THE MAKING OF THE QUEEN will see our 36 contestants enter into the special Miss Nigeria House where they will undergo grooming and preparation for the role of Miss Nigeria. Eliminations will take place during this period as we whittle down to the “21 most suitable ladies”. The 21 ladies will then go on to compete for the Miss Nigeria crown at the Grand finale where a winner will be chosen based on elegance, poise, talent, intelligence and beauty.

Created in 1957, The Miss Nigeria beauty pageant has discovered and made beauty queens such as Grace Oyelude, Julie Coker, Helen Prest Ajayi, Binta Sukai, Vien Tetsola, Sylva Edem, Ene Lawani and Damilola Agbajor into household names.
