She actually died a while back but I just heard about it. Helen Anyamelune was Miss Nigeria in 1958.
She was the second woman to be so crowned in the history of beauty pageants in Nigeria. She died on Saturday July 28 2012, after a protracted illness. She was 75 years old. She will be buried in October. May her soul rest in peace...Amen.

Beauty really is only skin deep, we should NEVER base excess importance on look or fame or even wealth , they can only get us so far. The quality of life and impact in lives we meet makes all the difference, as we thank God for the beautiful Helen Anyameluna's life, we Must reflect on the Quality of ours and what we use it for whilst we still have the strength
I had the priviledge of meeting Mrs Anyameluna a few years ago. She was a lovely woman with a kind soul. What struck me most about her was her beauty and penchant for cleanliness. May her beautiful soul rest in peach and may God grant her kids the fortitude to bear this loss.
She was really pretty. R.I.P ex mgbn
Rest in peace.
She was a beauty.
This woman was pretty,an looked younger than her age.May she rest in peace.Smart woman,as in miss nigeria 1950s.
