The following schools dotted the Bowen University landscape in Iwo: University of Ibadan, Bowen University, Osun State University and Obafemi Awolowo University.

Obafemi Awolowo University emerging as the best the overall at the moot stage, while Osun State University came thus both teams proceeded to the finals.
Oyewale Faith and Agboola Elijah represented Obafemi Awolowo University as counsels while Olajide Mary and Oseni Tawakalt were witnesses at the finals, the Mock.
In delivering its judgement, after the enthralling and brilliant final address by the highly cerebral and fire cracking counsels of OAU team, the judge resolved all three issues in favour of the prosecution (Team OAU). OAU emerged as winner of the competition. Equally Oyewale Faith emerged as the best counsel!
