 Wei yuki pa sii kwa huli na uwin. Kama hii wana kiiwekaya ni hao. KUwani, kwa kutia nga uwin? Sasho nga ala. Yon wa kimi nga niwa hindi wani Owi na jwa henda, kwa kakaiti na uwin, tkwani katia wana, kwa nga uwi saswa sa kika And also the Sash and the Crown, when you get these three things, it's one of the best things because at the end of the day you are recognized by even the community. But one thing I understand in our country, they are not into that like modeling, it's not into too much because you get some small organization, they are not known that much. I was watching South Africa Miss Humanity 2022, her name is Davi, and when she was coming back home, I could see the community, there was even a welcoming back home whereby the value of modeling in their country so much. So in our country you are saying we have not put value in the modeling yet? Yes, there is not what I can say because out there so many girls were so talented in such and maybe they don't even have a way out to show themselves out there or maybe to just be in big pageant or maybe in organization. But at least they are trying and it's a big challenge whereby you want to do something and you don't have the support. I can say that they don't support us so much as they say because I remember one day someone came to me and they told me that modeling, what is modeling? They thought it's just catwalking but no, there is so much in it because you have to also give back to the society. I remember in this year, I think it was in May or April, in between, we went to Mukuru, Kanjenga and we gave some food. We weren't able to give so much but at least we did something and of course you understand the economies, the way it is right now. Some people are not even able to raise funds to buy even food. Even to get that one meal a day is not even possible. So we were able to give some food to some people and it was just amazing. I'm so grateful because I had some people who were very supportive. They gave their money for us to go and buy those food and that was very beautiful. So coming back to us winning the sash and the crown is something very beautiful. It's something amazing because one year on the runway and you don't get it, people crying. I'm telling you that too. I know the emotions that are there. I remember you see when people are working out, they don't even care who win. It's so emotional because it's something that it's viral. You've invested in. You invest in it because also during the competition there are clothes you buy for yourself, their shoes and it's not just a shoe because you'll have to get a 6 inch or 5 inch or 7 inch whereby you don't give them so easily. You have to work hard for them. It's not easy to work in. It's not easy. You should try. It's not easy to work in 6 inch. So at some point you have to do so much in it and at the end of the day if you don't get anything in return it's so annoying. It's so annoying but at the end of the day if you are passionate about it or you believe in yourself you just work hard for it. You work hard for it. I remember that person wanted to give up. He gave up a long time ago because for all those years the only time I had to get a chance to have a title was last year 2021. I've been modelling. I'm never even near top 10 but at the end of the day you keep pushing because you know what you want. Here I am. I'm just so grateful. We wish you all the best because you're going to represent us in Nigeria come October. We wish you the best. Thank you so much. We know that it's going to be great. What is the title Miss Humanity Hold? What does it stand for? We have heard of Miss Wilde. We have heard of Miss Tourism. What does Miss Humanity stand for? Because it's not very known. Miss Humanity stands for being a person with a heart of humour because when you don't have a great heart or maybe you're not easy to go or maybe you're not even social to people everyone will be like, I don't want to associate with that person. But when you have a heart of humour you'll be a person. It's a way of helping one another. It's a way of being on the lookout. I have to be on the lookout and see maybe these people need something and have to be the first person to be of help. People have to be on the lookout on me. I have to be like their role model especially in my community or where I live. They have to be looking at me like their role model. So that is what it holds. It's a very big title though and you have to do a lot. You have to be on your toes. People are just looking up on me. How much does it take for you? Is it too much pressure holding that title and expectations that people have on you? Yes, it is too much. Especially if you don't have the funds because you have to do so many things and you have to invest in it. So you have to work so hard for it, for you to be where you are right now. You get me. You have to give so much. Some people expect a lot and maybe you're not even able to deliver that. But I'm trying my best as much as I can. So once you get the title there's no funding that you're given to support your mission or your agenda to the people. You don't get any financial support? For this one actually there are different crowns of titles that you get and you are funded. But for this one the reason we did the Miss Humanity and Miss Africa Unite we were just talking about peace before the election that is. It was all about peace and just one person came and organized this event and decided to give the ladies an opportunity to showcase what they have. The person happened to have connection in different countries because we actually were three of us who won but for the Miss Africa Unite now the queen she won she was supposed to go to Botswana. She was supposed to go in November and then there was another one who was also supposed to go to Nigeria. But at the end of the day we were not being sponsored, we were sponsoring ourselves. Whereby like