Miss Victor will represent Nigeria in August 2022, on the world stage where the Miss Teen Global Beauty International 2021, will be held in Paraiba, Brazil, courtesy of an all-expense-paid trip by the official sponsor of MTGBN, Awaritse Nigeria Limited.

 “I feel incredibly happy about winning because it was a tough competition where there were so many great girls but the crown chose me and it chose me for a purpose. It’s more than a prize to me; it’s an opportunity that will change my life for good”, the elated beauty queen said.  

While speaking to the media on how the winners emerged, the National Director of MTGBN, popularly called, “Nigeria’s King of Queens, Mrs Gwendolyn Elohor Tagbarha, noted that in the first edition, 70 per cent of scores were taken right from the auditions, home task assignments, behavioural assessment, hard work, attitude, camp activities were all put together and submitted to the judges while their stage performances during the grand finale have the other half of 30 per cent.

Tagbarha, who is an ex-beauty queen reiterated that the Miss Teen Global Beauty Nigeria brand is a major platform that grooms young girls from the foundation, to become worthy role models, and ambassadors and subsequently become useful to themselves and the society at large.

Adding that when they eventually decide to contest at adult pageant brands, they would have been groomed thoroughly to adequately prepare them to become high flyers in the future.

“I strongly believe that we are truly on the path towards sanitising beauty pageantry in Nigeria and I am super proud to say that Miss Teen Global Beauty Nigeria cemented her place in Nigeria as the biggest and brightest teenage pageant brand, and with God on our side, we shall continue to work to sanitise the system and subsequently change the narratives of pageantry in Nigeria”, she added.
