The MCs, performers, models and entertainers took away the crowd throughout the night as they anticipated for the announcement of winners.

Each and every one of the models looked forward to beat the other judging from their designs and outfits. At the end of the night, there was only one winner and here it was not all about who was more perfect but whose face could be identified in a second by the people.

An interview with one of the judges,the former Miss Kisii University on her choice of winners proved futile at first but Fotophreak Magazine managed a moment with her and here is what she had to say:
“I was once a contestant and I’m also a model, this means I understand who’s best for a crown, not on the basis of beauty only but brains too. Using a crown to take back to the society. We settled for Sharon Ogake among other reasons, her complete African beauty, her choice of designs and her answers on the Q&A session. She was just spectacular. “
Fotophreak followed up the winners who had mixed feelings of excitement and surprise saying that it was tough and so competitive and neither of them expected a win. Most of them being holders of other crowns added that they were familiar with the stage and had trained well. The only challenge was with the designers where some models could not be able to find really good designs that could match up to what they colleagues had.
All eyes are now set on the beautiful Sharon Ogake to see the level of impact she will bring to society with her new crown and especially among the large student populace in Eldoret and society at large. Fotophreak Magazine has now officially set foot in Eldoret, Nakuru and its environs and we look forward to bringing you all the juice from fashion and modeling events from that part of this beautiful country.
