A Twenty-year-old graduate of BlueCrest University College in Accra, Monique Mawulawe Agbedekpui, was on Friday, August 21, adjudged this year’s Miss Ghana.

The Beauty Pageant organised by Exclusive Events Ghana at the National Theatre was streamed on  HYPERLINK “http://lalafio.com/” \t “_blank” lalafio.com for patrons due to the outbreak of COVID-19. 

According to Miss Agbedekpui, she chose to be part of the Miss Ghana brand because it had shaped a lot of young women to become women of substance. 

The winner would volunteer at the Exclusive Events Ghana/Miss Ghana Foundation as well as enjoy a one year platinum gym membership at Pippa’s Health Centre and other souvenirs from sponsors. 

Also, Miss Issabella Eyram Agbo 18-year-old first year student of University of Ghana Business School, Legon, studying BSc Administration with Marketing Option and Miss Annlisa Anangfio, 22, a graduate in Human Nutrition, Food Science with Biochemistry from University of Ghana, Legon, placed 1st and 2nd runners up respectively. 

The Judging panel made up of multiple award hiplife musician, Okyeame Kwame and TV/Radio Hostess, Akumaa Mama Zimbi, charged the newly crowned queens not to be swayed  by social media rather they should serve with passion and be patriotic. 

According to Exclusive Events,  the global pandemic “blessed them with young ladies who are fighters and prepared to weather the storm with them in good times and in bad times.”
 
The grand final was laced with electrifying performances from the legendary Made In Ghana Ambassdor, Okyeame Kwame, the Tulips, Mijay, I-Kofi, Arabella and Shugalord.
