JENNIMMA'S QUESTIONS & ANSWERS


Question 1: Several women have competed in Miss Nairaland competitions in the past. With all the criticism and down-talking of contestants, many potential contenders were discouraged and opted out, but you didn't. Why did you decide to roll with the tide and participate in this edition of Miss Nairaland?

"Its expected for people to voice out their opinions because everyone has the freedom of speech. why should i fret about negative comments? It is their own opinions and they have the right to.make it known and I also have the right to ignore it too. I am beautiful in my mind and I need no one to tell me if i'm or not. And if they do,its a nice
feeling that someone does agree with me..plus i see people agreeing with me thus their votes and thats what i see and smile at. I wish the negative comment makers would desist because we all deal with negativity differently."


Question 2: What gives you an edge over your competition?

"Hmmmm...what gives me an edge? edge,sounds strong like a dangerous weapon. but seriously,I often go through the pictures of all the 14
ladies and smile at how beautiful they are. Umu nwanyi magburu onwe ha na mma (it means-the ladies are beautiful). They did give me a run for
my money...but the edge i've over them is the fact that my campaign team are super awesome#waves# I can't thank them enough.They're like the string in my bow. They believed in me and made sure the stood by me. And the voters, their consistency amazes me. These are my edges, I believe. Edges that i'm grateful for. daalu nnu,ndi ezigbo m!(Welldone, my good people.)"

Question 3: How would a good friend or family member describe you?

A good friend would describe me as intelligent,witty,caring,humrous and hardworking person. well,i must say this is true because i always
strive for the best in everything i do. You can call me a perfectionist.


Question 4: If there was one thing you could improve in Africa or amongst Africans, what would it be? And Why?

"I love being African! i wouldn't change it for anything. Africans are just unique in their own way. I love the diversity in our cultures. It is just awesome. Our cultural heritage should go beyond those artifacts behind glass cases in museums that people hardly visit. Our culture doesn't stop at our nationality,no! it is who we are. We should let it be seen everywhere. I would love to see a benin bronze in the white house or Mitchell Obama rocking a gele. I will celebrate our cultures from the tinest detail to the loudest one. I'm proudly African."



Question 5: Why did you choose your educational or career path? How would you use a position in your (desired) field to better situations in your
community?


"A career can often be used to light a path for others to see with. Sometimes,we choose what we do and other times,we stumble upon it. Well, I chose what to do. I chose banking because i've always wanted to
be a banker since i was a kid. i lived in a street where virtually all the neighbours were bankers. i grew up admiring them and i love to be
one. Being a banker offers you the opportunity to meet and assist people from different works of life with their financial problems."

Question 6: What was a recent goal that you accomplished?

"I've set several goals for myself in the past. some were achieved, some were not.The ones not achieved,i take it at a second time around. but when i look at myself now, I see my admission into the
university as a goal. You know the problems with Nigerian Universities, you may pass jamb and postume and still nor see your name on the admission list. Well,i am grateful God sealed it this year."

Question 7: The roles of women in the world are expanding. However, they still remain fairly limited. Do you think it's imperative that roles of women should be more than the typical maternal and/or spousal duties? What would you do to get more women actively involved in atypical positions?


"Sometimes,i wonder when the issue of gender discrimination will
finally be buried. To me,the female gender and male gender are equal. If I graduated with the same certificate as him,what stops me from applying for the same post as he? being a homemaker is a tough
job,the cleaning,cooking,parenting isn't easy.but you still find women pursuing a demanding career while their home front still stands firm. its all about believing in yourself and managing your time. Be an
awesome mother,but never restrict yourself from being the World Bank President if you've the right criteria.

Question 8: Given the chance to be a part of the www.nairaland.com administrative unit, what would you change about the forum and Nairalanders? What changes would you effect?

Excessive and ludicrous banning. And if antispambot is a person, I'd sentence him to prison,see how he likes it.#Lolz#...but really,I'd
train the necessary people on the criteria for banning and clearly state how long each ban will go for, so when its committed, the person
will know the reason and a message would be sent quoting the exact place and punishments. I believe we should learn to cool down."


Question 9:What can't you do without?

Come on! like seriously? the list is that long. okay,i really don't have anything in particular,but then...my novels ehn! I am always close with one. even when I'm sleeping or in the restroom. Seriously,i'm addicted to good novels."

