The finals of Miss Ghana 2012 which came off last Saturday November 10, 2012 at the Accra International, could not compliment the pre-event hype. The publicity prior to the grand finale was flawless and one would expect nothing but the best on the final day but the show was quit disappointing. Aside bad sound, bad stage lighting and very dry and inappropriate stage design, the finalists went on and off the stage for about eight times which made the show very draggy and boring as a result of this people in the audience were spotted sleeping whiles the show went on. The show which started a little after 9pm, unbelievably ended a few minutes to 4am due to poor production and bad event direction. 22-year-old medical student of the University of Ghana, Carranzer Naa Okailey Shooter, was crowned Miss Ghana 2012. Shooter shot past 17 other gorgeous ladies to win the coveted title and a one-year bragging right as Miss Ghana. She represents Ghana at next year�s Miss World contest, to be held in Indonesia. Nadia Ntanhu and Jennifer Aku Annan placed second and third respectively. The top 5 finalists also included Sung Maryanne Billey, who won Miss Congeniality and Roseline Okoro, who also won Miss SMS Queen on the night. All three winners drive home luxurious cars from Hyundai. While Shooter gets to keep her car, the two others would use theirs officially for a year. The first three winners will also benefit from other attractive prizes including cash, and souvenirs from sponsors among other exciting prizes that formed part of this year�s unprecedented package. All other contestants will also benefit from the mouthwatering package. Other awards were: Most Beautiful Talent won by Abena Appiah, Miss Congeniality -Biley Sung La-Bou, Miss Photogenic went to Precious Kyei Bonsu, Miss Top Model was Naa Okailey Shooter, Miss Eloquence went to Naa Okailey Shooter, Miss Fitness was won by Joan Ahiawordor, Most Discipline contestant was Sabina Aryee and Jennifer Annan was the contestant with the Most Beautiful Skin. Even the conference center was about 60% full the audience enjoyed splendid live performances from international music star Asa, Efya, Sherifa Gunu, and Gyedu Blay Ambolley. Nigerian comedian Basket Mouth was also on hand to treat the audience to some good comedy. Miss Ghana 2012 was powered by Exclusive Events Ghana.
