'Be careful' - Minister advises Miss Ghana organizers

Deputy Minister for Works and Housing, Barbara Archer Ayisi has cautioned organizers of the Miss Ghana beauty pageant to be very careful.

The Miss Ghana pageant seems to have lost its prestige as organizers of the event have been bombarded with numerous controversies. It all began when Inna Patty, the current owner of Miss Ghana’s franchise holding company, Exclusive Events Ghana was reported to have told Stephanie Karikari, Miss Ghana 2010 in public that she was too ugly and therefore unfit to be on the same billboard with the then Miss World.

Miss Ghana 2015, Antoinette Delali Kemavor, Miss Ghana 2013 Giuseppina Nana Akua Baafi and Miss Ghana 2017, Margaret Dery have all described Inna Patty as a manipulative pimp who runs a glorified escort agency masquerading around as a beauty pageant.

The latest to rock the pageant is news of the First runner-up of the 2019 edition of the Miss Ghana beauty pageant, Sarah Odei Amoani resigning because she is unhappy with some demands required of her.

Commenting on these allegations in an interview with Zionfelix as a past delegate of the pageant, Honorable Ayisi strongly said due to the cultural perceptions Ghanaians have about beauty pageants, it is very necessary for Madam Inna Patty to be careful when managing these young girls.

Honorable Barbara Ayisi spoke to Zionfelix at the just ended Ghana actors and entertainers award.
