The closing date for submission of entries is August 1, 2014.<\/p>\n

Citi FM\u2019s<\/strong> Programmes Manager, Jessica Opare Saforo in an interview explained that the launch is taking place at Alsyd Academy because the 2013 winner of the contest, Isabella Quaye emerged from the school.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just thought it will be a great way and serve as an encouragement to the rest of the children in the school that if they participate in a contest of this nature; a nationwide contest, they will stand a good chance of winning something and acquiring something for themselves,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The contest is for\u00a0pupils between the ages of 10 and 14 and this year\u2019s topic,.<\/p>\n

According to Ms Opare-Saforo\u00a0it is to encourage\u00a0creative writing.<\/p>\n

She said she is convinced that at the end of the contest, the station will achieve the set goals and objectives regarding the promotion of literacy in Ghana.<\/p>\n
