A Nigeria Ex beauty Queen who was promised a CAR, a trip to CALIFORNIA for the the crown she won.... ended up getting only N5,000 twice from the Beauty show organizers
Damilola Bolarinde took to her instagram page to share her story ...
My name is Bolarinde Damilola,born June 29 1996. On 14th December 2014 I was crowned the face of Amber organized by @faceofamber
signaling the birth of a new phase in my life. I was beyond ecstatic,I
believed I was blessed and highly privileged to wear such a prestigious
crown or so I thought. As the winner I was promised a brand new car,a
trip to California, modeling contracts, cash prize etc.
Unfortunately,till
now I have received non of my prize, luckily for me I was given the sum
of 5thousand naira twice and nothing more. I have worn the crown for
over 2years with so much sadness and a sense of helplessness.I was
crowned by @melvin0duah
and severally I have vented out my frustration to him on how I have
been unfairly treated by the organizers of Amber pagent but lately he
simply ignores them.
Maybe its the country or perhaps as a people we
feel its okay to walk over the voiceless, why should we feel its normal
to act dishonestly towards others? Why should i not receive what is
rightfully mine? Why should i wear a crown filled with so many thorns?
That I shall never know but what I do know is with this experience I
have learnt a lot in life. On how to be patient,on how to always see the
light at the end of the tunnel, on how to always believe humans will be
always be human and that looks can be deceiving,everything is not
always as it seem.
Although I was unfairly treated, I believe queens
are not just crowned they are also made, as queens we should stand
against injustice in the society.I stand against it!
I hope for a
better country where people are given what duly belongs to them, where
people speak against wrongdoings without fear of reproach, a country
where your word is your bond, a country where hard work is acknowledged
and honesty becomes our benchmark.
On several occasions I have been
asked "queen where is your car, Are you in California now?" but little
do they know that heavy is the head that wears the crown.
Today marks the end of my reign, a new queen will walk the same journey I did. Goodluck!
