prestigious African Restaurants called Nigerian Home Kitchen located at 8/9
Brent Street, Hendon, London NW4 2EL. The dinner idea, conceived by the
renowned International PR practitioner and publisher of Nigerian Newspaper
and Diaspora African Magazine, Abiodun Ade Bamidele, in conjunction with
Justina Mutale of Perryfield.
Promotions, organisers of the Miss Zambia UK Beauty Pageant, was well
attended by many African beauty queens and professional models of African
origin based in the UK. This included Miss Kenya UK, Carolina Akinyi
Nyakila. The event was also co-sponsored by Nigerian Home Kitchen CEO, Mrs
Jade Otegbade Onabanjo and Suya Republik. Guests included professional models, businessmen and members of the press.
Miss Zambia UK, Flavia was leader of the Zambian beauty queens and

African and Continental foods and drinks, courtesy of the Nigerian Home
Kitchen, and "Suya" by Suya Republik, followed by an all night dance.

magnate, Chief Stanley Anyanwu gave toast with champagne, which flowed
endlessly.
Justina (CEO Miss Zambia UK) said the event was aimed at uniting Africans
to bring prosperity in Africa as a whole not only Zambia. To be precise, to
encourage the idea of sharing with others for a common purpose. Also,
Publisher Abiodun Bamidele said the event is the beginning of a move
towards a greater African unity, cooperation and collaboration amongst
Africans in the Diaspora, with a view to understanding and appreciating
other African peoples and cultures, which will positively affect the
socio-political lives of Africans at home in Africa.
'I thought this was a positive way forward; I met very good people from
different backgrounds whom I hope will
attend my fundraising events in future, Says Carolina (Miss Kenya UK).
