The victory marked a welcome conclusion to the tournament for Coach Otto Addo's team, who had lost 2-1 to the Super Eagles of Nigeria in the semifinal on Wednesday.
Captain Jordan Ayew set the tone early, scoring the opening goal in the 6th minute with a beautifully struck left-foot shot. Razak Simpson doubled the lead just six minutes later, heading home Ayew's corner kick.
The Black Stars continued to dominate, and Mohammed Fuseini made it 3-0 just before halftime, scoring with a precise finish after a one-two with Jordan Ayew.
In the second half, Otto Addo introduced fresh legs to inject more energy into the side, bringing on Felix Afena Gyan, Majeed Ashimeru, and Abdul Aziz Issah.
Midfielder Lawrence Agyekum, who had started in place of the injured regulars, sealed the win with a debut goal in the 58th minute.
Despite Trinidad's late attempts to breach the Ghanaian defense, Lawrence Ati-Zigi held firm in goal, and the Black Stars saw out the game without conceding.
