Ululations and screams of both joy and grief rented the air at Alpha Hotel, as top finalists were selected to compete for MTN’s Billboards.

After a nerve wrecking three hours where the contestants’ ability to reveal their natural beauty, intellect, and appearance was put to test.

Audition judges, who included professional fashion designer and model, Daddy de Maximo Mwicira Mitali, had a challenging time choosing the best among the throngs, who poured into the audition for a chance to win MTN’s coveted prize and goodies.

The 24 shortlisted contestants will participate in the final competition to be unveiled this weekend, November 6, at the gala show which will be held at Serena Hotel, Kigali; where the contestants will compete before the judges and the audience.

Eighteen other contestants will be eliminated during the gala show, paving way for the six left to appear on MTN’s Billboards.

The event is organised by Aimable Kubana, a locally celebrated artist, and radio presenter; and sponsored by MTN, Rwandair, Kigali Serena Hotel, Positive Production, and Simba Supermarket.
