SIKEOLA OLOWE wins SISI OGE beauty pageant, 2012...........am 21 years old from Osun State. I studied Banking and Finance at Babcock University, I also hold a masters in International Business Management from Bradford University in the United Kingdom. I am into network marketing, hotel management and event planning.Why I went for a beauty pageant
I am a lover of culture, which Sisi Oge is all about. Besides, I was encouraged to go for it because I knew there won’t be a swim suit segment. It’s not as if I am ashamed of my body but as a Yoruba lady, my culture does not permit that.My challenges in camp as a contestantWe were all unique in our own ways, so it was not like I was scared of anybody. I put in my best and allowed God crown my efforts with success which he did. While on stage? I almost passed out! I was very nervous but I had to put up a brave face. I remember requesting for water because I was hot inside me. There were several tense moments. Maybe if I had participated in a pageant before this, I might have been able to handle it better. Thank God I did not allow my uneasiness to get the better of me. I was so uncomfortable that I did not even hear them announce my name. But when I saw my mother and aunt jumping, it dawned on me that I had won.FashionI try as much as possible not to mix a lot of colours together when I am dressed. I am not a daring person, so I rarely experiment with clothes. I love shoes and I have lots of them. I don’t have any favourite designers but the shoes must be fantastic.Life as Sisi-OgeI am going to be Afro-centric in my dressing and at the same time, I am not going to be far away from western attire. There is a way in which I can create a blend between the two. My pet project? I want to impart knowledge about our culture into young children. It’s going to be a catch-them-young project. It is codenamed, triple C. It means Children cultural centre. It’s a platform that would include an entertainment centre where kids can learn about African values and heritage.Beauty and fitnessI just wake up in the morning, have my shower, moisturise, cleanse and I am off. I use Clarins and Clinique products. To keep fit, I don’t do a lot of things. I just try to eat the right food and in the right quantity. I rarely workout at home, I think I had enough of that in camp.Social lifeI like to hang out with my friends, go to the movies and I love discovering restaurants. I like to taste food, so I make it a habit to visit restaurants.My dreamAt the beginning of this year, I never envisaged that I would participate in a pageant let alone win it. I pray that God help me in this new venture.
