Fireworks at Miss Golden Stool 2023
The contestants for this year’s show
Founder of Miss Golden Stool beauty pageant, Ms Sally Akua Amoakowaa has promised patrons ‘fireworks’ as the new season get set to begin tomorrow.
Sixteen beautiful Ghanaian ladies who appreciate culture and tradition have been selected from across the country to compete for the ‘Golden Stool.’
The confident ladies represent Eastern, Western, Bono, Ahafo, Ashanti and Central regions.
According to Akua Amoakowaa, this year would see massive improvement as compared to last year’s edition.
Speaking to The Spectator Agoro at the launch of this year’s event (the fifth edition) last Sunday, Ms Amoakowaa asked patrons to expect something different, adding that there had been some adjustments to what they did last year.
“Expect something different and fireworks in the eight weeks of fully-packed actions. Each week will be something different with well-researched topics,” she added.
She urged the contestants to give their best and think beyond the crown since Miss Golden Stool was providing them with a bigger platform.
“Most at times, people focus on winning the crown to the extent that if they don’t win, their world comes to a halt and they do not see themselves impacting society. This year we want to help the contestants look beyond that.” she disclosed.
“Last year we tried to add a bit of vocational training for the contestants. This year, there would be something to enable contestants to make an impact in society even if they do not win the contest,” she added,
All the contestants have expressed their readiness to make a huge statement on the big stage as the first episode would be shown at 8:30pm tomorrow on Adom TV.

AfroGee and Kofi Kinaata team up on ‘Adom Bi’ to encourage youth
In a bid to uplift disheartened youth, singer cum rapper AfroGee has partnered with award-winning musician Kofi Kinaata on a new inspirational single, ‘Adom Bi.’
Drawing from his personal struggles, AfroGee shares in the song how God’s grace transformed his life when all other efforts failed.
“I’ve tried everything—education, hustling on the streets, and other means—but God’s grace came through in ways I never imagined,” he reflects in the lyrics, attributing his success entirely to divine intervention.
Kofi Kinaata adds his own testimony to complete the song: “I used to be overlooked and faced countless setbacks. Now, what God has done is beyond words—I need help expressing my gratitude. Today, bank alerts are flowing, and Jah never fails.”
AfroGee explained that the song was born from a deep desire to encourage the youth who may feel stuck or hopeless. “Having experienced that sense of despair myself, I knew I had to use my story to inspire others,” he shared.
He also emphasized the importance of collaborating with Kofi Kinaata, saying, “Who better to join me than Kinaata? We’re childhood friends from Effiakuma, and I know his story and talent would make this song truly impactful.”
Produced by WillisBeatz, ‘Adom Bi’ is available for streaming on all major platforms and can be accessed via [linktr.ee/mightyafrogee](https://linktr.ee/mightyafrogee).
