Hannatu Musawa, Minister of art and Culture, has urged Nigerians to vote for Tamunosoye Karibi-George, popularly known as Soye, as she competes in the latter stages of the 73rd Miss World contest.
Karibi-George was recently named Africa’s Top Model at the
ongoing Miss World 2026 pageant in Vietnam and also secured a place in the
competition’s Top 40.
The contest finale is scheduled for September 5.
In a post on X, the minister praised Karibi-George for her
performance and called on Nigerians to support her as the pageant enters its
decisive stages.
“Dear Soye, seeing you carry Nigeria’s name with such grace,
confidence and purpose on the Miss World stage has made us incredibly proud,”
she wrote.
“Emerging as Africa’s Top Model and securing your place in
the Top 40 is a remarkable achievement. But beyond the competition, you have
used this platform to showcase Nigeria to the world, speak about issues that
truly matter, and inspire so many young people.
“Nigerians continue to stand with you. There are just nine
hours left to vote, and the window is closing fast.”
Musawa also shared a voting link, urging Nigerians to vote
for Karibi-George and encourage others to do the same.
“Soye needs every vote and every point matters for the
stages ahead. Voting link in my bio. Please, let’s come together, vote, share
and encourage others to do the same. Queen Soye, Nigeria is behind you,” she
wrote.
Karibi-George was crowned Miss World Nigeria 2026 on June 5
after defeating 36 other contestants in a competition held in Nigeria.
In 2001, Agbani Dorego became the first and only Nigerian to
win Miss World.