the flight ticket and everything whatever because like the competition ahead of me there's so much requirements. Whereby it's all me. I don't have like a sponsor or anyone who is doing this for me. So on the lookout whereby I can get sponsorship or maybe our organization that can sponsor me in funds you know because it's a lot inquired. But the good thing is that once I go there they have catered for the accommodation and that is the most stressing part of it because imagine just going to a different country you are a foreigner whereby you don't even know where to stay you're not even familiar with that place but the good thing is that once I get there everything is on them but before I leave everything is on me so whereby I'm on the lookout if I can get an organization people who can support or be willing to do this so it's not an easy thing it's too much pressure I can tell you right now. And how are you managing? What keeps you going or why do you want to hold the title New Humanity Africa representing the whole of Africa? Because I'm always so passionate I'm passionate about moderating so much and I wouldn't want to lose this opportunity and say an opportunity comes once in a lifetime and if it's gone it's gone it won't come back and I would be so proud seeing myself in that stage holding the Kenyan flag higher and representing my country I would be so honored to do that because I would imagine that I would not go you know that is a very bad feeling you're so excited about something and then it doesn't happen so I hope it won't get to that point in a prego that everything will come to pass as it is planned So what impacts do you want to achieve after your tenure as Miss Humanity Kenya and if you get the title hopefully that you will because we are behind you Miss Humanity Africa what are your aspirations to the people what do you hope to impact at the end of it that people will remember you with? Well once I win this title because it's a big one as I come back I want to start something very special an organization whereby I want to get to help the children mostly those who don't have families or those who don't have mothers or anyone who is on the lookout I want to build a home for them I remember when I was growing up I grew up alone I grew up is an orphan whereby it was not that easy for me and I remember several times I even tried suicidal but at the end of the day I had to be strong for myself because I wanted to be someone in the future and I've been on the lookout I see so many people out there so many children they don't even have homes I remember at some point I didn't even have a home I didn't even have a place I can't stay but today I have a place I call my home I have a place whereby I can go and stay this is my place and I'm so grateful and out there I've been seeing so many children they don't even have food they lack so many things I'm not even able to do that at some point I would just walk on the streets of Nairobi watch the things they do or where they live like this morning when I was coming I just saw a very young lady with a small baby she's just sleeping on the streets with a blanket and it's very cold and then I just imagined in myself on my heart what did she went to all the whole night what was happening what was in her mind it is so emotional and I would wish to have such a home whereby I can hold so many children whereby they just come they eat this food this everything for them that is my plan that is my future plan and even if I don't win I'll still do something like that because I'm so passionate about helping people but I'm not even able to do so but the little I can I do amazing and you truly deserve the title because we can see the passion behind you speaking to helping the needy and the orphans those that are in the streets and it's a reflection of what you've been through in your own life being an orphan so would you say that your past your background was instrumental to who you are now yes it is because when I look at so many girls out there or when I look at myself at some point or at so many times I felt like giving up with everything whereby you wake up in one day and you feel like you don't wanna feel like you want to go on with everything you feel like you cannot even do this because there is no one to even be there for you like when it comes maybe I don't know whether I should talk about this but when it comes to menstruation or we girls and you want to we are always so scared about it the first time and you wish to have someone you can share it with and I remember the first time I didn't even have anyone I didn't even have anyone to buy me sanitary towels it was just myself and I remember I used something that I wouldn't want to say on air whereby it was very sad and I would encourage myself always because where I am today if I sit down with you and give you my story you'll be amazed it'll be one day to happen and it's something very emotional whereby you're just all alone you need to be loved as a person or as a young girl as a child that is and I remember me when I was growing up I didn't have that I didn't experience the love of a parent because there was none when I see people loving me or appreciate me that means the whole world to me it may be simple it may be just anything but to me at the end of the day it's something very entitled amazing looking back to your story again when you were maybe 15 what are you most proud of looking at where you are now wow when I was 15 what was I even doing what are you most proud of I'm proud of being strong I'm proud of being a strong woman because I know if I tell you whatever happened back in the days you would give up you wouldn't even want to move on because it's so scary but today I stand here or I sit here before you or before these cameras saying to myself or telling that lady or that young woman want to give up in life don't don't give up keep pushing on