WONDERING WHY THOSE FROM THE VOLTA REGION ARE CALLED NO 9 ?

The people from the volta Region are often called  No 9 .I use to wonder why and how they are refered to as no 9 until i came across a published article from the daily graphic explaining why our fellow kinsmen are popularly know as no 9

"Ghana's first Miss Ghana (1957), Monica Amekoafia. She represented then Trans Volta Togoland (Volta Region) and was the 9th contestant. A crowd favourite, she will forever go down in history as the woman on whose ticket people from the Volta Region earned the 'Number 9' nickname."
