2022 GMB Grand Finale: Northern Region’s Teiya Kicks Against Castration Of Rapists

Teiya

In the Question time of the 2022 Ghana Most Beautiful Grand Finale, Northern Region’s Teiya picked question 5. She was asked her opinion on stringent punitive measures for rape perpetrators in Ghana.

Should rapists be castrated in addition to the jail terms?

She went the tangent of humanity,
condemning suggestions of
castration of rapists. She said other
women also rape women and
wondered what becomes of them
too?

She said a jail term for such criminals
is enough and they can work in hard
labour on state farms to promote
trade and tourism.

In the first round of their performances, she made a strong case for Kayayei to be offered help to curb the menace, which
has seen girls from the northern part
of Ghana travelling to the Southern part in search of greener pastures.

Teiya therefore stands to do everything within her capacity, in collaboration with stakeholders to curb the menace if she is crowned the queen.

Judge Linda Ampah congratulates
Teiya but advises her to start from the
north to prevent the girls from drifting
down south to engage on kaya.

Judge Janet Sunkwa-Mills praises
Teiya for involving the audience but
insisted that the trade by the girls
from the north is an economic activity
but they must be convinced to be
rehabilitated.

The grand finale was held at the National Theatre in Accra on Sunday, October 9, 2022.
