Born to Mr. Aseere Moses and Mrs. Akayeti Faustina, Augustina’s life has been a story of leadership, community service, and academic excellence.

From an early age, Augustina demonstrated her leadership potential. She completed her primary education at Building Greatness International School, where she was elected Senior Girls’ Prefect during the 2013/2014 academic year.

Currently, Augustina is a Level 300 student at Savannah College of Education (SAVCOE) in Daboya, pursuing a Bachelor of Education degree in Early Grade Education. She holds several key leadership roles within the institution, including the General Secretary of the Student Representative Council (SRC) and the inaugural President of the Debate Club. In addition, she serves as the General Secretary of the Upper East Students’ Union and the Deputy Communications Director for the Tertiary Education Institution Network (TEIN) – SAVCOE chapter.

A goal-oriented and compassionate young woman, Augustina has a deep passion for supporting humanity and uplifting others. Her decision to contest for Miss Upper East Ghana 2024 stems from her desire to create a platform where she can not only showcase her talents but also promote the rich cultural heritage of her people. Speaking about her reasons for joining the competition, she shared, “I have always wanted a platform where I can showcase my talents, sell out the rich cultural heritage of my people, and empower the young ones to believe in themselves. I want to create a culture of inclusivity where everyone feels valued. Becoming Miss Upper East Ghana will provide the right forum for me to actualize these visions.”

Out of over 25 contestants in the auditions, Augustina emerged as one of the 16 finalists competing for the coveted 7th crown of Miss Upper East Ghana.
