Bio
Representing: Nigeria
Ishioma grew up in Lagos, Nigeria where she was born. She finished her high schooling at Parents Pride high school in 2005 and applied to study Business Administration before entering Nokia's Face Of Africa.
She put her studies on hold to do the competition but still has the ambition of studying so that she can open her own business. Face of Africa is her first experience of modelling and she's embracing it with her go-getter attitude which is summed up by her approach to life, “forward ever, backward never!”
Ishioma entered the competition because she wanted to fulfil her dreams of becoming a supermodel. She loves adventure, cooking and meeting people and wants to do things people are afraid of like climbing mountains.
A supporter of Nigerian talent (including designers Dakova and Deola Sagoe), Ishioma says that it she “on top of the world” to have made it to the KFOA finals in Sun City.
Blessed with a sense of humour, Ishioma has two sisters and speaks English, Igbo and Yoruba.
