Citi FM’s ‘The Literacy Challenge’ team on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, engaged students of Yahweh International School in Ofankor, Accra.

This is part of the team’s efforts to whip up the interest of Junior High School students across the country in this year’s competition.

Some students, in an interaction with the Citi FM team, showed keen interest in the topic for this year’s challenge.

Asiama Yaa Amponsah, one of the students, said she sees the competition as an opportunity to contribute to national development.

“Children are ordinarily not given the platform to add our voices to national issues. I see this competition as a platform to voice out my views and to be heard. I have a lot of ideas that I think when adopted will turn around the fortunes of the country.”

She is very confident of winning the competition, considering the tall list of reforms she is going to propose in her essay.

David Ato Kwamina Arthur, another student, has also decided to enter the competition, not necessarily to win the grand prize but to sharpen his writing skills.

“The topic sounds very interesting and I am looking forward to trying my hands on it. I am hoping to win, even if I do not win the competition, at least I am going to exercise my writing ability. In fact, I am going to start writing as soon as I get home.”

About The 2021 Literacy Challenge
