21-year-old Nigerian model Precious Okeke has emerged winner of the 2013 Miss Black Africa UK Beauty Pageant – the event took place over the weekend at the Royal Regency Hall in east London.
The pageant, which started in 2011, saw 30 finalists from 17 African countries sail through to the finals. The judges opted for Ms Okeke after intense deliberations, while the first and second runners up were Alexina Phiri and Sonia Ike respectively.
Judges on the night included Adebayo Jones, Jenni Steele, Sporah Njau, Ini Edo, Kunle Lawani and choreographer Mr Fierce.

After being crowned by her predecessor, Samaia Tchapesseka from Angola, Precious stated that her mandate is to work towards eradicating child labour and poverty.
Miss Black Africa UK is open to young women from Africa that are resident in the UK and the winner becomes a goodwill ambassador for the Organisation in Africa working closely with their charity programme.
