The Miss Nigeria beauty pageant has unveiled the semi-finalists for its 2024 edition.
The 45th edition of Miss Nigeria had earlier introduced 45 contestants to participate in the pageant.
But on Tuesday, the organisers announced the top 20 semi-finalists in an Instagram post.
The grand finale will be held on Tuesday at the Royal Box Event Centre (Mikano Building) in Victoria Island, Lagos.
Yemi Alade and KCee, the music stars, are expected to thrill the audience at the event.
“Nigeria! We present you the Top 20 semi-finalists for the #45thmissnigeria. These semi-finalists have worked hard to earn their spot in the journey to the crown,” the post reads.
Rita Dominic, the actress and chairman of Miss Nigeria, said this year’s edition will focus on “fostering national unity by celebrating our diverse cultural heritage”.
“We aim to empower young women to actively shape a positive social landscape, promoting unity and responsibility among Nigerians,” she said.

In October last year, Dominic succeeded her husband Fidelis Anosike, as the organiser of the Miss Nigeria.
This was after Anoskie’s Folio Communications, which founded the beauty pageant, passed the torch to TASC, owned by Dominic and film director Mildred Okwo.
