The beautiful and eloquent Yayra E. Nego was crowned Miss Universe Ghana 2011 at a closed pageant event held at Ghana’s new Premier 5-Star Movenpick Ambssador Hotel, Saturday evening . The crowning event was the final stage in the six (6) months audition and selection process which commenced online in January 2011 followed by shortlisting and rigorous interview process.

Miss Yayra Nego, a 26 year old professional model and pageant consultant impressed the judges with her elegance and smartness to ease her way to the top with fierce competition from first runner-up Jennifer Amegbor and second runner-up Angelica Alomele respectively.

The judges for the finals were Ameyaw Debrah, Rodney Quarcoo, Valentina Sweetie Forte, Claudia Kwarteng-Lumor, Dehner Henry and Brazilian Ambassador to Ghana, H.E. Luis Fernando de Andrade Serra.  Yayra will proudly represent Ghana at the upcoming Miss Universe pageant in Sao Paulo, Brazil in September.

The selection process was another exclusive event which proved to be a master execution from the pageant organizers to focus on the content and results without the usual big budget production value.

Miss Yayra Nego expressed her immense joy by summing her excitement into one sentence, “my dearly departed father would have been so proud for me to represent my ancestral roots as a strong and determined Ghanaian woman of colour”.

Yayra E. Nego has a Ghanaian father from Mafi – Adidome in the Volta Region of Ghana and an American mother of German and Persian ancestry. Miss Universe Ghana is organized and produced by the INSIGNIA GROUP.
