The organizers have said they are not leaving anything to chance and would ensure a fair-to-good 54th edition.<\/p>\n<p>Started some 54 years ago, the Miss Ghana competition continues to be Ghana\u2019s true claim of a beauty pageant national in appeal. Over the years that it has been running, the pageant has offered opportunities for most Ghanaian youths who at one point in time used the competition\u2019s platform to advance onto higher heights.<\/p>\n<p>The first edition was won by the late Monica Amekoafia. After shying away from participating in the competition, little Monica found herself on stage at the Accra Community Centre on the 4th of March, 1957 where she competed alongside representatives from the Western, Eastern, Ashanti and Northern provinces and won, much to the admiration of the judges.<\/p>\n<p>For her prize, Monica, 22 at the time, won a visit to London and had the opportunity to meet the Mayor. She also received beauty treatment products and services as well as paid several corporate visits.<\/p>\n<p>54 years after her victory, the event continues to live up to its name in producing beautiful and intelligent Ghanaian ladies including last year\u2019s winner Stephanie Karikari.<\/p>\n<p>Miss Ghana is under the direction of Media Whizz Kids, a fully integrated marketing communications company with years of industry experience.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>More:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Organizers of the Miss Ghana competition, the nation\u2019s most accepted and valued beauty pageant have hinted of an exciting event this year.
