Speaking shortly after the event, the excited and fulfilled event manager/coordinator of Miss tourism Niger delta , Iyabor ikponmwosa Dominic, popular with his stage name ‘D' GREAT IK’ said he is happy the contest did not follow the trend in the beauty pageant industry where winners are known before the end of the pageant, but rather, it is totally out for the game and suspense where the crowned queen will know that her crown didn’t just come easy, so as to enable her work to save promote the tourism industry across Niger delta and redefining modelling, which is models aren't prostitute which is what the competition represents.

He further called on the federal government and other relevant agencies to support this laudable project that aims at reaching the health under-serve citizens.
