A Nigerian lady identified as Pamela Ashley Uba is being celebrated on social media platforms after being crowned Miss Ireland 2021.
The 26-year-old medical scientist recently became the first black winner of Miss Ireland pageant, breaking a 74-year-old jinx.
The beautiful lady hails from Anambra State, but was born in South Africa in 1995. She, however, left South Africa for Ireland as an asylum seeker, when she was seven, according to Irish Times.
Uba’s journey into pageantry began in March 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic and she emerged as Miss Galway, even without any prior modeling experience.
With her recent win as Miss Ireland, she would be representing the country in the 70th Miss World Competition, scheduled to hold in December 2021.
