Read the full interview below:

1. What are your Full Names, Department and Level of Study?
    My name is Tendesai Marwofa. I'm studying International Relations. This is my 2nd year.

2. What are the first 5 things you do every morning after wake up?
    Every morning when i wake up first i try to do a short prayer to thank God for giving me another day, then i check all my social networks lol, then i look for something to eat and that is how my day begins

3. Did taking party in the Miss Africa EMU pageant affect your personal or private life in any way?
    I can not say taking party in the pageant affected my personal or private life because i expected everything that happened. I know people will always have something to say if you do something bad or good. Instead the pageant helped me to become a stronger lady.

4. Some people are still curious, tell us, were you sure of your victory? Or was it a surprise?
    I can say winning was a big surprise to me even though i was confident in what i was doing

5. Why did the chicken cross the road?
    Mmmm i think the chicken crossed the road because it wanted to go to the other side of the road. Lol

6. What is your favourite drink?
    I like pineapple juice.

7. Do you prefer online social interactions or face to face?
    I prefer face to face interactions because it gives the chance to both parties to see each other and its easy to see ones personality when talking face to face.It also gives the room to know the person more like body language and so on.

8. In your opinion, what makes a woman beautiful?
      In my own opinion what makes a woman beautiful is having a good heart and being confident in what ever she do(good deeds).

9. This year, lots of girls will be taking part in the 2016 Miss Africa EMU Beauty Pageant, what is your most important advice to them?
      My advice to the ladies that will be taking part in the 2016 Miss Africa Emu is that they should be prepared for anything that is going to come their way, be it criticism or praise. Many people are going to say things but they  have to stay strong. Some will even discourage you not to take part but follow your heart dear and do what is best for you, not people.Stay strong and know what you want. Don't turn left or right move, forward with your head held high.


10. Very soon you will hand over the crown, what are your last words for your friends, family and well wishers, including haters?
       Soon i will hand over the crown. All i can say to my family and friends is thank you all for making this journey easy. Special s/o to my friend Michelle Nhapi she was my biggest comforter. Not forgetting my haters lol .Thank you also for making me realise how strong i am. All the best to all the ladies who are going to to take part this year!!

**And we thank you Miss Marwofa for granting us this interview. God bless you!
