The competition, organised by Channel One TV in partnership with Citi FM and sponsored by Deli, Tema Oil Refinery, SIC Insurance, Prospectus Ghana and Advocate Publishing, saw the Volta trio outperform their counterparts across all disciplines.
With the win, Volta will continue its campaign in the contest while Upper West has been eliminated from the 2026 edition.
