“We decided to host this pageant with the main aim of bringing out the hidden beauty of our young ones, to reflect a true Namibian since we are also planning to approach the Miss Namibia organisers for endorsement so that whoever wins Miss Zambezi this year can will automatically qualify for the Miss Namibia beauty pageant next year,” says Simataa.