Question 10: Define "Beauty".

Beauty can be viewed from different contexts. but I see beauty in the faces of these gorgeous ladies i'm contesting with. Infact, everyone is beautiful. When we show kindness,humility,grace,forgiveness to
people,tgen we are expressing tge beauty in our hearts. but when it comes with a face that makes people look twice,even awesome! you're
indeed lucky and i do find myself in the category of lucky ones.

ROZZAY'S QUESTIONS &ANSWERS


Question 1: Several women have competed in Miss Nairaland competitions in the past. With all the criticism and down-talking of contestants, many potential contenders were discouraged and opted out, but you didn't. Why did you decide to roll with the tide and participate in this edition of Miss Nairaland?

 When we know humor, then we know when to loosen up. The individualities associated with this makes it easy for me to read into the minds behind each uncomfortable comments. I don't know what's going through their minds, so I already overlooked each negative comment in my mind. so when I read them, I just say, "awwww! I wonder why he or she is grumpy." grin 
People are generally nice and situations make them unkind sometimes. So, I put them in my shoes and forgive their nastiness. Moreover, I am a good swimmer, tides are my forte. grin no water fit carry this babe oo, I stubborn die! grin


Question 2: What gives you an edge over your competition?

In every competition there is a drive to be the best. Everyone all trying to put out their best acts. But, I'm me. I'm just doing me and having fun while I do. I don't really do edge. Wetin be edge sef? No be ordinary internet connection wey sabi fluctuate die! grin well, in that contest then, I would say my edge is being Rozzay and respecting myself, along side those that believe in me.


Question 3: How would a good friend or family member describe you?

Chatterbox. Hehehe... I can talk ehn! you go fear me na. Just kidding, i'm just known to voice out when it's important to do so. Dem go tell you say I no go gree if I get wetin I wan talk ooo. grin I'm blunt but will have your back when you need me to. And if you mess up? Na inside one trouser me and you go put legs. grin


Question 4: If there was one thing you could improve in Africa or amongst Africans, what would it be? And Why?

Our pride in our continent. No one will celebrate you unless you celebrate yourself? Right? Who says there is anything wrong in blowing your own trumpet? Let's start blowing! But let's be heard for the right reasons. African is an attitude, a swag that we can rock anywhere. When we are proud, we stand out. Peacock things na. E easy? grin


Question 5: Why did you choose your educational or career path? How would you use a position in your (desired) field to better situations in your community?


Firstly, I will like to answer this question by saying that most of the time in our country because of the low level of education and its standards, peer and parental pressures most youth are not given opportunities or proper orientation to go into fields where they desire or are meant for. That's where are my driving at.
My field of study is not really what I chose from the onset, but due to various reasons I found myself in it. And believe me, I have no regrets.
The world is evolving into a global village, everything is changing from manual to computerization. So as a computer scientist, I can do a lot of things in my society by helping the children learn how to be computer literate. Lending my advice in any area which might require technological improvement be it security etc. Writing programs to solve people's problems and of course creating a website like Nairaland which will help inspire and motivate the youths and leaders of tomorrow.


Question 6: What was a recent goal that you accomplished?


Believing in myself, to be among the people being voted for today. As in ehn. This is a goal that is worthy of accomplishing. And hopefully with my e-friends behind me, I can take it all the way.


Question 7: The roles of women in the world are expanding. However, they still remain fairly limited. Do you think it's imperative that roles of women should be more than the typical maternal and/or spousal duties? What would you do to get more women actively involved in atypical positions?


Even the maternal and spousal role no be yam beans na. E easy to carry belle and give forth a child? E no easy ooo! Whoever says women ain't trying, should pinch himself on the balls. grin if it hurts? Then multiply it a thousand fold. Our mind is gentle for a reason. We are the anchor that can hold the boat steady. If there is no anchor, boats don't sail. Chikena! But ladies need to start seeing beyond these things and actually try going out to get it. If you feel like you can make a mean surgeon? Why not?! Where does it say we need... ermmm...pardon me,  prîcks to hold a scalpel? no where! He has a brain, so do you? If he can use it to get there, so can you. We should never let gender stop us from striving towards occupying positions we're sure we can excel in.


