The organisers of the Miss Universe Nigeria 2025 pageant have officially revealed 22 finalists who will compete for this year’s crown.

The contestants, selected from across the federation, were introduced to the public through the pageant’s website and official social media channels.

Whoever emerges as winner will succeed the outgoing queen, Chidinma Adetshina, and will also represent Nigeria at the Miss Universe international finals later this year.

According to the organisers, the pageant is not only about beauty but also advocacy, as each contestant is expected to promote impactful causes such as education, youth empowerment, health campaigns, and gender equality.

The camp for the finalists opened on Sunday, with the contestants already taking part in grooming, training, and other preparatory activities ahead of the grand finale.

Online voting is currently ongoing on the Miss Universe Nigeria website, where fans can support their favourite contestants ahead of the big night.

The organisers added that the finale will attract high-profile figures from entertainment, fashion, and the corporate world, making it one of the most glamorous events on Nigeria’s social calendar.
