Ikubese, a 25-year old actor, got a car, a modelling contract, N1 million prize money and the opportunity to represent Nigeria at the “Mr World” contest in the Netherlands later this year.
He had to shrug off 19 other contestants to emerge winner of the annual contest, organised by the Silverbird Group. The event featured stage appearances in different outfits and performances by the 20 contestants.
The contestants appeared on stage in different attires and gave different artistic performances before being reduced to 10.
The hosts then took them through a question and answer routine before they reduced the group of 10 to five.
Austine Igwilo and Michael Amilo clinched the first and second-runner up positions respectively.
Ikubese said he would use his new position to be a good role model and to inspire millions of youths and encourage them to chase their dreams.
“I am currently part of a campaign against HIV/AIDS and I will also do my own projects. One of them is the fight against domestic violence because I have come across a lot of such violence in the news in recent times.
