This selfless act stems from her deep-seated passion, aligning with the Queen of Queens Beauty Pageant’s goal to address hunger and starvation, recognising their devastating impact on individuals and societal security.

The logistics of this endeavour were facilitated by the generous support of Chief Executive Officer of Sequence Lounge Maitama, Mr. David Uzoma Alozie, who provided a fully fueled truck for transportation. Additional notable financial contributions were received from Director of Ask Medical and Diagnostics, Dr. Jamil, friends, family and fans.

Queen Benedicta’s initiative aims to satisfy the immediate hunger needs of beneficiaries, alleviating their suffering. She also hoped to convey a powerful message to the public, leaders and government, emphasizing that collective action can mitigate hunger and its consequences. She want to inspire collaborative efforts toward sustainable solutions, fostering a safer and more compassionate society.

“Hunger is a pandemic that affects us all, directly or indirectly,” Queen Benedicta stated. “I envision a Nigeria where everyone has access to nutritious food, and I invite individuals, organisations and government agencies to join me in this fight,” she said.
