Ms Angel Adjei-Yeboah has been crowned winner of the maiden edition of the Miss Teen Western pageant, emerging top at a colourful grand finale held on May 23, 2026.
She beats off keen competition from a pool of talented contestants to secure the crown, with Alberta Yaaba Ackah finishing as first runner-up, Edith Nico placing second runner-up, Margaret Yaa Ankomah as third runner-up, and Cindy Anderson Bondzie as fourth runner-up.
The grand finale marked the climax of weeks of intensive grooming, cultural exposure and community engagement activities by the contestants, organised by Carilex Productions.
Before the finals, contestants undertook a cultural and educational tour to the Bisa Abrewa Museum in Nkontompo, Sekondi-Takoradi, as part of efforts to enrich their understanding of Ghana’s history and identity.
Madam Princess Antwi, Chief Executive Officer of Carilex Productions, described the maiden edition as a success, noting that it had laid a strong foundation for nurturing talent while also creating awareness about drug abuse and HIV/AIDS.
“This maiden edition has been a remarkable journey, and we are proud of how far these young ladies have come. It has never been just about beauty, but about building confidence, discipline, and a strong sense of identity,” she said.
According to Madam Antwi, the pageant seeks to raise a new generation of young leaders who are grounded in Ghanaian values and prepared to contribute meaningfully to national development.
“These young girls are the future, and through this platform, we are equipping them with the knowledge, confidence and voice to make a difference in their communities and beyond,” she stated.
Ms Adjei-Yeboah is expected to champion initiatives focused on youth development, education, and cultural promotion as part of her reign.
