Excerpts.....Opecareem:
Whao congratulations. So what was going through your mind seconds before they called your name as the winner?
Jaydon:
I was very nervous, although it was so close it still felt far away and the lady who announced it made it feel like forever building the suspense.
Opecareem:
You walked straight down the runway immediately your name was called out, without your sash placed on you. how did it feel when you were called as winner ?
Jaydon:
It was a dream come true and I just felt so thankful I still am.
Opecareem:
Did you ever have it at the back of your mind that you would ever win this ?
Jaydon:
To tell the truth no. The other guys I was competing against we're all greatcontenders. I'm a big believer in Law of Attraction, I just kept visualising myself winning and I did.
Mister Africa Int'l and Ayotunde TwitchOpecareem:

Opecareem:
Now you mentioned to me earlier that you wanted the platform to change lives , whats the plan now that you are Mister Africa International ?
Jaydon:

No, I pride myself on being a down to earth friendly guy. Winning has allows me to start making a difference to children's lives and has given mea voice.
