Representation at Miss World

Ghana debuted at Miss World 1959 with Star Nyaniba Annan. However, there have been two candidates (1990 and 1991) who represented Ghana at Miss World but were not Miss Ghana titleholders. There are also several years that Ghana did not send a representative to Miss World even though there was a titleholder.

Notes on representation at Miss World

  • 2003: Due to a change in national the pageant organizer, a winner could not be crowned in time for Miss World. Instead, the winner for 2003, Serena Naa Ashi Roye, competed in Miss World 2004[19]
  • 2006: Lamisi Mbillah was fast-tracked to the semi-finals by winning the Beauty with a Purpose Award[20][21]
  • 2007: Irene Dwomoh was fast-tracked to the semi-finals by winning the Miss World Talent Award[22][23]
gollark: The competition obviously should be set up so that I'll win.
gollark: Consider things like "luck" and "who has free time at the time".
gollark: You should obviously secretly bias the competition toward me.
gollark: Oops, wrong channel.
gollark: Indeed.
