Miss Lois Morrison, was crowned Miss GNMTA 2009 in a beauty pageant organised by the students of the Bolgatanga Nursing Training College and the Midwifery Training School.
The event formed part of activities marking the students’ week celebration of the two health training institutions. GNMTA is an acronym for the Ghana Nurses and Midwife Trainees Association.
For her prize, Miss Morrison took away a 24-inch television set. Miss Nab Betila Alswell a second year student, became the first runner-up and took home a gas cooker and cylinder, whilst Miss Nancy Ndenab, a third year student placed third and was given a rice cooker.
Consolation prizes of pressing irons were given to those who placed fourth to the eigth position. The contestants, besides answering general questions relating to health and social issues such as HIV/AIDS and environmental cleanliness also put up dance performances to highlife, hip life and old school songs.
The well attended programme held at the forecourt of Celebrity Night Club at Bolgatanga was spiced with various dance performances by amateur groups. The low points of the night, however, were the rather long breaks in between performances and the unnecessarily long commentaries from the two MCs for the night, which dragged the programme till the wee hours of Sunday.
The theme for the week-long SRC celebration was “Promoting Quality Health Care, a challenge to a student nurse”. A number of activities were held by the student body to mark the event. It includes public education both on radio and in selected Junior and Senior High Schools in the Bolgatanga municipality.
