MISS WEST AFRICA GHANA UNVEILS 14 FINALIST & TO DEDICATE THE EVENT TO LATE PRESIDENT

Organisers of Miss West Africa Ghana 2012 have announced the up and coming event wiLl be held in memory of the late Ex President John Evans Atta Mills. The organisers said there was a lot of excitement leading towards their event set for the 25th of August 2012, however the recent passing of Ex President Atta Mills has left a sad mourning feeling amongst them and their 14 finalists, and the only way to relief this is by dedicating the event Miss West Africa Ghana set for 25th August 2012, to Ex President Atta Mills.

This year, Ghana will witness the crowning of 'The BlackStar Queen', the titled theme for Miss West Africa Ghana 2012. The theme emphasizes on the Black Star of the Ghana flag which represents the people of Ghana. And as days get closer to Ghana's elections, the beautiful Miss West Africa Ghana winner will be set upon the ultimate task of campaigning for peace and promoting the beautiful riches of our culture and development.

The work of the 14 beautiful Miss West Africa Ghana finalists has already began. Last weekend saw the finalists visit the Ghana Society for the Socially Disadvantaged centre.  The centre in which the managers have remain passionate and successful at creating an institution for the physically challenged that provides them with education, a place to live, and most of all, takes them away from a life of begging on the streets. Miss West Africa Ghana and its contestants have vowed to support this institution to the best of their ability and will provide more information about the centre and their participation.

The Miss West Africa competition exists in 24 countries, 18 within West Africa, and 6 abroad, and is Africa's only queen of queens pageants. All crowned queens from each country including Ghana are then called upon to represent their region in the Miss West Africa International 2012 finals, which will take place in Sierra Leone this December. If Ghana's BlackStar queen wins the next Miss West Africa International, she will be the successor to Vanny Reis (from Cape Verde), the current international queen, from Cape Verde, who is currently in the middle of her WeDoCare tour. Tickets for Miss West Africa Ghana now available at ticketdoug.com and other outlets on the website.
