For Fiona Amuzie, former Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria, a chapter in the book of her life was closed last Saturday. It was just as another one was opening for 20-year-old Sylvia Nduka, Miss Taraba State, who emerged as the new MBGN queen. Clad in a green night gown, Amuzie was all smiles as she relinquished her crown. This is her parting shot.

Closed chapter
I am closing one of the most beautiful chapters in the book of my life as the outgoing Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria. It was a year filled with emotions, learning, friendship and growth. From dancing on the same stage with the President and the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, to meeting influential people, to assisting victims of human trafficking and child labour, I have really enjoyed my reign.

Cherished experience
Being the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria is an experience that I will cherish forever. This experience has changed my entire perspective of life. So many people gave me strength, inspiration and encouragement throughout my reign and I am thankful to everyone. From receiving a peace ambassadorship award by Igwe Efobi of Idemili North LGA and Youth Achievers Award by Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State, to presenting an award at the MTV Africa Awards, to representing my country in China for the Miss World competition, I am truly grateful for every single occurrence that has gone into shaping my year.

Gratitude
First and foremost, I would like to express my utmost gratitude to everyone at the Silverbird Group for making my dream of being an ambassador of our great nation come to fruition. Mr. Guy Murray-Bruce, without you none of this would be possible and I will always be indebted to you for your kindness.

My family, my backbone
My family has been my backbone. I couldn’t have asked to be born into a better family. The support I have received from all my siblings, cousins, uncles and aunties and especially my parents have all been incredible. I thank my mother for coming all the way to China to encourage me.

Advice to new queen
As I open a new chapter as MBGN alumni, I hope to continue to make an impact in the world with my non-profit organization, Fiona Amuzie Organisation Against Trafficking in Persons and Child Labour (FOTP). NAPTIP and WOTCLEF have assisted me in making an impact during this time. As I pass along a wonderful crown to the next Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria, I would like to offer her a few words of advice. You should take advantage of this grand opportunity and note that this is only the beginning of a promising and bright future.

My life, a testament
I stood in faith with my Maker a year ago, I stand with Him now and I thank Him for His blessing. My life is a testament to what God can do if only we could believe in Him.
