Eleven-year-old Wendy
Olulanu Kasumu has emerged
the Best of the Best Child
Model of the World 2010 in far away Bulgaria.
The contest, which featured
more than 42 countries in
various categories, saw Wendy coming tops and crowned the
overall winner of the event.
Speaking about her experience at a press
conference organised by AJ
Trimec, Olakas Techniques,
Modela Couture and
Powerhouse at City Mall,
Onikan, Lagos, Wendy said
winning the Best of the Best
Child Model of the World 2010
had brought her untold fame.
She attributed her triumph to
the unflinching support she
got from her parents.
Wendy also recalled that
representing Nigeria and
showcasing her numerous
cultures gave her an edge
over contestants from other
countries.
The father of the JSS 1 student
of Jiba College, Surulere, Mr.
Olulanu Kasumu, expressed
gratitude to God, saying that
being the father of the Best of
the Best Child Model of the
World was the best thing that
had happened to his family.
But he called on the government for support,
because, according to him,
"there are many untapped
talents in every Nigerian child
waiting to be explored."
The Coordinator, Best Child
Model of the World, Nigeria,
Samuel Orheruata, added that
by being the Best of the Best
Child Model of the World
2010, Wendy had brought
honour not only to her family
and school, but to Nigeria as a
whole.
