CONTROVERSY TRAILS THE NEW MBGN QUEEN – ISABELLA AYUK
representing Nigeria
at the Miss World Beauty Pageant. This latest statement signed by the Vice
President of Silverbird Group, Guy Murray Bruce has stirred up controversies.
Nigeria (MBGN) beauty pageant, controversies arose about her true age.
Some alleged that Isabella was over aged and not 26 she claimed to be. While
others claimed she won the crown because of her connection to some prominent
personalities in the society.
Contrary to the latest buzz about Isabella Ayuk that she was dethroned,
Silverbird representative, Mr Alozie, told Nigeriafilms.com in a telephone
conversation that Isabella is still the winner of MBGN and as such, still wears
the crown.
He said that Isabella would only not be at the Miss World contest holding in China
in August 2012.
Asked to comment on the purported leaked statement from Gay Bruce on the issue,
he claimed an impostor may have written it.
Commenting on why Isabella would not be representing Nigeria
at the Miss World Beauty pageant, Alozie said Isabella would not be going to
the pageant due to her personal reasons.
On what the personal reasons are, he said Isabella’s programme for the year
would not rhyme with when the pageant would hold in August. He claimed that
Isabella would only be free to attend the Miss Universe contest later in the
year, which she would now represent Nigeria
in.
