#CODED-ish News::Sonia Ike Appointed As New Miss Black Africa UK 2013 As Winner Is Disqualified

10:23 AM

The beauty pageant held just weeks ago, but they are saying they have disqualified the winner due to pageant terms and 19-year old Sonia Ike from Imo State is now the reigning queen. Read their press statement below;

The Miss Black Africa UK finals took place on the 5th of October with the judging panel made up of Ini Edo, Adebayo Jones, Sporah Njau, Jenni Steele and Kunle Lawani. The Miss Black Africa pageant is the largest ethnic pageant in the UK, with over a thousand applications received in 2013. Miss Black Africa is also the current holder of the BEFFTA Best Beauty Pageant in the UK Award.


Miss Black Africa pageant director Dele Onabowu said " I am sure that the girls in question did not try to flout the rules. This is a case of failing to read our terms and conditions when applying. Our online application form makes it impossible to submit your entry without first confirming that you have read and understood our terms and conditions. Next to the checkbox is a link to our terms and conditions. The Miss Black Africa organisation takes it's rules, terms and conditions very seriously. This is an unfortunate incident for everyone involved but we have to move on from this point".

As a result of this development, the 2nd runner up, Sonia Ike from Nigeria has been crowned the new Miss Black Africa UK, Alexalyn Owuadey from Ghana - 1st Runner Up and Tara Daviess the 2nd Runner Up.

19 year  Old Sonia Ike has now been crowned and says that she can't wait to start her charity project in Nigeria. The 6ft 1 model is from Imo State, Nigeria.
