Award-winning media personality and communications professional Ephyia Stade Edna has vowed to intensify her work and double her impact after being honoured as the Triumph Media Personality of the Year at the 2026 Triumph Women Awards.
Edna received the prestigious recognition at the third edition of the Triumph Women Awards, held on Sunday, September 27, 2026, at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel in Accra, under the theme “Rewarding Champions.”
The award recognised her contributions to media, communication, storytelling, and public engagement, as well as her continued involvement in women and youth empowerment.
But for Edna, the recognition is not simply a moment to celebrate. It is a renewed call to work harder.
“This means a lot of work. And this means that there’s more to be done,” she said after receiving the award.
“This means that I am not going to sleep. I am definitely going to continue. And this time, I am doubling everything that I used to do.”
‘It’s such a great honour’
Reacting to the recognition, Edna described the award as a significant honour and an encouragement to continue making a difference.
“It’s such a great honour to have an award like this,” she said.
She noted that the importance of the Triumph Women Awards went beyond the presentation of plaques and titles, saying the initiative provided a platform to empower women and encourage them to create meaningful impact.
“An award that empowers people to do more, to impact others as well,” she said.
Edna said she had followed the awards scheme for some time and had witnessed its contribution to recognising women who were making a difference.
“I have known this award scheme for some time now. I’ve followed them, and I know their impact. They empower women, and through them, people are making it out there,” she said.
‘Keep doing what you’re doing’
The media personality used the occasion to encourage professionals and young people not to abandon their ambitions simply because their efforts may not receive immediate recognition.
According to her, people should remain committed to their purpose and continue making an impact, whether or not they are being watched.
“Wherever you are, you need to do what you’re doing. It doesn’t matter whether people are watching or people are not,” she said.
“Just know that I am doing this because I want to do it because I am impacting. And somehow, somehow, people are watching without you knowing. And when the time is right, definitely, you’ll be acknowledged.”
For Edna, her latest recognition reinforces that philosophy and demonstrates that consistent work can eventually receive recognition.
Gratitude to supporters
The award recipient expressed gratitude to everyone who supported her journey and believed in the value of her work.
“I would love to say thank you to everybody who saw the vision, who saw the positive in everything, like what I am doing,” she said.
She also thanked those who voted for her.
“Everybody who voted, I am really grateful to you all,” she added.
Edna further encouraged others to continue pursuing their dreams and making a positive difference wherever they found themselves.
“Wherever you are, do well and shine. And you will be acknowledged as well,” she said.
