It’s been a while we posted here. You can tell we have been so busy trying to get everything perfect for October 13, 2007. We had the delegates send their portraits and they are beautiful and very talented. We have collected almost all the talent sheets and it’s amazing what these girls are going to perform at the 2007 Miss Nigeria in America Beauty Pageant.
