Nigeria has taken the global beauty queen crown again. Collete Nwadike from Nigeria has been crowned the “Exquisite Face of the Universe 2015”.

In a keenly contested beauty pageant held recently in Sao Tome & Principe, Nwadike made history as the first ever black queen to take the crown.

She beat Miss Germany who was the first runner-up; Miss Angola was the second runner-up; Miss Aruba was the third runner-up, and the host country’s participant, Miss Sao Tome & Principe, was the fourth runner-up.

Nwadike succeeds Susan Castano from Dominican Republic.

The top 10 finalists were USA, Brazil, Sudan, Nigeria, Germany, Cape Verde, Ghana, Angola, Aruba and Sao Tome & Principe.

Nwadike, who had earlier won the award for “Best Evening Gown”, put up a stellar performance to outshine other gorgeous contestants from various countries of the world.
“It’s like a dream come true. I’ve always dreamed of winning an international pageant and here I am, living my dream. I thank God for making this possible. I thank my ever supportive family,” the elated Nwadike said.