Question 8: Given the chance to be a part of the www.nairaland.com administrative unit, what would you change about the forum and Nairalanders? What changes would you effect?

Trolling! Trolling!! Trolling!! The Rate at which people are trolling can scare trolls themselves. grin i'd make sure that aside from the censored word, each person whose comment gets hidden more than three times will get a ban. People just attack people for no reason. If you as are in a bad mood, why not take a bottle of rozzay and use it to step down! Life na jeje na. grin make una easy on the bashing oo. 


Question 9:What can't you do without?

My son! He is the love of my life! I love him to heaven and back again. Hehehe... and I actually just told him. He really loves smilingsmiley


Question 10: Define "Beauty"


Beauty is the depth of your love for those round you. It's the passion you feel that radiates through you to affect others. Beauty is me, in all regards.

"Women's role shouldn't be limited to spousal or maternal. The world is evolving and I'm one for gender equality. Several women around the world has shown us how easy it easy to combine marital duties as well as their career and live their dreams. And this is not just in western countries but in our third world countries. Women in Nigeria are embracing the thoughts of Cynthia Enloe. Ngozi Okonjo, the late Dora Akunyili, Chimamanda adichie Our dearest Sara Jubril etc... Now too, women are occupying more than just the position of a first lady or governors wife. We have Our Mama patience, ekaette godswill Akpabio... also Bianca ojukwu..
Women can be made yo get actively involved in atypical positions by first creating the enabling environment for them. For instance, our country offers universal adult suffrage. In this case, women token can contest for elections. and win. Also, to get women involved in atypical positions, we have to remove stereotypes that crowd people's thought that women should be relegated to the home.
Also, we could set up policies... like stating that heads of corporations would be headed by both males and females at intervals. If all these and others are done, we'll find women taking up atypical positions and showing the world tgats we are just as good as our male counterparts if not better."

Question 10: Define "Beauty"


"Beauty is an abstract concept. Beauty is a thing seldom seen. It is held by all within the soul it lies,
waiting to come out to the surface, but it can only be found if someone is sharing your soul with you. Beauty is suppressed by the evils of the world. Only love can bring beauty out. Once seen, beauty never hides again. Not even hatred can deny beauty of it's
true design. Beauty, although possessed by all by few and fewer yet will ever see one of the most beautiful sights - the beauty held by you.

<<|ROKIATU|>>


This beautiful endowed lady in her twenties hails from Liberia. She is a student of Pharmacy and right now she is volunteering as a bi-cultural worker on her free days and absolutely loves it. She enjoys hanging out with friends, and she really loves cooking. "I am like a personal chef in my house, I love the kitchen. I also enjoy listening to music, and of course shopping, everyone that knows me knows I just love fashion. I frequent Nairaland a lot, I mean as much as i would love to lie to myself and everyone and leave out nairaland I mean common, my post counts should be testimony hahahahah since 2006 been addicted to this place. I always have my phone with me always on nairaland, God bless Seun." She says

On what she thinks makes her different from others, she has this to say "I am just like the next person walking down the street really, we all have goals, we all have worries, and off course we all want one thing happiness. The only thing that set me apart from them is my individuality, else I am just like the rest of the human species."

She looks out for in other people nothing other than kindness. "In this wicked and cruel world we live in today, kindness is a virtue I adore. That's the number one thing I get attracted to in a person, how they treat others says a lot about them selves. A good sense of humor never hurt anyone as a matter of fact, if you want to win me ovoverjust be funny. And someone who is laid back simple and knows how to have a good time." Pardon me. That is too deep not to be quoted.

Her role model is her mother, "I adore this woman, I idolize this woman, I love this woman. My mother is my inspiration. My mother is actually an ordinary person with a lotlot admirable qualities. She has been through a lot in taking care of me since I was an infant. Right up to now she has never given up on me. In my own eyes I have always seen my mother as a very special and unique person, with a lovely and altruistic soul. She is such a committed hardworking and dedicated person. Despite being a single mother, She still manages to go to school, work, look after her kids including an autistic child. She is such a generous, giving, caring and wonderful human being. She is the true definition of beauty, inner and outer beauty. I can only wish to be half the woman she


And when asked what her favourite food is, "You know what they say about Africans, we eat rice for breakfast, lunch and dinner hahahahhaah I hope that answers your question." Rokiatu is really,making it difficult for me not to quote her. Her goal is to achieve all her dreams, every single dreams she has. More like to achieve a goal and then another and then another. Awesome! Do you disagree?

