Edith Ohui eyes Miss Entrepreneur top prize
Edith Ohui Domeh
A fast-rising fashion designer, Ms Edith Ohui Domeh, has set eyes on winning this year’s Miss Entrepreneur Ghana beauty pageant.
Scheduled for December 21, in Accra, the event which would set the stage for the Christmas festivities would be held under the theme, “Empowering Women in Entrepreneurship through Pageantry.”
The event which would be the third edition is aimed at recognising female entrepreneurs for their efforts and provide them with the assistance to expand.
With her brand name, Ohui Kouture located at Kasseh-Ada in the Greater Accra Region, Ms Domeh is gradually carving a niche in the fashion industry and looking forward to winning the Miss Entrepreneur accolade would be a huge boost to her efforts.
Speaking to the Spectator Agoro, the 27-year-old said she had worked very hard over the years and crowning her efforts with the awards would be a giant step in her career.
“This would also go a long way to help in branding and business promotion as I look forward to becoming a household name,” she stated.
Additionally, she said, it would also help in her quest to impact on society by expanding and training young girls within the Ada community and beyond.
“That would help provide skills for young girls and prevent several vices including teenage pregnancy and drug abuse,” she stated.
“Let us come together and support entrepreneurship by engaging the youth and providing them with support and funds to learn a skill and also start a business,” he added.
She called on friends, family and the public to support her by voting massively for her to lift the crown in December.
