Agbani Darego The Beauty Queen That Changed Black African History

Please Subscribe: goo.gl/tdx8Qs
in 2001, Darego was crowned Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria, a pageant organized by Silverbird. A few months later she was a contestant at Miss Universe, and became the first Nigerian to place among the top 10 semi-finalists, finishing seventh overall. She was the only top ten contestants to wear a modest maillot as opposed to a revealing bikini during the swimsuit competition.
In November of that year, she became the first Indigenous African to claim the Miss World title (Past winners Penelope Coelen and Anneline Kriel, both of South Africa, are of European descent, and Antigone Costanda, who represented Egypt in 1954 is of Greek heritage). I caught up with her, and we spoke about her journey so far, life about pageants, family, business, and dealing with the press
A most importantly marriage

She’s still got it, is sad modern Nigerian queens haven’t been able to match or surpass her success. Nigeria needs to do better in producing beauty queens 🙏🏾
