The 8th edition of the Ghana Models Awards ended with dominant performances by the top winners, as the Overall Male Model, Overall Female Model, and Overall Model Agency of the Year swept multiple categories at the 2025 event.
Held on Sunday, 28 December 2025, at the Mikkado Conference Centre in Accra, the ceremony saw Kenny Jim Parku, Bintu Baaba Jallo, and Exopa Model Agency emerge as the biggest winners of the night, each picking up more than one award for their efforts over the year under review.
The trio’s multiple wins highlighted what organisers described as hard work, consistency, and sustained success within Ghana’s modelling industry.
Founder of the Ghana Models Awards, Jerry Wonder Sampson, said despite the challenges encountered in organising this year’s event, the outcomes reflected growing commitment among professional models and industry stakeholders.
According to him, the multiple wins by the leading awardees sent a strong message about modelling being embraced as a viable professional and revenue-generating career in Ghana.
Explaining his views on the dominance of some recipients at the awards, Sampson described it as a positive signal for the industry.
“This shows that some of the models and the service providers are ready for the long run because to excel in different aspects of modelling within the same year is not just a show of versatility but also interest, and this is good for modelling in Ghana; because interest is what sustains something and professional modelling in Ghana needs it now more than ever”, he said.
Touching on the challenges faced in organising the event, Sampson expressed appreciation to individuals and stakeholders who supported the awards this year.
“I personally want to thank Mr Herbert Goodman from the United States of America for stepping in to ensure that most of our financial challenges were absorbed. It’s such kind acts that sometimes keep the ship sailing through the storm. I sincerely appreciate him and say a big ayekoo on behalf of the Ghana Models Awards Secretariat. It was really tough looking at the absence of cash sponsorship this year. But, it has been made possible once again”, he said.
