Miss Golden Stool: Agyakowaa adjudged Best Performer
Representing the people of Bekwai in the Ashanti Region, Agyakowaa was adjudged last Sunday, November 12, as the contestant who was able to mesmerise the judges and audience.
This year’s Miss Golden Stool beauty pageant commenced with some excitement as contestants sounded their readiness to thrill patrons in the weeks ahead during the launch.
This week’s focus was on marriage ceremonies amongst various Akan communities in the country.
On the night, the judges, Nana Adwoa Awindor, Okyeame Kwame and Mary Nyamekye singled out Agyarkowaa as the best performer.
Agyakowaa played the role of a family elder, Opanin Kojo Kum who led his son and the family from the Ashanti Region to ask for a Ga-Adangbe lady’s hand in marriage.
This was after the family had done their enquiries to pave the way for knocking and subsequently the marriage ceremony.
Throughout her delivery, the judges saw her display as engaging, informative and had a touch of humour which was admired by many in the auditorium and at home.
Her presentation narrated the process through which a marriage ceremony is held in the Ga-Adangbe communities in Ghana.
For her remarkable display, Agyakowaa was given products from sponsors.
On the same night, Ababio, Araba and Oseikrom were saved as unlucky Frimpomaa and Antwiwaa were evicted.
The organisers urged the public to continuously vote for their favourites for their constant stay in the competition.
Another exciting episode will take place this Sunday on Adom TV at 8:30 PM.
Season 5 of Miss Golden Stool was launched at a spectacular event on October 15, 2023 on Adom TV.
The pageant is aimed at celebrating Ghana’s cultural diversity, beauty, talent, and intelligence of the contestants.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
