A 19-YEAR-OLD Nigerian law student, Hannah Osunsina, has been crowned the most beautiful black girl in Britain.
The University of Bedfordshire student defeated 16 other finalists to win the coveted crown at Old Trafford, Manchester, last Saturday.
Osunsina, from Peckham, Southeast London, had 10 GCSE A- Levels and will now be groomed to be a voice and face for the black community in the UK.
A combination of brain and beauty, the teenager is already looking ahead and hopes to become a barrister, specialising in civil law, after her graduation.
After her coronation, Osunsina said: "I am so happy and proud to have won Miss Black Britain. It is a very big opportunity for me to be in a position now to help and support young black girls who have got on the wrong side of life and have problems."
She disclosed that her aim, in taking part in the competition, was two-fold, "I entered this competition to be able to model, whilst helping others that are less fortunate."
Organiser of Miss Black Britain, Aneka Johnson, said: "We are so pleased for Hannah as she projects beauty with intelligence. But more importantly, the black community in this country has a beauty role model to represent them and Hannah will be ideal to send out positive messages and be a new face to the model world.
"Miss Black Britain is not just a beauty contest, but also a stage to give the black people a spokesperson and mentor."
