I’m married with two kids but it won’t stop me - Ghana Most Beautiful contestant
Eastern Regional contestant for this year’s
Ghana’s Most Beautiful, Akos, says marriage and
raising children should not be a barrier to a
woman’s progress in life.

Akos who is married with two children, told 3FM
Wednesday that she hopes to win the covetous GMB
crown to demonstrate her point.

“I believe in multi tasking and I am so blessed
because my husband also believes marriage isn’t
a barrier to doing anything in life,” she told
Miriam Osei Agyemang, host of 3FM’s mid-morning
show, Urban Blend, on Wednesday.

This was when she and Hiba, Northern Regional
contestant appeared on the show to share their
experiences and also to talk about the pageant,
which is in its 10th year.

“Society has made marriage look like a box
where you get into it and you need to lock
yourself and not come out but it shouldn’t be
like that because times have changed,” Akos
observed.

She said due to this perception, a lot of young
graduates nowadays want to get everything in life
and finish their masters degree before they
consider marriage.

“There are so many young girls like myself and
it’s for this reason that so many university
graduates and young girls, want to finish their
masters, attain everything in life before they
settle down but I don’t believe in that
perception. Life is all about planning” she
said

Akos added: “The fact that I’m married
doesn’t mean I have to be indoors because for
all you know I may be a destiny helper to
somebody.”