"With all due respect to my fellow queens I believe we are all beautiful and special but I deserve to be crowned Miss Nairaland because my intelligence, confidence, and beauty makes me stand out among the rest. Another reason I entered this competition is because a girl said I was on the larger side for a competition like this, Since I widely disagree with her statement, I took it as a challenge to prove to her and everyone else with such belief that beautiful women comes in all shapes and sizes. Especially African women, that is what makes us so diverse." Okay this is it, Vote Contestant Number 6 as your next Miss. Nairaland.

ROKIATU'S QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Question 1: Several women have competed in Miss Nairaland competitions in the past. With all the criticism and down-talking of contestants, many potential contenders were discouraged and opted out, but you didn't. Why did you decide to roll with the tide and participate in this edition of Miss Nairaland?

You know there is a quote that reads "if they don't know you personally don't take it personal"nairaland  critics don't affect me not one bit.  I actually really love the miss nairaland competitions,  Every  year, I follow it till the end, I find it to be really entertaining. This year I decided to participate.  Any one who knows me knows I don't care what people think, so this was a trivial matter for me. 


Question 2: What gives you an edge over your competition?

"Like I said earlier we are all queens in our own right, but my confident, intelligence and off course beauty and curves as well, lol, make me a strong contender. 


Question 3: How would a good friend or family member describe you?

"Friends and family would describe me as funny, talkative, intelligent, and generous."


Question 4: If there was one thing you could improve in Africa or amongst Africans, what would it be? And Why?


"To be more charitable, ever since I was a little kid, I always wondered why the rich never give back to the poor. certain people remain rich for life why others remain poor all their lives.      (please allow me to generalize here)  Our politicians are so selfish, They don't care about the people who elected them, all they care about is their own selfish interest. most Africans have no sympathy for their fellow men, they will do anything to reach/stay at the top and no one should even come close to them.  Even among the communities groups, jealousy, envyness, selfishness, and greed is holding us back.   If only we were more charitable, and giving I believe Africa would be a better place."


Question 5: Why did you choose your educational or career path? How would you use a position in your (desired) field to better situations in your
community?


"It was always a goal of mine to be in the health industry, I wanted to be a nurse but I don't like the sight of blood so I opted for pharmacy. I chose this career path because I wanted to do something that would be beneficial to my community.  I believe with this career choice, i will still be able to make an impact in my community."

Question 6: What was a recent goal that you accomplished? I got married to the love of my life hahahahahaha.



Question 7: The roles of women in the world are expanding. However, they still remain fairly limited. Do you think it's imperative that roles of women should be more than the typical maternal and/or spousal duties? What would you do to get more women actively involved in atypical positions?

The role of women is only fairly limited in certain part of the world, in most countries, women are allowed to do, and be what they want. Take for example, Australia, a former female prime minister Julia Gillard, and Liberia president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, I am a huge admirer of women who have paved the way into so many varied areas that used to be only male dominated. I want my daughters in the future to be able to grow up in a society that allows them to be what they want. As individuals, we just have to change our mindsets. At the same time, I also support individuality, some wants to only play the "typical" role as you put it.    


Question 8: Given the chance to be a part of the www.nairaland.com administrative unit, what would you change about the forum and Nairalanders? What changes would you effect?

"Big kudos to seun, for the new features,  I really like the "mentions" and "likes" features. If I was part of the administrative unit, a dislike button would be added. and I really despite the censored words. I mean what wrong with sex that it has to be censored to intimacy?"


Question 9:What can't you do without? 

"I try not to be dependent on anything to the point where I can't live without it. Apart from air, water and food I can pretty much life without anything." 


[b]Question 10: Define "Beauty".


"As the saying goes "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder"  Beauty should not solely based on physical appearances. How each of us see beauty is subjective as it depends on the individual. I am a firm believer that the beauty of a person is within them.  And its true. Have you ever seen a wonderfully good-looking person and then speak to them and get a little closer all of a sudden you think "they are not all that after all?"  well that's because their beauty inside doesn't match their outside. There are other people who aren't so good looking at first but are kind, giving, loving, confident and just seem to have something that attract people to them. When you speak to them and get a little closer, all of a sudden you view them as "good looking". That's because their beauty within shines outwardly. That my friend is the definition of true beauty for you, inner beauty. It has no relation to features of our face or body. But rather character traits and qualities."

