UP NIGERIA.
What a beautiful lady representing Nigeria.
Nigeria representing.
And people that see themselves as animals in pain.
Everlasting pains and anguish will remain yours forever as long as you are filled with bitterness and hate.

For the enemies of Nigeria that hate my country and call it a zoo full of animals, may Amadioha strike una and people down fast fast.
Pigs will never die well.

God bless all good and sane Nigerians.
Success is yours.

So fun to watch last night. Mr. Steve Harvey was just taken away by the naija costume cheesy

No creativity in Nigeria ? No costume designers ? undecided

Good one Mr. Gasper (Filipino) designing Nigeria costume.

It is only snakes they know how to kill and eat...can't even use the snakeskin for bags or belts cheesy

Miss India took the crown - beautiful lady.
Goodluck doing your work ma'am.

I keep telling people, you can't keep copying others and win the game.

When you bring out your original creativity, even your competition will become your imitators.

Abeg my Igbo brothers, does this look like an Igbo woman traditional outfit? Why does it look suspiciously like a South African female native outfit? Like something from the South African Zulu tribe. And no, before you swear for me, I am from the Niger Delta.
