The undergraduate from the University of Ghana faced stiff competition from nine other pretty and intelligent ladies who all showed potential to wear the crown.
The winner was rather under controversial circumstances as majority of the audience thought the crown should have gone to Alexander who espoused brains with beauty.
For the first time in many years there was a tie between two ladies - Gerry and Alex - which sparked a lot of boos when the announcement was made.
To break the tie the two ladies had to answer the deciding question and yet again Alex was quite phenomenal with her answer.
Someway somehow the judges managed to name Gerry winner of the pageant which left a sour taste in the mouth of many.
This is the second year in a row that the declaration of the winner of the Miss Malaika pageant has been shrouded in controversy.
So as it stands Gerry is Miss Malaika 2011, Alexander, first runner-up and Deborah (Smallie) second runner-up.
For her prize, Gerry takes home a KIA saloon car, GH¢ 6,000, wax prints from ATL, a trip to South Africa amongst others.
Emmanuella won the Ms. Talent session and Magdalene was named Ms Congeniality.
One thing the show would definitely be remembered for is the entertainment bit where Ghana’s fastest rapper Sarkodie tore the stage apart with ‘U go kill me’ and his collaboration with Efya ‘I’m in love with you now’.
Funny Face helped him out with the 'azonto dance'.
Other entertainers for the night were R2Bees who got almost everybody screaming ‘Agyeiii’, their latest single.
Stay J and Dr. Sid from Nigeria also played their part in entertaining the audience.