I always make sure the people i love know i love them b/c you never know what will happen...i make sure i tell my family i love them....my best friends...i don't have many friends that i talk to b/c im so different from a lot of people and i dont trust people (i have a lot of acquaintances...but not too many people i would call friends) but the best friends i do have are the bestest."

What qualities does Temigracie get attracted to in people? "The major factor here would be honesty. Others would be intelligence, Humor, loyalty and charity." She stated expressly.


Her role model is Malala Yousifazi. "A young woman who survived an attempt on her life and who is now an outspoken advocate of female rights and female education in the Middle East. Malala Yussufzai is the textbook-perfect example of a role model for young women. She continues to be the voice of advocacy for Female education especially in the terrorist held areas of Iraq, Afghanistan and the middle east."

"I am a foodie (meaning I generally love food) and thus it makes it particularly difficult to pick one.. But if I must, I would go with Coconut Rice, served with Dodo (Plantain) and a Chilled (almost frozen) glass of juice."

"My burning desire is to be a great mum to my kids and a role model to my daughters. To be able to attain the highest level professionally and entrepreneurially without sacrificing my responsibilities to me Kids and Husband. To be able to leave a lasting impression in my chosen field of Human psychology and be a professional reference in same field whose Theories and works would be taught to young physiologists as part of their curriculum."

She said this when asked why she thinks she should be crowned Miss Nairaland. With all due respect to my fellow contestants, I believe I deserve to be the next Miss Nairaland as I bring with me a whole lot of character, grace, intelligence and charisma to the crown. I believe that I would be a good exemplary model to many young and even older Nairaland ladies both academically, intellectually and physically. I do intend to continue to influence as many Nairalanders as possible through giving them intelligently written advices to their problems, through putting a smile on their faces through jokes and just lighting their days through interactions with as many Nairalanders as possible both on and offline.


Vote Contestant Number 8, Temigracie as the next Miss Nairaland.

TEMIGRACIE'S QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS


Question 1: Several women have competed in Miss Nairaland competitions in the past. With all the criticism and down-talking of contestants, many potential contenders were discouraged and opted out, but you didn't. Why did you decide to roll with the tide and participate in this edition of Miss Nairaland?

"Honestly, my initial reason for joining the contest was to catch fun. I later found out that it is more tasking and kinda interesting in the long-run."


Question 2: What gives you an edge over your competition?

I have what it takes to be a winner. I totally acknowledge the fact that all the contestants are beautiful.

 
Question 3: How would a good friend or family member describe you?

"A good friend or family member will describe me as a reserved and cool girl. I am honest, friendly, sweet, half-introverted and half-extroverted."


Question 4: If there was one thing you could improve in Africa or amongst Africans, what would it be? And Why?

I'll love to improve or work on  girl/female-child education. Because there are lots of Africans who still believe women have little or no right to education.

Question 5: Why did you choose your educational or career path? How would you use a position in your (desired) field to better situations in your
community?

 
"Physiology is a branch of medicine. Going into the medical or para-medical field has always been my passion. While growing up, I noticed I had a special interest in the field. I'll improve the health or medical system of the community. Because health is wealth. Starting from the grass-roots, I ll incorcate or improve good personal hygiene."

Question 6: What was a recent goal that you accomplished?

"I just concluded my B.Sc programme in the university."

Question 7: The roles of women in the world are expanding. However, they still remain fairly limited. Do you think it's imperative that roles of women should be more than the typical maternal and/or spousal duties? What would you do to get more women actively involved in atypical positions?
   
"The role of women should not be the typical maternal or spouse duties. There are lots of changes women can effect in our world. Women are brilliant, smart and higgly focused. I would increase or improve the girl-child education. I ll work on women with special skills eg vocational skills, increase televised awareness on women power and ability."


Question 8: Given the chance to be a part of the www.nairaland.com administrative unit, what would you change about the forum and Nairalanders? What changes would you effect?

