Huamachuco: alumna ganadora se expresó contra la corrupción, la desigualdad y falta de oportunidades

A message against corruption, inequality, and lack of opportunity made authorities uncomfortable at the awards ceremony for the first-place winner of the José Faustino Sánchez Carrión National Speech and Essay Contest. It happened during the award ceremony for Estefanny Grandez Acosta from the Emblematic School No. 18207 San Nicolás in the Rodríguez de Mendoza Province of the Amazonas Region, who won first place among the 26 participating students from across Peru. "What would that incorruptible official (referring to Sánchez Carrión) think of seeing his dream dissolve at the hands of a country that mentions him in ceremonies but forgets him in practice?" Estefanny Grandez Acosta firmly stated. Present at the ceremony were the Minister of Education, Morgan Quero; the Regional Governor of La Libertad, César Acuña; the Regional Director of Education of La Libertad, Martín Camacho; the Mayor of the Sánchez Carrión Province, Santos Ruiz; and other authorities from Huamachuco.
