It is planned from now onwards, that each year, the Association of Students of English-KNUST, would host a literary contest in the name of Master Richard Kovor, affectionately known as Dr. K.
Particularly for this year, the Richard Kovor Literacy contest is being held within the borders of the Prestigious University, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), on the birthday of Master Richard Kovor on FEB 20.
The Contest is presented by the Association of Students of English-KNUST, Writers` Club. This contest is to commemorate the selfless work of Master Richard Kovor, who just left office as the president of the largest college within west Africa, College of Humanities and Social Sciences, KNUST.
