Africa-Press – Botswana. <\/strong><\/span>Mmoloki Thindimba of Ghani and Constance Tuvare of Xaixai beat their fellow contestants to the Mr and Miss RADP titles for the Okavango District Council on Saturday.<\/b><\/p>\n

The duo will represent the district at the pageant finale.<\/p>\n

They did well in the culture and evening gown parades, confidence, stage presence and responses to judges\u2019 questions to win coveted titles.<\/p>\n

Thindimba, aged 24, who was trying his luck for the second time said he was happy with the results adding that his never-die-attitude paid off.<\/p>\n

Twenty-one-year-old, Tuvare, who made her maiden appearance at the pageant was happy that she won.<\/p>\n

Evelyn Ketjimanbo of Qangwa and Atamelang Koshunya of Tobera were crowned first and second princesses respectively while Kenalemang Soria of Xaixai and Uatumbovandu Gabogolelwe are first and second princes.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Access Bank-Shakawe centre manager, Bob Makgetho, who was guest speaker, said the pageant recognised talent of young men and women from their remote areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the pageant, the council is levelling the ground for the young people to show that they can compete with their counterparts from across the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The pageant, which initially started with females only has since incorporated males.<\/p>\n

He said Okavango District Council spent P34 000 in the pageant, of which, P17 000 was reserved for prize moneys.<\/p>\n

He said the event was also made possible through the generosity of other sponsors such as Botswana Savings Bank.<\/p>\n

Okavango District Council acting council secretary, Iris Sitayelo said winners would go and compete in the nationals directly follwing the upgrading of the district from a sub-district to a fully-fledged one.<\/p>\n

The council\u2019s chief social and community development officer, Michael Israel said the pageant, whose one of the objectives was to unearth talent from remote areas, targeted females aged between 18-25 and males aged between 18-27.<\/p>\n

He said the aim was for the youth to have a role in the economy, to have confidence and compete with counterparts.<\/p>\n

The contestants were from Gudigwa, Tobera, Ghani, Chukumuchu, Xaixai and Qangwa.<\/p>\n
