Anna Banner

“My Foundation, it's called the Anna Banner Empowerment Foundation, and it is aimed at empowering young girls, young girls who have lost hope in life or because they have a child, they believe life has ended.”

“I joined the Silverbird MBGN family in 2013 and they've been wonderful to me, they've been amazing.”

“If there is one thing I've learnt from my experience as the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria, it's never to give up. Work hard, be persistent.”

“When it was my turn to go down the catwalk in a bikini, I swallowed hard; I couldn't stop feeling that everyone was staring at my butt.”

“Be yourself, put your best into what you do.”

“When my name was called and I was crowned MBGN World, I felt on top of the world. I knew my family and (true) friends would be so proud.”

“I couldn't have purposely got pregnant because I wanted to hook a star. I was already a star too. I wasn't looking for fame; I was even running away from fame.”
