The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts is very disappointed and angry at the organizers of Miss Supranational Ghana – for using the ministry’s name as one of its sponsors of the pageant without any official memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the two parties; GhanaCelebrities.Com has gathered.

GhanaCelebrities.Com reported on Monday, 28th July, 2014, that allegations reaching us have it that Miss Supranational Ghana could be doing something wrong against its contestants – who allegedly live in fear and timidity in a hotel they are housed at Weija for grooming.

Though we gave the organizers the chance to either confirm or deny the allegations reaching us, they declined. Sensing evil against the contestants, GhanaCelebrities.Com exercised our civic responsibility by reporting the case to the police who have assured us that they shall clamp down on the organizers premises – not to harass them or intimidate them, but to seek explanations regarding the allegations against the organizers.

On Wednesday, 4 June 2014, Ghanaweb published a story on the pageant. In the said publication, the organizer of Miss Supranational Ghana indicated a number of its supporters and included in it, was the Ministry of Tourism. Below is an excerpt of the story (unedited):

“Miss Supranational is brought to you by Lilys House Entertainment and supported by the Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Youth and Sports, Viasat 1 Ghana, Cypress Ghana, 4syte TV, Fotostore, Busy Internet & Sweeties Lounge.

For more enquiries, contact 0244546055 / 0231199525. Miss Supranational… Truly Global, Truly Supranational!!!”

GhanaCelebrities.Com checked from The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts and our findings were that, Madam Lillian Boateng once visited the ministry and introduced her pageant to them but they did not sign any formal memorandum of understanding –giving Madam Lillian Boateng the power and authority to include the ministry’s name in any of the various mass media – websites, blogs, print, television, radio, posters, banners, etc. as a sponsor or supporter of the pageant.

Madam Lillian visited the ministry sometimes ago, left and promised of coming again for final talks but never shown up. In the face of the scandalous allegations against the pageant and the organizers inability to deny or confirm, the ministry is therefore going to either sue the organizers or issue a press release – distancing itself from Miss Supranational Ghana.

According to what we learnt from the ministry, usually when any event organizer comes to them to officially request the ministry to partner with whatever the fellow is bringing on board, the ministry does its independent background checks on the person and after they are satisfied and convinced with the potentials of the concept and the credibility of the organizer(s), they give out what they call ENDORSEMENT LETTER to the organizer to enable the latter get sponsors – but that did not happen in the case of Miss Supranational Ghana.
