A pharmacist, Odinachi Chiji-Okoye, has emerged the winner of the sixth Face of Candy City beauty pageant.
The graduate of pharmacy from Madonna University beat 40 other contestants at the event held at the Astoria Event Centre, Lekki, Lagos State, recently.
“It feels so great. This is my first-ever pageant and emerging winner is like a check in my checklist. It feels super amazing. To be honest, there was competition and a lot of beautiful girls that would definitely keep you on your toes were here. I tried my best and I hoped to at least be the top three. God willing, I won,” she said.
Speaking on her next moves, Chiji-Okoye said: “I will definitely focus on pushing my brand out there and focus on achieving some of the humanitarian activities I set out to do with this title as a back-up. I’m hopeful for the year ahead and the future while I work hard as a queen.”
