At the pageant competition which took place at the Sheraton Hotels and Towers, Abuja, Nnamani, was adjudged the best of the 36 participants in the grand finale in her category.
The contest was organised by the current Miss United Nations International, Precious Chikwendu, to serve as platform to discover beautiful and intelligent Nigerians to represent the country in the 2015 edition of Miss United Nations Pageant billed for the Jamaican capital, Kingston in July.
The Anambra-born beauty queen said: “The aim of Miss United Nations Nigeria Pageants is to give young women the opportunity to come together in a pageant setting regardless of their background and build relationships with fellow women from across the country that are working diligently to impact positively on their communities.”
She added that: “As Miss United Nations Nigeria, delegates come together and share their community volunteer projects, ideas and goals with one another they become unified as pageant sisters in the United Nations Pageants Family.”
Chiwkendu stated that: “This sisterhood strengthens them to see beyond their immediate surroundings and situations and extends their services across the globe. As each delegate shares ideas of how she serves her community, more women would be strengthened and edified because their paths have crossed for good.”
Aside Nnamani who clinched Miss United Nations title, other winners include former Nigeria TV presenter, Jacquelyn Madu, who was crowned Miss Teen United Nations 2015.
Others are Tubosoye C. Dokubo, Ms Nigeria United Nations; Kessy Isong, Miss Tourism United Nations, and Enemchukwu Ebelechukwu, Mrs Nigeria United Nations.
Outgoing First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, was represented at the event by Peace Nnaji, who admonished the pageants to be worthy ambassadors of the nation.
She said she believed such pageants would enable contestants develop their personalities and be positioned to passionately and positively impact the society.
Commending the organisers she said Chikwendu has brought honour to Nigeria, “not just by winning Mrs United Nations Pageant but also by going the extra mile of securing hosting rights for the Nigerian version of the pageant.”
