Leungo Sephobe, who was recently crowned Miss Royal International Botswana will represent the country at the Miss Royal International beauty pageant in Orlando, Florida (USA) in June. In an interview with Art&Culture, the 14-year-old said she is ready for the international pageantry, as she has prepared a lot.

She added that in her preparations, she took into consideration that as a Motswana on an international stage, she had to surpass everyone. She added that she needed to be 10 times or more better than other contestants. “The most important support I need right now is financial as I am preparing for the international pageant.

I am still looking for sponsors to pay for my flights tickets, accommodation and wardrobe. Besides that, I need people to rally behind my back. I need to know that there are people behind me every step of the way. I encourage all parents to support their children when it comes to their dreams, no matter how small the talent or dream seems because you can never know what the future holds for them,” she said. On other matters, Sephobe advised children that their talents are not meaningless so they should explore and follow them through.
