Last weekend, the beautiful and charismatic Grace Ramtu was crowned Miss World Kenya. She emerged victorious after a hotly contested journey that saw 400 models enter the competition.

The charismatic Ramtu is a professional model and elite fashion designer with over five years of experience in the industry. She has her own fashion company called Ramtu Fashion Designs. She holds a diploma in fashion and design and specialises in design and the fashion industry.

Grace Ramtu is a selfless and determined individual who is passionate about mentoring young girls in Kenya and empowering young girls who have experienced sexual abuse. She has been campaigning on her social media platforms to support and motivate victims of sexual abuse. Some of the safe houses she has visited and shared her love with include Maisha Girls Safehouse and her noble course makes her a good role model and motivation for young Kenyan girls everywhere.

Her commitment is evident as she competed for the title of Miss World Kenya last year and finished in the top 5 finalists. That did not stop her from trying again this year and winning. Outside of her professional work and the responsibilities that come with her reign, she enjoys reading books, exploring new experiences, deeJaying and travelling. Her graceful and charismatic nature makes her a deserving winner.