"I'll want or like to improve on the front page topics. I ll also allow easy accessibility to the MODS. I ll create a suggestion thread where nairalanders can summit or write their conplaints and suggestions openly.

Question 9:What can't you do without?

"There are some items I always want with me. The most important one is my phone. It has been always been like a friend."

Question 10: Define "Beauty".  

"Beauty is not always about the perfect external features. It usually include some psychological factors like charisma, intelligence, personality etc."

We don't appreciate the fact that the contestants make us go through double tasks.


We gave you one whole day for a reason.so you could send in your best write-ups and not expect me to correct your typographical errors.


Left for me, I don't care because this is one of the reasons why this segment was introduced; to test your writing abilities.

We could help with building your profile but not the questions and answers part.

If I edit for one, I should for others. One or two of you would have taken out time to write to the best of her ability so if you contact me or any of the judges to edit anything this morning we won't. Time is a very important factor.

Never rush in doing important things.

JE NE SAIS QUOI
Re: Miss Nairaland December 2014 Winner: Jennimma! by EzePromoe: 10:11am On Nov 08, 2014
Wow. The Finals. [b]Now my criticism;

1. JENNIMMA
Jenny, you are naturally beautiful to be sincere. You've got a charming smile and I've tipped you and 4 others (though I failed one) to get to this stage. But if anything would hinder you not finishing top, it will be your photo background. But if the voters will look over this, then you're my best bet. I feel also that the advantage of being first on the list is already there to your favour but don't be relaxed yet. This same thing worked for Thorerah in the last edition until someone pulled a Miracy. One thing I've noticed in Miss NL, the most beautiful don't always win. You just need something more than that. As for your Q&A, methinks you didn't give that your best shot. Not that it was bad, but it was just average, there's nothing inspiring there but you've given your best already. At least you are a good billboard of the contest, looking at you encouraged me to scroll down further. Goodluck to you!

ROZZAY
You're pretty and matured. You've got so many rooting for you but hey you may be SURPRISED. To be sincere, your Q&A orientation was too informal to have been used for contest. You know very well that this isn't the jokes section or maybe some post you quote but a contest for that matter. Assuming you were enrolling for MBGN pageant, would you use pidgin English? A capital NO NO. Please just take it as a lesson you should correct. I know you have a good sense of humour, but let your posts in other threads do the education on your personality.

VIVLY
You seem to appear one of the brainiest (no disrespect to other contestants). Your interview was superb, you killed it but why does it seem like you guys are being stingy with pics or could the fault be from the judges? I don't think so. In a grand finale like this, I expected to see new and breathtaking selfies, not something recycled. You're beautiful and coincidentally, you have almost the same smile with that of your role model, Chimamanda. Hope you rise higher to someone more renowned than her. Your input raises my hope of a brighter Africa under female leadership. Goodluck!

ROKIATU
Seriously, I was surprised you agreed to join this contest, something that is rare amongst the old female NLders. I hope someone like Idowuogbo takes this as a challenge just as you took yours. grin
I hope at this stage of the contest you've not gone to relax. The contest is still open to every contestants, so you have to be on the watch.
You're undisputably the sexiest on this list. You've not just got the charisma, you've also got the class. UKWU! Keep ROKIng! smiley

TEMIGRACIE
You're a black beauty. I still believe you can pull a surprise, it's never too late. If your campaign manager is not doing enough work, you can come in and do it yourself. Lupey, out of oblivion, and came out the Miss Nairaland. She really did hardwork by campaigning for herself. You can still make it. I don't want to talk about your interview because you were taciturn there. All the same, I wish you goodluck!


You all are very beautiful but I'm not going to vote for anybody because I wish I could vote for all of you but it isn't possible. My allegiance to whomever would be the winner.

Dygeasy: Question 10: Define "Beauty"


"Beauty is an abstract concept. Beauty is a thing seldom seen. It is held by all within the soul it lies,
waiting to come out to the surface, but it can only be found if someone is sharing your soul with you. Beauty is suppressed by the evils of the world. Only love can bring beauty out. Once seen, beauty never hides again. Not even hatred can deny beauty of it's
true design. Beauty, although possessed by all by few and fewer yet will ever see one of the most beautiful sights - the beauty held by you.


,And that's how to define BEAUTY!!!

She's a God that transcends the physical....
