Miss Nigeria Ireland, Deborah Olayinka Gabriel

"Being Miss Nigeria Ireland makes you keep in touch with your heritage. As a role-model, different people are looking up to you. How you dress, your hairstyle. There are strict rules on the type of photos you post on Facebook, and you are encouraged to dress with modestyt's so easy as a young person to lose your way and get distracted by different things. If you have someone you can look up to, someone you would like to emulate when you are growing up, it will help keep you on the right track, " ----- Deborah Olayinka Gabriel the reigning "Miss Nigeria Ireland" remarks after she had had inherited the crown from her predecessor who  was fired for many violations which included dying her hair blonde and posting provocative pictures on line.
