I USED TO TELL MY MOM I’LL BE THE FIRST PERSON TO BRING CELEBRITY STATUS TO MY HOMETOWN; MISS GOLDEN STOOL WINNER 2022
The three regions Bono, Bono East, and Ahafo regions previously known as (the Brong Ahafo Region) have had the likes of miss Akpene Diata Hoggar, a representative from BrongAhafo who represented the region in miss universe Ghana 2018 and emerges as the winner of the particular beauty pageant. For such a historic moment, Brong Ahafo has had the bragging right of producing Ghana a representative in miss universe international 2018 which took place in Thailand. Before that historic moment for the Brong Ahafo community in 2018, there was miss Abena Boakye the first representative from BrongAhafo to emerge in the finals of GMB in 2011 and crowned as the 3rd runner-up. These beauty queens and a few others have been part of the few key people who have had the opportunity of giving exposure to communities and cities they represented in the region.
Since the division of the Region into Bono, Bono East, and Ahafo region, Ahafo’s very own AbrewaNana from Mim who in the past years had already competed in a number of beauty contests coming up as the 3rd runner up of ‘Face of IBM&J’ and auditioning for GMB once, got the chance to represent Ahafo region in Adom TV’s edition of its beauty pageant ‘The MissGolden Stool’, emerging as the winner of the 2022 edition became a historic moment for people of Mim in Ahofo and its environs.
In an interview with miss golden stool by DJ Ike on our very own Rejoice Media-TV when the queen was asked what inspired her to compete in the beauty contest?
The queen answered she has always wanted to contest in Ghana Most Beautiful since her childhood days when she saw the organizer of miss Golden Stool Akua GMB winning the contest for Ghana Most Beautiful. When the queen got enrolled in IBM&J, she competed for ‘face of IBM&J’ where she emerged as the 3rd runner up but felt cheated because her competitive nature in her made her think she deserved to win. According to the beauty queen from Mim, she almost gave up on her beauty pageant dream after that incident until her uncle/manager encouraged her to pray and never to give up on her dreams and assured her of his support.
“I always wanted to do something that no one has done before in my town, I always tell my Mom I will be the first person to bring celebrity status to my hometown so I always wanted to do something extraordinary for the people in my hometown…..because Mim is a town very dear to my heart and I’m willing to do something good for Mim”
The queen later added that she never thought she had the chance of winning the beauty contest, but her only prayer was to be at the race of a runner-up to secure the opportunity of working with Adom TV.
