Miss SD gives glass set to Miss World Charity
By PHEPHILE MOTAU
MBABANE – Miss Swaziland Nompilo Mncina gave a glass set of a man and woman in Swazi traditional regalia to the Miss World Charity.
This happened on Monday night during a Charity Ball in London, United Kingdom, where Mncina is currently touring with 119 other Miss World contestants. According to the Miss Swaziland Director Vinah Mamba-Gray, the glass set was bought from the Ngwenya Glass Factory and is worth E500.
Stocked
She also bought another unique glass set to be given as a gift to the Miss World Director Julia Morley. She added that Mncina also stocked up a lot of Swazi necklaces and beadworks to give to fellow contestants.
The Ball brought the finalists together for a night of International fundraising and world class entertainment. All 120 young ladies donated an exclusive gift from their home country.
Yesterday Mncina left London for Abu Dhabi where she will participate in a fashion extravaganza. Mamba-Gray said she communicated with Mncina on Monday night over the phone to get to know how she was progressing.
Problem
“I talked to her just yesterday (Monday) and she told me that all was well,” she said.
Mncina had a problem with her departure last week Friday as she spent sometime stranded at the O.R airport because of her excess luggage. She had only E2 000 on her at that time and the authorities at the airport wanted her to pay E3 000.
It was later reported that she arrived safely in London after paying the required amount. Miss Swaziland spokesperson Rheodora Isaacs said Mncina still had a problem with her excess luggage. Mncina and the rest of the contestants will stay for two weeks in London before returning to South Africa where the finals will be held on 12 December.
