Later in the pageant, the same contestants showed off their special talents to impress the judges and entertain the cheering people in the audience.
It was also a night of entertainment as musicians, such as Kofi Kinaata, Stonebwoy, Kwaw Kese, and others, delighted the appreciative patrons to their varied Afro-beat songs that got everyone on their feet to dance each time they came on stage.
In the end, the judges and votes decided on the three finalists.