because I heard of you there are some great things you know at some point I'm like who could have thought maybe one day I would be a person who would be on air I never even thought I never even saw something like that in my entire life but today I'm so privileged to be seated before people people watch me out there and it's just amazing and I wanna thank someone his name is Brian he has been so pushing I've not known him for so long but he's always very supportive I know he's just around and he's always so supportive even to be on the lookout to give me these opportunities I'm so grateful to him and with his fanikisha movement they are always supportive in everything that they are doing so I always encourage any girl or any woman when you feel like it's the end of you or when you feel like you don't want to continue in whatever you are doing do not give up because I heard of you there are so many things that maybe you won't even imagine because when you believe in God I always say that always be a prayerful person and that is the most thing that I do on my knees always on my knees because without that I wouldn't even be where I am today amazing we celebrate really because you are a strong woman and if that's something to be proud of for someone who is in the position that you are in some time back and you are giving up and someone who is suicidal too what would you tell them? I would tell them to not give up try and get someone to talk to because I remember at some point when I was going through such I had to get a woman she is late right now and she talked to me a lot she took me like her own child and she was always listening to me she could tell me anytime you feel like you want to do something bad take your phone call me cry if you want to cry so I will tell someone if you feel you are in the corner where you feel you want to do something crazy but always look for someone whereby there are some people you won't be free to everyone but maybe there is always one person whereby you have that one person you treasure all you love or you want your friends always talk to them always listen to them and when you feel like you want it's the end of time just be on your knees pray something great will happen look at you now we are living testaments I am for someone who wants to get into modeling and being a pageant what does it take for an angle you just be on your toes learn to walk on your heels watch a lot of modeling mostly out of the country I was always envy about she is a model she was Miss Wall 2013 she came from a very humble background and even for her winning the title she never saw it coming and I will tell someone that always work hard believe in yourself don't give up keep pushing because whatever when you know you want something you always go for it so work hard alone in the house go upstairs maybe in your building have a rooftop that's where I used to train most of the time just do it just work it doesn't matter you don't suppose even to start with 6 inch or 7 inch exactly work straight just learn to work that's the most important thing and have confidence but some people have this stereotype that to win a pageantry you have to be like in are there some of the challenges that are there and how true or untrue is this at some point I thought so but let me tell you even when I was competing maybe when I was in a different page and that was Miss Kiambo I was presenting Kiambo County I remember then when we were doing our first auditions we were 80 girls and the audition was just next year Kenya National Theatre and out of 80 girls some of them were taller than me they were light-skinned me am dark-skinned they were taller, even slimmer than I am and I'm telling you at some point that was true but it's not true what matters what the judges looks by their way your confidence confidence is everything your work what do you do when you are on that stage because there is always a Q&A how confident are you most of the judges look you are supposed to be repeating yourself especially when you are asked a question and if you don't know don't even start thinking just I don't think that matters a lot during that time just say I don't know that's fine I remember when I was doing the Miss Kiambo County audition I was asked about the vice president of Uganda and I didn't know I can't lie about it because I never saw it coming I just told the judge I don't know just like I don't know so don't repeat yourself or start thinking no that is very wrong just be honest there are some qualities that I also expected of a pageant yes there are some qualities also like most of the team they look for size 8 or maybe someone with taller but I can say at some point right now they don't look for such nowadays what about character you have to be someone who is not rude especially like on a training when you are doing a training you have to be a person who is decent when you are told something don't be a person like I can't do it don't even be rude to any judge or any coach that is very wrong because they look at your attitude or how you behave in public or before people and once they see you are a rude person that is a disqualification by the way as we come to a close tell us what word would you leave to the people watching you and need some encouragement in this area or in life because you are a mishumanity after all so what word would you have for them this is your camera I will say that whenever you want something always go for it whenever you feel like you want don't give up don't lose hope always be passionate about everything always be a prayerful person when it comes to something great always pray to God great things happen do not lose hope and if you want to become a model work hard always be on your toes do not lose hope and always watch the most outside pageant watch them and work on your heels just train yourself and be passionate do not lose hope what is your social
