Miss Afrikana International has tapped one of Ghana’s most recognizable public figures to lead its national operations, officially announcing actor, humanitarian, and motivational speaker Majid Michel as the new National Director of Miss Afrikana Ghana.
The appointment represents a significant milestone for an organisation built around empowering women of African descent through leadership, cultural pride, and global representation. For Miss Afrikana International, bringing Michel on board signals a deliberate effort to strengthen its footprint in Ghana while aligning the platform with a figure whose public profile extends well beyond entertainment.
Michel has spent years cultivating a reputation as more than just an actor. He’s become a prominent voice for personal development, social impact work, and humanitarian causes across Africa and internationally — work that has earned him recognition both at home and abroad. That track record, the organisation suggests, made him a natural fit for the values Miss Afrikana International seeks to embody.
What the Role Involves
As National Director, Michel will oversee Ghana’s participation in the international pageant, with responsibilities that go well beyond ceremonial duties. His mandate includes identifying, mentoring, and developing young women who reflect the platform’s core values — leadership, excellence, and cultural pride.
Beyond pageant logistics, Michel is expected to spearhead mentorship programmes, personal development initiatives, community engagement efforts, and advocacy projects aimed at creating lasting societal impact. It’s a role that blends pageantry with the kind of grassroots empowerment work Michel has built much of his public career around.

In its announcement, Miss Afrikana International stated that Michel’s dedication to personal growth, leadership, and social change closely matches its broader mission.
