-

A 19-year-old Abena, representing the Eastern Region, has been adjudged the winner of this year’s Ghana’s Most Beautiful beauty pageant.

She narrowly beat competition from three other finalists – Ohema from the Brong Ahafo, Wekia from the Upper East and Afrah from the Ashanti region – to wear the coveted crown and hold the bragging rights for the next year.

Abena, who has been consistent with her performances throughout the 13-week competition and won the most coveted “Star performer” title four times, proved at the grand finale on Sunday night that she was the obvious choice for the crown, cash and the car.

She did not only wear the crown for the night but also drove out of the National Theatre in Accra, in a brand new Ssangyong Tivoli SUV vehicle sponsored by Silver Star Ghana Limited, filled with a cash prize of ₵10,000.

Brong Ahafo’s Ohema who gave Abena a good run for her money in the competition that started with 10 beautiful bevvy but intelligent ladies, was adjudged second while Upper East regional representative, Wekia came third.

Afrah from the Ashanti region who struggled to get enough votes from the public over the period and also failed to wow the judges took the bottom spot.

Both Abena and Ohema will also enjoy an all-expense paid trip to Dubai.
