By Victor Enengedi

Genevieve Nnaji will feature as a guest judge at the 2013 Miss Earth Nigeria.

The Nollywood star was recently announced alongside other international stars such as Austrian-born actor and former model, Boris Kodjoe, Amber Rose, Karly Redd and Kelechi Amadi Obi.

Director of the Nigerian arm of Miss Earth International, Ibinabo Fiberesima had earlier told NET reporters that ‘the year’s edition would be different because we are currently in talks with top dignitaries who are passionate about the environment and the earth at large’.

Fiberesima, a former beauty queen and current President of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria, AGN, has been co-ordinating the pageant for about a decade now.

Nollywood actress, Ufuoma Ejenobor is a product of the pageant, as she had competed and won the crown in 2004 before delving into the movie industry.

The eventual winner will represent Nigeria at the World Miss Earth Pageant in the United States later in the year.
