With so many Most Beautiful Girl pageants coming up in Nigeria, its no surprise that there are two or more most beautiful girl competitions going on in Lagos this year.

On May 31st there was the rather interesting Most Beautiful Girl Lagos 2015 organised by Royhills. Some may not agree with me, but I found it interesting. Though it was clearly unrehearsed, it somehow managed through all its hiccups; from the jumbled up national anthem we had to listen to in confusion, to absent hosts, to the absent jester, to several awkward stage moments, to guest judge Uti walking off, to the half naked young man on stage, to several wardrobe mishaps, and finally to the crowning of a Queen. Miss Victoria Island was crowned Queen, and most of the other contestants were displeased with the result as usual.  The typical bumbling here and there to an epic end.

As it turns out, yet another Most Beautiful Girl is about to emerge from Lagos in September. Most Beautiful Girl Eko 2015, to be organised by Ereon Pageantry. Lets see how that will turn out and which of the two Silverbird will acknowledge as queen and permit to represent Lagos at the Most Beautiful Girl Nigeria pageant. I’ll keep you posted.
