The fifth annual Ghana Models Awards, successfully took place at the Airport View Hotel in Accra on Saturday October 15, 2022.

A host of models and other stakeholders of the modelling industry gathered to celebrate models and related personalities, who have worked hard and have contributed to the progress of the modelling industry in Ghana.

Explaining what made this year’s Ghana Models Awards unique, the Event Director of the Ghana Models Awards, Jerry Wonder, said that certain significant changes had occurred.

“First of all, we have separated the child models from the adults, and so, the children now have their own awards which is organised separately. Also, in the adult’s edition, we have separated editorial modelling from commercial modelling in order to give room for more models in editorial modelling to emerge,” he said.

This year, the Overall Female Model of the Year went to Aisha Napari while the Overall Male Model of the Year was won by New York-based  Ghanaian model Joseph T. Aggrey.

The overall ‘Model Agency of the Year’ was ‘Godzy Modelling Agency’ with ‘Iconz Models’ winning the ‘Most Promising Model Agency of the Year’.

Other winners included Harriet Alubankudi as the ‘Plus Size Model of the Year’ Efya Harmless as the ‘Bikini/ Lingerie Model of the Year’, Libby Dsane as the ‘Female Commercial Model of the Year’, George Kafui as the ‘Commercial Male Model of the Year’ and Clinton Samuel as the ‘Editorial Male Model of the Year’ amongst others.

Special honorary awards were given during the night which included Abrantie College for ‘Contribution by Organisation’ to modelling, Hadjia Adiza Faila for ‘Contribution by Individual’ to modelling, Abu Saddick for ‘Consistency by Individual’ and  Riohs Design College for ‘Consistency by Organisation’ amongst others.
