Ahanataman Girls 2023 School Prefect installed like a queen

Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that the Ahantaman Girls Senior High School swore into office the Head Girl for the 2023/2024 academic year.

At the ceremony, the Head Girl dressed like a traditional Ghanaian queen and held a sword as she took her oath of office.

After she took the oath, Natasha was placed on a stool; as a symbol of her ascension to the School Prefect 'throne'

She later read the acceptance speech as the leader of all the prefects of the 2023/2024 academic year.

One female student was holding an umbrella over Natasha’s head all through the ceremony, while another walked close to her like a linguist.
