After bidding to host the Mister Africa International pageant in 2014 against Ghana, Botswana’s First Models Management (FMM) Company won the bid.

FMM, in partnership with House of Twich which is London-based, will host the first ever Mister Africa International on December 3 at Fairground Holdings from 7pm until late. Botswana’s representative will be Mr Ideal Botswana, Joseph Jojo Wellio who won the pageant on October 31 at the Chiefs Monument by Central Business District (CBD). FMM bought the franchise of House of Twich for the year 2015-2016.  Representatives from 31 countries will convene in Gaborone from across the globe so as to compete for the title of Mr Africa Ideal.  These 31 men will arrive in Botswana on November 29.

“Pageants enthusiasts can look forward to a night of glitz and glam as we are bringing only the best,” said FMM events manager, Kefilwe Mukokoni. She further explained that Wellio is the best representative for Botswana.
