A beauty contest that will celebrate young African women and presenting them as ambassadors for peace and unity in Nigeria will debut shortly in what organiserss have called the Miss Green and White Nigeria.

According to Juliet Geoffrey the founder, the project is an integrated social, political, religious and community orientation effort aimed at bringing together the Nigerian youth, men and women to advocate for a decent and ordered society that would maintain our cultural values, good government and sustainable national development.

“The project will be a good and effective campaign platform to fight violence against women, violence in all ramifications with the help of the government, including religious violence, political violence, tribal violence and help to build a peaceful and better society”, says Juliet in a statement issued.

Organisers say they are currently working with the Police and other security agents to achieve this objective with the coronation ball sheduled to take place during the 2nd quarter of the year 2014.

They have also asked other well-meaning agencies, NGOs, government parastatal, corporate bodies and individuals to be a part of the movement.
