Let s take positive steps towards changing perceptions on pageantries - Organizer of Miss Health Ghana pageant
Madam Gladys Akyere Rockson, Chief Executive Officer of Lamrock Agency, organizers of the Miss Health Ghana pageant, has called for the need to highlight the positive impact of pageantries in the development of the country. Over the past few years, beauty pageantries in Ghana are perceived as pimping platforms where pageant ladies are procured as sexual companions for some rich persons in society. However, according to Madam Rockson, the dominant narrative that pageantries shows were being used for pimping had to change, because some were playing vital roles in the country s development across various endeavours.
