IGIHE talked to some of the contestants; Maxime uwishema a second year student says he is ready for anything that comes out of the competition but has high hopes of winning. \u201cMy biggest threat is Mugwaneza Raoul, I see him as potential winner. I\u2019m confidence though sometimes scared,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
We are being trained by professionals. I know what is expected of me and ready for Friday competition he added. My parents have built my confidence and raised my hopes of winning; I know I can beat anyone in this competition.<\/p>\n
