
