Ms Prisca Abah

Accra, Ghana, November 7, 2018//-Ghanaian top model Ms Prisca Abah is poised to put Africa and Ghana on world’s modeling map within the next years.

The Accra-based versatile model who disclosed this in an interview said: “I see myself representing Ghana and Africa not just as a model but as an ambassador for young fresh African talent. I believe we’ve got so much more to offer the international fashion industry and I would love to be a pioneer for that”.

Ms Abah who won several awards within a short stint modeling career maintained that she has all it takes to achieve her vision of taking the African continent to the global modeling industry.

I have the attitude, experience, tenacity of purpose, among others to achieve this vision, Ms Abah told African Eye Report during the interview. This vision motivated her to venture into the Ghanaian modeling industry at a tender age.

 To this end, she stated: “As a child I always felt shy as I never looked like the other girls but as I grew, I became more comfortable and confident with my body and my look.

I would try and recreate looks of my icons including Rihanna, a popular U.S-based artiste and share my pictures with my friends and family until one day I was fortunate enough to be scouted by a modeling agency”.

“For me being a model is more than just cat-walks and photo shoots. It’s a platform for me to promote and be an ambassador of things close to my heart like charity work and mentoring for upcoming models”, Ms Abah added.

Advice

Ms Abah used the opportunity to advice young models across the continent to create their own looks and desist from imitating well-established models.

In her own words: “Find what style suits and compliment your face, size and complexion. With high quality camera phones it’s now easy to get someone to take some good pictures of you which you can then share on social media and get feedback from.  That’s always a good start before searching for an agency”.
