Radio and TV personality Nana Aba Anamoah has launched a new women empowerment project called ‘Women of Valour’.

The project is aimed at bringing together strong, courageous women to share their stories of triumph, loss and everything in between.

Expected to be held annually, Woment of Valour, Nana Aba hopes that through these women speaking their truth, others are inspired to recognise their own kind of courage, find common ground, confidence, inspiration, hope, meaning, and ultimately, inspiration toward empowered action.

The maiden edition of the event will take place on March 7, 2023, at the Labadi Beach Hotel in Accra, Ghana under the theme “Untold Stories of Courage.”

Speakers for the event include renowned Nigerian actress Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, former Electoral Commission boss Charlotte Osei, Ghanaian entrepreneur Eugenia Baffour Bankoh and many others.
