Winner of this year’s season of the GMB dubbed Legacy Edition, will have the opportunity to the covetous crown for good.
Alaya talks unemployment in the Upper East Region
“I wanted a platform to push a positive agenda which is helping the women in my region. My plan is to use our cherished shea butter to create jobs and to empower women in the Upper East Region. We have resources in abundance and not everyone, to the best of my knowledge, knows the use and benefits. It’s all around and not being used for what it’s supposed to be used for”.
Badu talks teenage pregnancy in the Ashanti Region
“I was inspired to take up this [pageant] because I experienced that, not directly but my sibling gave birth and my mum took the baby [to] allow her to go back to school. She has always been proud that she was able to go back to school and I believe that if all young ladies are able to go back to school after experiences like this, it will help the whole of Ghana and not just the Ashanti Region”.
