Miss Ideal Nigeria has a new queen. Nineteen-year-old Angel Emeka of Imo State clinched the Miss Ideal Nigeria 2025 crown at the “Finding Her Season” edition, after a finale that ran from late November 2 into the early hours of November 3. The closing show thrilled a packed audience with a confident blend of empowerment.
In a tightly contested finish, Queen Omo Bolaji (Lagos State) was announced first runner-up, while Queen Musumola (Ondo State) emerged second runner-up and received the Miss Ideal Nigeria Tourism 2025 title.
Founded in 2014 by the House of Twitch, Miss Ideal Nigeria positions itself as a development platform for young women across the country—pairing pageantry with mentorship, skills training, and opportunities in fashion, tourism, and media. Consistent with tradition, the winner and runners-up are slated to represent Nigeria on international stages, including Miss Global Beauty Queen, Miss Tourism World, and Top Model of the World.
Angel succeeds outgoing titleholder Nehita Ofure Irieme (Edo State). Organisers praised this year’s cohort for community-driven projects and polished stagecraft, noting that the class of 2025 “reflects the ambition and grit redefining Nigerian pageantry.”
While full scoring details were not disclosed, judges cited poise, articulation in the interview rounds, and a clear social-impact vision among decisive factors. Angel’s victory caps a season in which contestants leaned into advocacy themes ranging from girls’ education to creative-economy inclusion.
With the national crown secured, attention now shifts to international preparations—wardrobe camps, media drills, and project rollouts—where Team Nigeria will look to convert domestic momentum into global placement. For pageant fans, Miss Ideal Nigeria’s pipeline is thriving, and 2025’s queens are ready to travel, tell Nigeria’s story, and compete.
