Check out the Beauty Queens Contesting for the Miss Universe Nigeria Crown
The first-ever Miss Universe Nigeria contest, put together by the Silverbird Group, has just kicked off.
In the past, the MBGN winner usually went on to represent Nigeria at Miss World, while the first runner-up got the Miss Universe crown. But now, Miss Universe Nigeria is branching out and standing on its own.
The Miss Universe Nigeria competition will have a unique approach compared to the MBGN pageant. The eligibility criteria have also been broadened, allowing for contestants who are single, married, single mothers, or divorced. Additionally, potential contestants can come in any size, whether slender or plus-sized and must be between the ages of 18 and 28.
The maiden edition kicked off this September, and the ladies are getting into all kinds of activities leading up to the big finale. The winner gets to win prizes, including a car, cash, endorsement deals, and the chance to represent Nigeria on the international stage at Miss Universe, happening in El Salvador this December.
