“INTRODUCTION
The Miss Nigeria Title: Since its inception in 1957, the Miss Nigeria Pageant has stood to represent the highest of ideals, showcasing the positive attributes of the Nigerian woman-Elegance, Poise, Talent, Intelligence as well as Beauty.
Miss Nigeria has always been a role model to young Nigerian ladies and a spokesperson for national volunteerism and charity, while using her title to educate the nation on issues of importance to her and the society at large. The Miss Nigeria Competition 2011, once again had no swimwear segment and our young ladies were judged on poise, intelligence, cultural values as well as beauty. Qualities that every family would be proud to see their daughters, sisters and mothers possess.
Throughout the years, the Miss Nigeria platform has afforded past winners with incredible opportunities within Nigeria and abroad. Miss Nigeria 2011 will be a young lady who reflects the tradition of style, sophistication and service.
Under the stewardship of Chief Adenike Oshinowo-Soleye (Mrs.) AOE events and Entertainment Limited, the new Miss Nigeria Competition infused old world glamour with modern elegance. The Competition evoked a time when beauty had substance and grace as well as respectability; a time when privilege came with responsibility.
