Basking in the euphoria of her victory last Saturday, newly crowned Miss Supranational Nigeria 2025 Paula Ezendu is already looking forward to storming Poland next year, for the 16th edition of the pageant.

The beauty queen, who cannot hold back her joy after winning the coveted crown at the just concluded Miss Universe Nigeria 2024, said “ I’m stepping into the universe with unmatched grace and boundless ambition.” She described the crown as a testament that a resilient heart would always win.

“It’s also a dream come true for me,” she added

Ezendu will be representing Nigeria at Miss Supranational 2025 in Poland. The Iruobieli, Anambra State-born beauty queen, who represented her state at the pageant has been celebrating her win on Instagram.

In an Instagram post, she wrote, “Winning Miss Supranational Nigeria 2024 is a dream come true, and I’m overwhelmed with gratitude. To everyone who believed in me and supported my second return to the Miss Universe Nigeria stage, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

“A special thank @misssupranationalnigeria for finding me worthy of this incredible title. I can’t wait to carry our flag high in Poland next year and make Nigeria proud! This crown is a testament that a resilient heart will always win. Let’s make history together!”

In another post, Ezendu wrote, “From Anambra to the stars, this journey is more than just a dream-it’s a destiny. I stand on the cusp of greatness, ready to illuminate the cosmos with my unwavering spirit and Nigerian pride. Together, we ascend, with each step a testament to resilience and hope. The universe is calling, and I am here to answer.”
