Represented by Michael Adeyemo, the Speaker, Oyo State House of Assembly, the governor commended the organisers of the contest, urging them not to relent in promoting such events.

Similarly, some members of the House of Representatives from the state, who attended the occasion, described the occasion as “wonderful’’.

Mr. Adepoju, who appreciated the organisers, said the state could produce a Miss World from the event, urging participants not to shy away from whatever they had passion for.

NAN reports that all the members of the House of Representatives at the programme were honoured for their responsiveness to their immediate communities.

Responding on behalf of other lawmakers at the occasion, Olatoye said their group — Club 14 — would hand over a brand new car as star prize to the new Miss Oyo.
