Her skin is proof

But she’s like so adorable

this is magic

who. is. she.

That’s Hamamat Montia! (Her name is actually spelled incorrectly above.) She’s a Ghanaian supermodel and the 2006 winner of Miss Malaika Ghana, a Ghanaian beauty pageant and reality TV show.

(Blast from the past on that last one… Hamamat winning her Miss Malaika crown in 2006!)

In addition to her job as a model, Hamamat is an entrepreneur and activist. She’s the founder of Africa Eats Now, an organization committed to reducing malnutrition throughout Africa.

She also just recently launched a series of children’s books, Zuzu & Sasa, which tells the story of two Ghanaian sisters whose adventure throughout Africa discovering magic, gaining self-confidence, and learning about African culture and history.

I believe she’s now moved back to Ghana after being away for a while. In the videos, she’s visiting her family in Tamale in the Northern Region of Ghana. (Shea butter is a suuuuper important product for many communities in that region.)

She’s also a mum and has two little ones of her own. :3

In conclusion, Hamamat is a stunning and very accomplished Ghanaian woman!

For more about Hamamat’s visit to Tamale, you can check out her instagram here or this article. For more of the Accra photoshoot (the one with Hamamat in front of the Ghanaian flag motorway pillar) check out this one.

Hope that helps! :3
