The venue for this historic event is the National Theatre, Accra and the time is 2pm prompt.
About the old frame
In 1999, Angelina Nana Akua Oduro’s photo was unveiled as the face for the Akwaaba portraits.
The iconic Akwaaba photo was taken in 1999 when she was a teenager, and has broken all records in the Ghanaian modelling industry.
Nana Akua’s divine achievement is so legendary that even Ghanaian models yet unborn would struggle to match the record she has set.
The Akwaaba picture is popularly recognized by Ghanaians across the World as a true representation of Ghana’s hospitality to foreigners.
Arguably the most popular model in Ghana, Angelina Nana Akua Oduro became a household name over two decades ago featuring several collectibles like special calendars, bags, dresses, gift items, and many more.
The iconic image, widely recognized as a symbol of Ghana’s hospitality (Akwaaba), features Nana Akua adorn in regal Ghana Kente while holding a calabash with a flashing smile.
