- On Friday, November 16, 2001, Nigeria’s Agbani Darego beat off Aruba, Scotland, China, Nicaragua, and 88 other nations from around the world to the Miss World 2001 crowning. She was just 18 years and 329 days old.
Darego was also the first indigenous African to win the Miss World title in Sun City, South Africa, and has remained a role model to the average young African girl who dreams to equal her feat.
A projected global television audience of 1.2 billion people watched 18-year-old Miss Nigeria, Agbani Darego became the first black African to win the Miss World title at Sun City, South Africa, November 16, 2001.
Darego captured the title ahead of Aruba's Zerelda Lee, Scotland's Juliet-Jane Horne, and 90 other beautiful contestants around the world. #HistoryVille #MissWorld #AgbaniDarego

This still hits different. Was a pivotal moment for African women to realize that the world actually sees our beauty. She did not bleach her skin or do surgery, just pure beauty and intellect. Hopefully, we can go back to this type of class.
That moment the innocent looking, towering 6ft plus, Agbani Darego, put Nigeria on the global map of beauty icons! A star is a star! This one was born to shine!
She stood out uniquely from the others. Well deserved 🙌🏿
I remember my family crowded around the TV watching this event when I was 9 yrs old. My mom & her friend were quite overjoyed
The fact that priyanka was her predecessor and crowned her just gives me some feels🤗
Same here
What Feel ...?
I love Miss Nigeria...Soo Beautiful and Sweet 😊❤️❤️❤️❤️
She had the sweetest smile of them all.
I AM PROUDLY A NIGERIAN. SHE IS SOOOO BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️❤️.
I just realized that Priyanka Chopra handed over the crown 👑 to agbani Darego, BEAUTIFUL
Grew up with tales of Agbani. I was called Agbani growing up too. Soo cool
I was really proud of myself as a Nigerian that very night It was like a dream and I thank the organizers for being honest as they crowned her based on her outstanding performance and intellect.That very day I knew Nigeria is a nation that is blessed among all African countries
I like Aruba answer the most to be honest. Nigeria was definitely good as well
She is absolutely gorgeous, and still is
She's so beautiful
Yes she is one of the most beutiful black Woman in the world
❣️
I remember that Agbani was frontrunner whole night that time. Shes clearly the choice that year
she is stunning melanin
Agbani,Dont let nobody push,stop and take it away from you I would like somebody like you to meet my mom and my sister it is like giving my mom a Mother's Day gift and giving my family a Christmas present it has to have a special person that can take me to go Christmas shopping 🛒 to surprise my family to carry me and my sister to take us somewhere at 5:00 in the afternoon Greetings from Massachusetts USA 🇺🇸
We would've had more wins if it wasn't for those extremist riots in Abuja. When the pageant was to come to our country. They really messed up for every African country after that. I really almost wish Nigeria hadn't been first African country to win because of that.
Hmmm.
what are you saying?
I get you sis... I just keep rooting for any woman of (clear) Sub-Saharan African descent and try to push that put of my mind... The Lord help this "country'(or whatever they call it)🙄🥺.
Yes that's so true...
Now how do we win again?
I love Nicaragua's candidness.
From miss universe to miss world 🌍🌍🌍 well deserve here from the Philippines
I was emotional while watching this video. This is a country we all once loved. But now to hell with the unity of Nigeria. This country was build upon injustice and wickedness.
Goosebumps 😭❤️
Im also a black girl from sri Lanka, i would like to be a beauty queeen like that, but in here people are thinking black girls are uglly. They love fairness. But i think black is beautiful as well fairness girls,
You are beautiful. Black is beautiful. What you think of yourself is far more important than what anyone else thinks. Love yourself!
She looks like miss universe Angola 2011,they both have the same doll like features
Nope they don't
❣️
Exactly!
They look like blood sisters
They don't look alike, but they have the same princess classic type of beauty.
The last question for her came from India, and the crown was handed her by an Indian.
She's so pretty and very bold. Love ya baby 😚😚
Beautiful Nigerian woman
Agbani is so elegant and classy ❤ of course she’s a Nigerian woman.
Give credit to collectible fashion for helping her fashion. She was my model at collectible 🙌🏾
ABSOLUTELY VERY BEAUTIFUL FLAWLESS ❤️❤️❤️ CHE'S SO MARAVILHOSA GIRL
I BET HER LATE MOTHER MISSED HER IN HEAVEN
Is that Jerry Springer?why didn't they fight?...lol
Hahaha
I remember the slap my father gave me because of agbani darego. That I should come and see my fellow woman. Any question they ask the contestant he want me to answer it before them. Each come with a slap bonanza
Lol
Bless you
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
i will never forget Nicaragua's answer... its not appropriate but its cute and funny
I can't believe she said that
It’s embarrassing
Agbani❤️
The moment when miss Nicaragua knew she had fucked up was funny.
She should have just used her interpreter
@@ebereezike3448 Well, it’s 20+ years ago, let’s cut her some slack! 😩
Scotland looks disappointed.... Aruba has the best gown ive seen!.. ever and neck to neck with Nigeria and i would say She deserves the Title of Miss World
Solid answer with uniquely class & beauty.
She is beautiful inside and out....her face is perfect oval
Miss China, Miss Nicaragua gave a very wrong answer, they sounded like amateur, Miss Scotland was just shaking even Miss Nigeria was shaking, the last person answered well
true Aruba answered better, but judgement was overall not just the question segment
Darego beautiful woman black
Nicaragua screwed up real bad.
some of these questions are ridiculous. why on earth should the candidate of MISS World answer a question on what she would do spending a day as a man
GREATEST PAGEANT EVER
Congratulations dear
If you came here from Instagram hit the button 😂
just trying to say something great about her beauty without mentioning the skin color !
Lindaaaaaaaaaaaaa nigeria
Nicaragua nasty answer
Very nasty, she sounded so confused
MW has always loved cooking.
Pls explain the cooking
She looks like Wilma Doesnt a filipino actress and comedian.
I think she's a miss universe that got away
You are absolutely right. Her WALK during Miss Universe worked against her.
Miss Aruba Look Likes Miss Universe Indonesia 2008 Zivanna Leitisha
Miss Aruba Zizi lee ❤❤❤
Wow
❤️❤️❤️
Her hair at Miss universe was better
But she didn't win in miss universe she won miss world with hair up😆
@@borneo_ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 exactly
China's interpreter was the worst ever
She didn't even understand English not more than the person she was interpreting for
Very poor answers😂🙅♂️❌😂
💜👑👌😍
Her answer isn't convincing. Q&A is for black SAns always
See,the make-up can do wonders!
V v beautiful. Agebani Durango.
NICARAGUA SHE IS MORE BEAUTIFUL🇳🇮👑😝
She is beautiful but I disagree that she is more beautiful than Miss Nigeria.
Her answer to the question is also disgusting!
Miss Nigeria is more prettier than her
Lies
