By the end of February 2024, young adults around the nation will have the chance to speak with Queen Lady Nana Yaa Nsarko, the 2023 Miss Malaika Ghana, one-on-one as she launches her campaign to raise awareness of HIV/AIDS prevention by coming to people’s doorsteps.
The “Live On Campaign with Miss Malaika Ghana 2023” effort is aimed at young adolescents who attend school and those who do not. The intended audience will witness the newly crowned Beauty Queen interacting with young teenagers and taking advantage of the occasion to teach them about HIV/AIDS prevention.
Additionally, she would exhort young teenagers to use testing and counseling facilities.
Queen Lady Nsarko who is an Ambassador of the Ghana AIDS Commission, together with her team from Miss Malaika Ghana and other HIV/AIDS experts from NACP would embark on this HIV/AIDS prevention campaign across various communities in the country, especially, the red flag zones where the HIV virus is prevalent.
She would take the campaign to schools, churches, mosques, markets, shopping malls, taxi ranks, lorry stations, bus terminals, and other public places where head porters popularly called Kayayeis are.
The Beauty Queen has since her unveiling as HIV/AIDS prevention Ambassador, been under training at the National AIDS/STI Control Programme, preparing assiduously for this project which aims among other things to sustain the gains made in the fight against the HIV/AIDS and to help to reduce further, the number of new cases.
In an interview with the journalist’s moments after the media launch of ART@20 on Friday, February 16, 2024, this is what she said “I can’t wait to see the start of this project to enable me to share the knowledge I have acquired with my peers out there. I am so excited to serve my country, Ghana, on a bigger platform that has been provided to me by the kind courtesy of the Ghana AIDS Commission which has truly made a remarkable achievement in the fight against HIV/AIDS”.
