Kenya has a new beauty queen to replace Roshanara Ebrahim who was dethroned due to a breach of the Miss World franchise’s “code of conduct”.
Roshanara will be replaced by Evelyn Njambi who was the first runner-up to the Miss World Kenya 2016. The 23-year-old interior design student at Maseno University was also the reigning Miss World Kenya, Kiambu County 2016.
During her reign as Miss World Kenya Kiambu, she engaged in various activities for her county, including supporting children to access quality education. She has worked with the Red Cross Chapter in Kiambu to donate text books and uniform to children, as well as sanitary towels to girls.
Accepting the prestigious title, Evelyne said, “I am excited to be Miss World Kenya 2016; the journey ahead is tough with such a short time, but I appeal to the public to support me both towards my international competition and my Beauty with a Purpose project of advocating against Female Genital Mutilation in our beautiful country.”
