The general project of the pageant for this year, is Advocacy for Mass Electoral participation by Nigerian Electorates and the pet project for my foundation, Queen Jasmine Foundation is Rage Against Rape : A RAR Campaign..which goes with a youth empowerment and emancipation programme geared towards empowering 5000 female student on skill acquisition. The project was flagged-off on 28th June, 2013 at Prof. Chike Okoli Entrepreneur Centre UNIZIK with enormous turn-out and participation
How do you intend achieving this?
Well, for the MBSN project which is Advocacy for Mass Electoral Participation by Nigerian Electorates, we are already on it with my other beauty Queens of the pageant. As you know, indifferent attitudes by most Nigerians have been the greatest impediment to electoral success in previous general elections in Nigeria. Conscious of this regrettable reality, some mischievous politicians have manipulated this apathy to their selfish ends while the defenceless Nigerian masses in unimaginable penury.
Understanding that democratic privilege is only possible
when people choose their leaders by themselves, it becomes important
that we carry out strong and impactful advocacy that has the bite to
move Nigeria into patriotic electoral participation in order to ensure
needed changes that will guarantee aggregate democratic dividends to
every Nigeria.
On how to achieve it, the Queens shall embark on a
nationwide advocacy and campaign to all campuses in Nigeria. We shall
visit all major political parties to intimate them of the need for
decent politicking exercises at every electioneering period. Seminars
and workshops shall be conducted at periodic intervals in all states of
the federation with particular attention to campus communities.What has been the challenges so far?
As you know there are many higher institutions in Nigeria and reaching out to them all will not be easy though we have started. Well articulated messages on the “Role of youth and students in Nigeria's electoral system” to be printed in booklet form and to be produced massively and in large quantity. On that we need more partners and sponsors to assist in making a statement. We have been working with the media on that. We have been on Air- Orient TV, Dream FM, My TV Africa, on newspapers and Online media and blogs
Who has been most helpful so far?
In truth, not been easy but my management, family and some partners have been the most helpful. The media is not out of it, they have been consistent. But more assistance from Government agencies and corporate bodies will help drive the message home.
What are the areas you need assistance right now?
In truth, we seek partners and sponsors to assist in making a pronounced statement in this project. Everything boils them to fund or kind gestures in printing more awareness messages to schools, more Air time on the broadcast media, Mobility for my team to visit the higher institutions across the country and other related necessities.
.How has it been combing this with your studies?
I have been coping well because my department and school know about my crown besides, I plan my programmes well not to affect my studies. Don't forget,I have a management that assist me in my other MBSN projects so as not to allow my education suffer.
