Evening fam

This year's Miss Nairaland Contest is probably the biggest and the fiercest in terms of the cash prize, the controversy and the longevity. It's been one hell of a roller-coaster from one issue to another, starting from the Admin's unwillingness to let a betting company sponsor the event, to individual issues popping up in different camps but so far.... One thing hasn't been visited. One issue has been left to dangle for far too long and its nauseating to say the least! I would really love to address it, but at the risk of taking sides I'd rather not but just incase anyone needs to discuss it, feel free to chat up your favourite gossip girl via PM.

Straight to my point, I'm gonna be stating Do's and Don't's for the contest so sit back, relax, be calculative and maybe you might be able to figure out why I decided to gist about this.

DON'T'S

Don't Vote For Someone Because She Is Your Friend: Yes! How will Nigeria move forward if we keep blaming those at the helm of govt for being corrupt when WE as the citizens are corruption-personified?
This is a beauty pageant not a celebration of friendship, the most deserving contestant should emerge as the winner. Do not vote for someone who is less deserving all because she is your friend and you want "your friend" to win. If your friend goofs at the end of the day, the joke will be on you because you knew she wasn't worthy but you let greed take over your conscience.


Don't Vote Based On First-come, First-serve Basis: YES! This is one of the biggest problems this pageant has been facing since day zero! Most nairalanders have this ego in them. They wait for who will ask them for votes first and when one contestant comes up, they stick to that contestant a loathe the rest simply because the rest haven't asked them. Have you stopped to think? Think about your own life outside this forum, you can't reachout to everyone even if you wanted to. Aside that, it has never been a criteria for winning a contest.
You as the voter, it is your right to put the contestants to scrutiny and decide whom you want to vote for (without making it public till the D-day) .


Don't Follow The WRONG Crowd: YES! In things like these, every contestant has a crowd. It is alright to follow the crowd in things like this but always make sure you're with the right bunch. Don't flow with those who only want the title for selfish interest or those who are looking for a means to get back at someone or some people for what ever reason it may be. Singularly scrutinise the candidates, pick the most deserving one (especially one with a Queenly Aura) and support her.


Don't Let Yourself Be Deceived: YES! This is for the bunch who don't have a choice. The ones who support a certain candidate simply because they were told to do so by their friend. Don't be deceived! Assuming NL was reality, would you root for someone less deserving all because your friend asked you to? Would you pick a faulty engine over a sound one? Would you pick a bad representative over a good one? Ladies should learn to get their priorities straight as they are meant to rally with someone who will be their face, someone who can represent them.


Don't Be Intimidated: Your team/candidate might not be a tough contender, but that doesn't mean you should loose hope in her! Support her as much as you can and if necessary, preach her gospel so that others can get to join in!

DO's

DO Remember That Its NOT A Do or Die Affair: YES! This one goes out to all those campaigners who resort to blackmailing other contestants so their candidate's popularity can soar. Remember, blowing off other peoples candles will not make yours shine brighter! If your candidate is well deserving, she will clinch the crown, you don't have to down play others.

Do Consider These things:

*The Candidates facial appearance

*The Candidates sense of style

*The Candidates eloquence

*The Candidates character

*The Candidates brilliance


If these points are not just taken into consideration but also applied, then I am positive, this year will be different, A deserving Queen will emerge. Miss Nairaland will be someone we can all be proud of.

XoXo..
