The list of finalists was announced on the Citi Breakfast Show on Citi FM on Monday, August 4.
Launched on July 10, 2025, the Literacy Challenge offers GH¢10,000 and a trophy to the overall winner.
This year’s essay topic addressed a critical global issue: “In not less than 600 words, discuss the effects of Climate Change on Agriculture in Ghana. What challenges do these effects create for individuals, families, communities, and the nation? Suggest practical solutions to help all Ghanaians mitigate these challenges.”
Contestants were required to submit handwritten scripts endorsed by their parents.
The Literacy Challenge aims to identify, test, and reward the most outstanding JHS students in Ghana through a series of rigorous tests.
The Literacy Challenge is powered by Citi FM, supported by Channel One TV, and proudly sponsored by BEL MOOO and GB Investment.
