It’s a moment of pride for Ghanaians both at home and abroad as Ghana’s Afronitaa and Abigail qualify for the finals of this year’s Britain’s Got Talent on Sunday, June 2.
Before the new season of Britain’s Got Talent officially began, popular dancer Afronitaa increased the anticipation of Ghanaians with a teaser of the show. Afronitaa has been exciting Ghanaians with their performances since early May when they qualified for the show. They have upheld the hopes of Ghanaians and Africans who have been relentless in their support.
Afronitaa and Abigail performed a medley of popular hits, including Fuse ODG’s “Azonto,” Beyoncé’s “Run The World,” and Toofan’s “Gweta.” The roars from the Eventim Apollo audience were so loud that judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli could barely hear themselves give feedback.
Abigail and Afronitaa earned a place in the final along with the choir Northants Sings Out. Shortly after their semifinals performance, Britain’s Got Talent posted on Instagram reels, “Your votes have sent Abigail and Afronitaa straight to the finals. Congratulations.”
This is great news for Ghana’s creative and tourism industry as the nation awaits the finals on Sunday. Afronitaa and Abigail are making history for Ghana, showcasing the country’s rich cultural heritage and talent on an international platform.
Afronitaa, who joined DWP Academy, a popular dancing group, at age 14 in 2018, recently announced her exit from the group. Abigail, a 7-year-old deaf and mute girl who emerged victorious in Season 14 of TV3’s Talented Kidz, and Afronitaa have formed a strong bond in the last few months, making Ghana proud.
The call to the bar is pursuant to Section 7 of the Legal Profession Act, 1960 (Act 32), which states that the General Legal Council shall from time to time hold formal meetings at which duly qualified applicants shall be enrolled and called to the bar. The Council may at their discretion dispense with the formalities under this section in any particular case. The event was witnessed by friends, family, and well-wishers of the inductees.
Chief Justice Gertrude Torkornoo led the new lawyers in taking the oath of the legal profession and declaring an undertaking to practice according to the prescribed code of conduct and rules. Present at the event were Deputy Attorney-General Diana Asonaba Dapaah, President of the Ghana Bar Association Yaw Acheampong Boafo, Director of the Ghana School of Law Barima Yaw Kodie Oppong, and other superior court judges.
The Chief Justice admonished the fresh lawyers not to take shortcuts in the pursuit of justice for their clients, emphasizing that proper preparation and a high level of expertise are required to deliver quality justice.
