Joy Mojisola Raimi, a 24-year-old beauty queen from Osun State, has emerged as Miss World Nigeria 2025.
The announcement was made by Ben Murray-Bruce, founder of the Silverbird Group, who shared the exciting news on Saturday via his official X handle.
“Congratulations to Joy Mojisola Raimi, the 24-year-old representing Osun State, on being crowned Miss World Nigeria 2025!” Bruce wrote.
The grand finale of the pageant was held at the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, where 37 contestants from various states competed for the prestigious title.
Raimi, a graduate of the University of Port Harcourt, is known for her passion for humanitarian work. She is the founder of ‘The Love for Humanity’ project, a platform aimed at spreading love and restoring faith in humanity.
Bruce noted that during the final round of the competition, Raimi gave a heartfelt account of her difficult childhood, which shaped her into the resilient woman she is today.
“In the final round, Raimi faced off against Miss Imo, Miss Ebonyi, Miss Abuja, and Miss Abia.
“When asked about overcoming bullying, she shared her inspiring story of growing up without a mother and facing harassment from her caregiver.
“She emphasized that despite being told she would never amount to anything, she has proven otherwise by achieving this milestone,” he wrote.
Now holding the crown, Raimi is set to represent Nigeria at the 72nd Miss World pageant scheduled to take place in Hyderabad, India, from May 7 to 31, where she will compete against over 140 contestants from around the world.
