FORTY-two-year-old Nokuthula Sibanda was on Tuesday crowned Miss Zanu-PF Bulawayo Metropolitan province at a ceremony held at Davis Hall.
The modelling contest that saw a 70-year-old making it in the top three, was held to select the province’s representatives for the national finale.
The finale will be held during Zanu-PF’s 17th National People’s Conference in Esigodini that will run from December 10 to 15.
Sibanda beat six other contestants relegating Ruth Shelton (33) to first princess and Evelyn Nyambe (70) to second princess.
Following her crowning, Sibanda, who is Zanu-PF’s provincial secretary for transport, said she would do her best to represent the province at the national finals.
“I’m confident that I’ll bring the national crown home. The competition was very stiff as there were many talented ladies on stage
who could’ve won the top prize,” said
Sibanda, a mother of three.
She urged more women to participate in the revolutionary party’s pageant.
“This pageant encourages us to be clean and confident as women. I recommend more women to participate in these pageants
organised by the party in future,” said
Sibanda.
The competition was a mixture of old and young with winners being drawn from two categories, Youth and Women’s League.State media
