Ida Saine-Conteh, co-founder of Ida’s Ideas Training Institute said since Miss Gambia was not taking place for a longtime means The Gambia was not being represented in international contests.
“We are trying to bring back Miss Gambia as we have the support of the Ministry of Tourism and Culture and other partner,” she said.
She added that, Miss Gambia’s contest will be a big event and that everyone’s support is needed to make the event a success.
Mrs Saine-Conteh explained that the regional contest has already started in the Greater Banjul Area, Kanifing Municipality and West Coast Region. “We already have a Miss in each region,” she mentioned.
“We will also be in rural areas from 27th to 30th October 2022 for the regional contests,” she added.
She said they are not only looking for beautiful girls but are also looking for beauty with brains, saying that after the contest the winner will represent The Gambia at international level.
“The event will be conducted professionally as we have plans for the winner to participate in the Miss Universe and Miss World,” he further said.
The Miss Gambia contest will be hundred percent Gambian culture including music on how best to sell The Gambian culture and misic.
