The beauty queen is a student in Economic Law at Haute école de gestion Arc of Neuchâtel, Suisse. Miss Cameroon 2018, who is former Miss Cameroon Switzerland, says during her mandate, she will focus on the fight against blindness, particularly among albinos.

The fourth and fifth runners up were Lucie Johanna Eyike Nemi and Louise Mileine Essangui Mack respectively. During the colourful event which lasted over three hours, the young girls which mostly represented the ten regions of the country cat-walked in various attires ranging from traditional wears to outdoor attires, swimsuits and evening gowns.
They also danced to the rhythm of various songs to the pleasure of the audience. Organised by the Miss Cameroon National Committee (COMICA) the competition is in its 13th edition under the patronage of the Ministry of Culture.
The Matron of COMICA, Henriette Sournac, used the occasion to laud the presence of the First Lady whose motherly affection was felt by all the young girls participating in the contest.
According to Henriette Sournac, Mrs Chantal Biya's presence at the Yaounde Conference Centre late into the night was not just to honour young girls but a proof to her commitment to support where there is investment. - Online Sources
