Bakwena Scoops MRS Botswana Crown

The talented woman stole the judges’ hearts after proving to be the fairest of them all. Even though this year’s married women’s beauty pageantry had tight competition, Bakwena did not let her rivals walk away with the crown. She was prepared and fought with everything she had to win the contest. 

She was also given Miss Photogenic and Public Choice awards. When selected for the top seven, she was asked how she would encourage victims of Gender Based Violence (GBV) to speak out because most of them always find it difficult to do so. She responded by saying GBV has escaladed worldwide including in the Botswana and therefore said it was important for victims to know that the police and other stakeholders are there to assist them. She added that she would advise them to speak out and break the silence.
