Challenge Reality TV winner receives TATA Safari

The British Council Ghana officially handed over a TATA Safari vehicle to Jojo Chartei Quansah, the proud winner of the Challenge Reality TV Show Season 1, as the final part of his prize.

Jojo emerged as the winner in the keenly contested maiden-edition of the show, and has also benefitted from a full-board scholarship from the University of Westminster valued at £40,000, a living allowance and a brand-new laptop computer.

Since his return to Ghana, Jojo has been pursuing a successful career as the Loyalty & Business Intelligence Manager at Millicom Ghana Limited (TiGo).

Present to witness the vehicle presentation were Jojo’s family, representatives from TiGo and CharterHouse, British Council staff-members and members of the media.

Jojo Chartei Quansah, on receiving the car keys at the ceremony said: “I believe that I have become a truly global person with a UK education. I always tell people that I discovered the world by studying in the UK.”

Moses Anibaba, Director of the British Council, described Jojo as an excellent ambassador for Ghana in every way, and was proud to have him associated with the British Council brand.

Diana Yanney, Corporate Affairs and Education UK Manager who spoke on the significance of the initiative, said “Education UK is about the quality and value of our education, it is also about the contribution British Council makes globally and the strength of the partnerships we build. These partnerships go a long way to deepening Ghana-UK intercultural, educational and business relations. We believe that the Challenge will give many people an opportunity to experience the best of the UK through education.”

The Challenge Reality Show was initiated by the British Council through its education portal, Education UK, to offer brilliant Ghanaian university graduates the opportunity to study under a full scholarship at four leading universities in the UK. Other partners include the Cellular network Tigo, University of Westminster and CharterHouse Ghana.

The Challenge Reality Show is scheduled to return to Ghanaian screens later this year.
