The reigning Miss World Botswana, Lesego Chombo, is not only making waves on the beauty pageantry but she is also doing wonders through her multi-talents with a passion for poetry, music, and hairstyling.

In an interview with Showtime, Chombo shared that her journey as a poet began in junior school when her English teacher recognised her talent and encouraged her to participate in the Poet-Okavango competition.

"At the competition, I secured the second position on the first year and the following year I got position one, which boosted my confidence and love for poetry," Chombo said.

In addition to her artistic talents, Chombo has a new found skill in hairstyling.
