REVIEW OF CLUB MISS TOURISM 2012


REVIEW OF CLUB MISS TOURISM GHANA 2012


Are you one of those who is a fun of beauty pageants? Well imagine  waiting  for a pageant to start three hours late and also having to wait till the  wee hours of  2:30am in the  morning; just to  get  to know who was crowned queen at the  end of the  day.

Well,  if  you pictured yourself in that  scenario, then I must say, it was a  moment of anguish, frustration, disappointment and  perhaps mixed feelings as  friends and family members of the   three winners  felt  happy  for the winning delegates, but what about those who just came to support. I  must  say that Miss Tourism Ghana is noted for the  late  start of their pageants, I do hope, this year’s would be the  last, as am sorry to say; they might  not be  lucky to have a full auditorium at the  end of the  pageant. But all in all, it was a good pageant, but was it worth the wait? 

Let’s zoom straight into the event.
The love for beauty pageants  and the  dream to become a beauty queen one day, materialized for twenty  three years old  Emmanuella Esinam Awunyo.  Emmanuella who represented the Volta Region for this year’s club Miss Tourism Ghana came tall and won the enviable prize cash, a car and a year’s contract with the organizers. Emmanuella admits her previous experience in last year’s Miss Malaika played a role in propelling her to her new feat. She was awarded as the winner for best Talent and regional presentation respectively.

After what seemed to be long hours of waiting for the delegates to represent their regions and educating us on the various projects they wish to embark on, five out of the ten delegates were selected to the next stage of the competition. The five were from the Ashanti Region, Upper  West, Northern, Volta and the  Brong Ahafo Regions.

The final moment for the crowning saw the five delegates answering questions from the various judges on tourism. This saw the  delegates display their beauty coupled with intelligence as they answered  the  questions  posed to them. On the whole  some of the  delegates did well, while others got confused as the  crowd ‘wowed’ them.
After rigorous deliberations among the  judges, Emmanuel of the  Volta region emerged as the  winner, with Nancy Antwiwaa Baah and Clementina Boapeah emerging as the 1st Princess and  the second princess of the Northern and Upper West Region respectively.  While shedding what one would term tears of joy, Emmanuella expressed her joy, while admitting that she did not answer her last question well.

The show witnessed hip life group Praye come  back to  the stage. They thrilled the audience with  some of their old and  new songs. Comedian da legend and the  Azonto twins.

Club Miss Tourism Ghana, which is in its fourth year this year is a pageant set aside to promote and encourage Domestic Tourism and tourism as a whole.IT Also seeks to present Ghana’s tourist sites to the  world through the  winners.
