their civic responsibility by voting wisely. She also shares her
beauty pageant experience. Excerpts.
Congratulations on your emergence as
Miss Green and White Nigeria, kindly share your experience during the contest?
Thank you, I am Faith Oyindamola
Oyegbola, I’m 16 years old, from Ogun State.
It was actually my first time to participate in a beauty contest. In the contest, I had the opportunity to learn a lot of things, being with girls older than me, having different characters, from different family back ground, it was very challenging, I must confess. Besides, all the girls were beautiful and intelligent, it wasn’t easy at all. I am glad I won. By and large, it was fun; the camp activities, the event proper, seminars, sports, showcasing sports wear on stage and other interesting activities, it was very innovative. I really commend the organisers Lady Juliet Geoffrey of 2Side Modeling Concepts for giving young women such an opportunity.

How did you hear of the competition?
Actually, I got the information about Miss Green and White Nigeria online, through Facebook, I also came across the fliers. The moment I saw it on several links, I got interested because, I was
actually looking for opportunity of such. I decided to give it a trial, prayed and did my best in the competition.

What are your plans as Miss Green
and White?
Well, I am working on couple of programmes to sensitise the youth on their roles in the society, how we can protect the image of our dear country Nigeria, staying out of violence and not to be used by anybody as a tool of destruction.

I’m a peace loving person, adding to
the slogan of the pageant that says “Peace & Unity” I’ve been working
tirelessly, also convening messages to youths, running campaigns through
the social media on the need for Nigerians to embrace peace and show love to
one another. Most importantly elections are going on in the country, we all
have to be wise and vote peacefully.
Nigeria is having the challenge of
security, how do you promote peace in the country?Yeah! Security is a global problem, not only Nigeria is facing this problem but that does not mean we should keep silent. Things are happening everywhere in the world but we have to voice out in so doing, people will have ideas on how to combat the insecurity challenges in the country.
I will use my position as a beauty queen to air my voice through the media and otherwise.
How will you discourage youth from
violence?
The Great Nigeria Youth! The
Future of Nigeria!!
Please Say No to violence.
Please Say No to violence.
How do you balance your reign as a
queen with your education?
Right now I have all the time and am about to get into a higher institution, I study most of the time anyway.
