Richa Adhias coronation draws mixed reactions

Daily News; Monday,September 03, 2007 @00:03
RICHA Adhia was announced Vodacom Miss Tanzania 2007
on Saturday night, drawing mixed reactions from the
audiences as some cheered, while others muttered words
of disproval.
The 19-year-old led a clean sweep of the top three
positions for the Dar es Salaam beauty queens. Lilian
Abel from Kinondoni finished second, while Queen David
from Temeke finished third.
But the judges decision in everything is final, and
Richa will therefore fly the Tanzanian flag at the
Miss World beauty pageant later this year in China.
She received the crown together with a brand new RAV 4
car worth 45m/- and 8m/- cheque. (USD$30,000 and
$6,000)
Richa particularly impressed the panel of judges, led
by Miss World 2001 Agbani Darego, with her confidence
and articulate answers to questions.
Richa, who was dressed in white long dress, was asked
about her favourite colour to which she responded
white, explaining that the colour symbolized peace
and cleanness for her.
After the Q&A session, which involved the best five,
and colourful performance by the THT group, Miss World
2001 Agbani Darego, who was the chief judge, stepped
forward to announce the winner.
Vodacom Miss Tanzania 2007 is contestant number 6,
Richa Adhia! the Nigerian beauty queen announced,
attracting cheers and murmurs.
The nervous Adhia stepped forward to thank hundreds of
fans packed in the Leaders Club grounds before
replacing Wema Sepetu from the Queens chair.
Some fans gave her a cold shoulder but many others who
dont consider race as an attribute for winning Miss
Tanzania, cheered the new queen.
Members of the jury were Agbani Darego (chairperson),
Prashanti Patel, Jacqueline Ntuyabaliwe, Irene Madeje,
Sophia Dianaku, Salum Kombo, Leons Mtauna, David
Minja, Christian Masiaga and coordinator of the
judges, Ramesh Shah.
