A caterer, Dee Baby who was adjudged winner of the just ended plus size dance reality show, dubbed Di Asa organised by Atinka TV, has pledged to embark on a sensitisation campaign.
Dee Baby, who represented the people of Tamale in the Northern Region beat all 14 finalists to be crowned the winner at the grand finale held at the Grande Arena-Accra International Conference Centre on Monday, December 28.
For her prize, she took home a brand new Hyundai Accent, a popcorn machine from Sambot Industry, a cash prize and other prizes from the sponsors of the show.
Fafa, who came second received a brand new Mini-Truck (Abosey Okai Macho), a cash prize and prizes from the sponsors of the show.
For the third position, two of the finalists had the same marks after votes were collated together with the marks from the judges.
The two, Maame and Naa Dollar who jointly occupied third position jointly were both given a tricycle (Aboboyaa) respectively and other prizes from the sponsors.
The fifth position went to Amonor who also had a cash prize and products from the sponsors.
Speaking exclusively to The Spectator, Dee Baby said, “it feels good, I don’t know what to say, it was competitive, but I believed and saw myself as the winner of the competition, and at the end of it all, it came to pass,” she said.
Dee Baby disclosed that this is the time for her to work hard and change the perception of the people of the Northern Region about reality shows, and the need to get involved.
As part of this, Dee Baby said she would organise education campaigns among other activaties to ensure religion did not become a hindrance to participating in such programmes, especially Di Asa.
“This is the time I am going to work, Northerners, I have to get them involved, some have this mentality about such programmes because of their religious beliefs. I am going to organise and change the perception,” she said.
According to her anytime reality shows like Di Asa visited the enclave for auditions it was always difficult for people to volunteer due to religious beliefs among others, adding that husbands do not willingly allow their wives to take part, thinking they would be exposed.
Dee Baby believes that such programmes have some positive societal impacts and must be encouraged to bring transformation.

Organisers of Rhythms On Da Runway have announced November 28, 2026 as the date for the 16th edition of the event, to be held at the Palms Convention Centre.
This year’s edition, themed: ‘UNBOUND: Because You’ve Got Style’, is focused on breaking barriers in fashion and creating space for all.
According to the Chief Executive Officer of Nineteen57 Events, Shirley Emma Tibilla, affectionately called Cookie Tee, the focus of this edition is to give everyone an opportunity to express themselves without barriers.
She told The Spectator that as a leading fashion brand in the country and beyond, they want to open doors for people regardless of their colour, size and abilities among others.
Described by the BBC as “the biggest cultural exposé in Africa,” Rhythms On Da Runway returns this year as a celebration of fashion, music and individual expression without limits.
Organisers say for years fashion has been shaped by narrow ideas of who belongs on the runway, with certain body types, ages and abilities placed at the centre while many others are left out. UNBOUND seeks to open that picture.
This year’s runway will welcome people with different abilities, backgrounds, body types and personal stories. The theme will influence model casting, the collections, the stories told through the clothes and the way guests experience the event.
Beyond the runway, ‘Unbound’ will create room for young people to learn from established designers, gain practical experience and explore careers within fashion and the wider creative industry.
It will also open conversations around adaptive fashion, accessible event design, talent discovery, mentorship and employment.
The 2026 edition will bring together fashion designers and music stars from Ghana and across the African diaspora, with strong collections, live performances and an all-star cast of celebrity models.
The event will also feature the Black Star Awards, which will honour public figures shaping Africa’s future through leadership and contributions to the continent’s Orange Economy.
Organisers say the list of participating designers, performing artists, award recipients and other event details will be announced in the coming weeks.

Veteran Ghanaian gospel musician Bernice Offei has passed on Saturday August 12, 2026.
She was 63.
The news of her demise flashed through social media on Saturday, prompting an outpouring of grief from musicians, fans and members of the Christian community, who have since paid tribute to her distinguished career.
She gained strong reputation as a singer, songwriter and minister whose music transcended generations.
Some of her popular songs include ‘Kaa She Gbeyei,’ ‘It’s By Grace,’ ‘Nyame Kokroko’ and ‘N’adom Ara Kwa.’
Her contribution to the growth of gospel music in Ghana was recognised in 2009 when she won the Best Female Vocal Performance and Songwriter of the Year awards at the Ghana Music Awards, now known as the Telecel Ghana Music Awards.
Beyond music, Mrs Offei distinguished herself in academia and professional life. She attended Achimota School before earning an MPhil in Crop Science from the University of Ghana and a Master’s Degree in Information Technology from University College London in the United Kingdom.
Mrs Offei was married to Prof. Samuel Kwame Offei, a former Pro-Vice Chancellor of the University of Ghana, and the couple had two children.
Her death comes days after she was reported missing but was later found safe.
Mrs Offei leaves behind a rich music legacy that continues to inspire faith, hope and resilience among generations of listeners. -GNA
