MISS SOUTH AFRICA 2022: NDAVI NOKERI REFLECTS BACK ON HER JOURNEY
The Tzaneen, Limpopo-born model has already achieved so much in her 24 years and decided to reflect back on her journey. Earlier this year, she represented South Africa and contested at the 71st edition of the Miss Universe pageant which was held in New Orleans, United States. She made it to the top 16.
At just 23, Ndavi Nokeri won the Miss South Africa crown alongside runner-ups Lebogang Mahlangu and Ayanda Thabethe, News24 reported. Since her reign, she has been focused on her campaign and said giving back in the space of education is really all she’s ever wanted to do. According to IOL, during her crowing, she was quoted as saying,
“South Africa currently has the highest inequality rates globally. Having been exposed to extreme poverty as a child and thereafter being granted the opportunity to attend advantaged schools, I witnessed the negative effects of the great and unfair divide in this country.”
“My mission is to bridge that gap. Fundamentally, every young person is given the opportunity to cultivate their talents, intelligence, and skills, regardless of their background. This will enable us to reduce inequality by tackling the root causes of unemployment in South Africa,” Miss South Africa added.
