Afua Ansah
Ms. Afua Ansah, TSB2016 winner will join President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo today March 6 to light the perpetual flame at the Independence Square, as part of the celebrations for the 60th independence anniversary of Ghana.
In 2016, Afua Ansah won The Spelling Bee Ghana and went on to the US to make history as the first ever African finalist at the Scripps Spelling Bee, USA. Her outstanding performance in the competition earned her a standing ovation in Washington, DC. She was also featured on many local and international media.
By dint of hardware, Afua brought international media attention on the excellence that Ghana’s education offers. Based on this feat, she was chosen to be on this honourable assignment.#
