2nd edition’s winner of GGMF Literary Award gets the prize at UEA

It took place last Friday, January 24th, at the U.E.A, as part of the festivities celebrating the 5th anniversary of the Gianni Gaspar Martins Foundation, the award ceremony for the winner of the GGMF Literary Award, which is now in its 2nd edition.

This edition’s winner was the writer Ntony Kunsevi “Fwantondwa” with the work “The syntax of the prestige of the language”, a poetic work that combined the criteria presented in the competition so that it could obtain the highest number of votes.

The winner of each edition receives the symbolic amount of one million kwanzas.

“This is an award that not only gives more value to literary artistic creativity, but also encourages the creation of written art by those literary creators who have their works shelved and are looking for an opportunity to be published,” said the winner of this second edition.

There were also cultural attractions with the poet Gago, the poet Mukengue and the singer Nando Ngunga, which led the public, who were present to honor the event, to applaud with satisfaction.

Remembering that the first edition was won by David Gaspar with the prosaic work “542 years in a Coma”.

Gianni Gaspar Martins Foundation, a non-profit institution, also has the scope of its projects to enhance culture in different aspects.
