2019 MGBN Queen Plans To Rule Fashion, Modelling World
The feeling of winning the pageant is still new to the queen as she’s still living in the moment but we can say she’s putting plans in place to take over the fashion and modelling world.
In an extensive chat with the beauty queen, she spoke about how she started her modelling career and her future in the fashion industry.
The first question Nyekachi was asked about her lifestyle was when she started her modelling career professionally.
“It would be when I came to Nigeria. Back in school, all the modelling jobs I did in school, I volunteered. I spent four years of my life volunteering for every fashion show I can find.” She said.
The beauty queen mentioned that she came to Nigeria so she can do it for the culture despite modelling in the U.S.
“I love my family and i like being close to my family. I had to come back home because it’s different when i’m doing it here than doing it there. The joy of doing this for my country cannot be quantified and the difference is amazing when i’m doing it for my country.” She said enthusiastically.
When Nyekachi was crowned, she spoke about the challenges she went through before she could participate in the beauty pageant. In the interview, she highlighted the challenges and how she surmounted them.

“On my journey here, I tried to plan everything in details. From the dresses, shoes and the designers that I will be wearing but the funds i was expecting to do this all this didn’t come through as planned. That made me very sad because I put too much effort to get everything to look A1 and to be A1. It’s also made me not want to go on because I want to go when it’s perfect. But I realized i’ll never be ready enough so i just need to go for it and stop being my own stumbling block.” She said passionately.
We also asked Nyekachi that one accessory she can’t live without. You would be shocked at her response.
“Actually, it’s my natural hair but clearly now i’m living without it. But i really like when i have my natural hair on.” She giggled.
On her modelling career, Nyekachi highlighted some designers she’ll like to work with and her plans for the future after her reign as the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria.
“I’ll really like to work with Mai Atafo, Balmain, Versace and I see myself doing the Victoria Secret fashion show. I hope they don’t stop it.
They better not stop before I get on it”. She said.
Also the beauty queen expressed her love for fashion and her plans to take over the fashion industry. She was asked about her future in fashion designing and what she wants to do in fashion.
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
