Speaking on the initiative, the Executive Producer of the Contest, Solomon Sedinam Agbemenya reiterated the objectives for the competition and stressed on the need for expression of thoughts to be an integral part of the development of children. He explained that the contest was designed to develop children's imaginative abilities and urged parents and guardians to encourage their wards to participate in the contest.
