Modeling Is My Passion-Jamaican Exopa Queen


Makedeh
The 20-year-old winner of the January edition of Exopa New Faces contest, Makedah, is celebrating her reign with all the excitement a winner deserves.
She has confessed to NEWS-ONE that she was indeed happy to have won the contest.
“When the show started, I thought I may not win but as time went on, I realized that I have a chance. So I was really happy to emerge winner. I will definitely tell my friends that I joined an international modelling agency in Ghana. I am really happy at what I am doing and in future I am sure I will continue with modelling.”
The January edition of the Exopa contest was indeed exciting. All 10 female contestants were determined to win but after four rounds of fierce catwalks and dancing, 20-year-old UK based Jamaican Makedah proved herself worthy of the crown as the best model of the night.
Twenty-seven-year-old Ugandan model and Business Administration Degree holder from the University of Makerere, Nissi Susan Onyok, and South African Jacqueline Mhlange placed second and third respectively. 
Makedah said her passion for modelling was the main reason she joined the contest.
“Modelling is my passion. I love modelling. You know being in front of the crowd in the modelling clothes gives you a chance to show what comes naturally. So I enjoyed the Exopa show,” she stated.
Makedah is a Jamaican but was born and raised in the UK, where she also studied music technology, psychology and music performance.
She said she was in Ghana for the first time for a long vacation and while in town, somebody told her about Exopa and soon after she had a text message prompting her about the Exopa New Faces contest. So she decided to be part of it and eventually became a winner.
