"I want to support what Dabilo said about Miss Botswana and share an experience that confirms her points. During the Miss Botswana competition in 2009, we witnessed something similar. The organizers called their favorite participant the one they wanted to win into another room when she wanted to withdraw. They told her, 'You are our Miss Botswana, so please don't go.' They probably thought none of us participants were listening, but we went to the door and overheard everything. Despite hearing this, we stayed, thinking maybe we had misunderstood or that fairness would prevail. But on the final day, their favorite girl won, just as we had expected. The management from 2009 is still the same today in Miss Botswana, so nothing has changed. I could even tell who Dabilo was referring to when she kept saying 'she' that person is still in charge. These practices show that fairness and transparency are still issues in these competitions. For them to truly become credible, there needs to be a complete overhaul of leadership and systems.

[@ladysouljarBW]

I’ve had the privilege of experiencing Dabilo’s presence in the modeling world multiple times, and I can confidently say she is incredibly chill, reserved, and modest-showing no signs of a "queen bee" attitude. I hope more people find the courage to speak out against injustices in various organizations so we can drive positive change. This is a new era for Botswana, and meaningful transformation is long overdue.

[@gigilove4808]

I watched Emma Wareus interview with Scar, she volunteered to help with Miss Botswana as she has the experience but the management refused and told those girls not to speak to Emma. Imagine Emma Wareus who has a relationship with the Miss World owner, they refuse her counsel.

[@goitseoneketlhalefile9651]

Most girls keep quiet ka hostile treatment ya pageants. It is Very bold to whistle blow. More girls should come out. This is wide spread. My daughter went through same treatment In another pageant.

[@nikkiseduku7829]

The only difference here is, she has a platform and we are in times of changes so it's catching even better fire. I'm one of the models that speaks out on Injustice ya pageantry but most times I got dismissed by those who have platforms mainly because of their affiliations with the organisations.

[@baengmoeng4244]

You can only truly understand her if you've experienced similar situations yourself. It's difficult to put into words the atmosphere and people's reactions without them saying anything. I understand you, Dabilo, and I'm so glad you spoke out. You were treated unfairly- those girls felt so threatened by you that they became consumed by their own insecurities, which was their problem, not yours. This was the moment where your resilience had to shine because institutions often disregard emotions and mental health e nna e kare o tsosa modumo and being loud. By speaking out, you gave a voice to young girls who have faced similar challenges, and I am incredibly proud of you. You tackled something most of us choose to suppress, burying the pain and letting it quietly erode our confidence over time. For your courage and strength, you truly deserve a crown. Thank you for saying what so many of us have struggled to articulate at some point ❤

[@DineoSegosapelo]

True

[@corteztt518]

She’s not what she thinks she’s. The competition got too much for her and wanted to dictate things her way. And people didn’t listen to her manipulation.

[@nikkiseduku7829]

I can relate, I've been deemed as more of a problem only because I don't conform without questioning, and if yiu have your own will and speak your mind they blackball you, and mind you even the contestants would see it and ask how I'm praised as one of the performing models but still lose out.

[@androidtvbox5962]

nah she thought she better than her competitors

Miss Hope International 2021, the winner was a girl who's dad was sponsoring the competition. And mind you, we had complained about her being problematic, a nale a close relationship le the Director ba bitsana bo Mama and all.

[@ChidohPoliteness]

Dabilo you are amazing. Go for miss universe. You are destined for greatness. Such boldness is needed. If you give up then you disappoint not only yourself but the people that love and support you. Love you so much.

[@tshepisongwako9982]

I'm so disappointed on the contestants... What happened to sisterhood? Is it always going to be women mistreating another one... A ko re tseaneng sentle re emella neng. I honestly don't blame you for quitting I mean who would want to compete in an environment that isn't conducive enough rather put your mental health and peace first Buh anyway team Debby all the way❤️❤️

Miss Botswana Red Flags 🚩🚩🚩 1. Palesa was supposed to win a car, they changed last minute and said she'll win P100000. 2. Lesego Chombo didn't get her package and they forced her to come out in public and say she didn't join the pageant for prizes.....🙄no one spends a lot of money participating in a pageant not expecting to win anything. 3. Anicia won under the same management that made her win Miss Teen International...what Dabilo means when she says they already know their chosen winner even at boot camp stage. Miss Botswana management needs to change!!!

[@nikkiseduku7829]

I was one of the contestants when Anicia Won...

[@gigilove4808]

@nikkiseduku7829 do you feel like it was a fair competition?

[@Drip3657]

Dabs is so well spoken,i can listen to her all day❤

This kid has a point. Well maybe not the right platform but Miss Botswana really needs an overhaul urgently

[@blackpearldisho3317]

I believe you Dabilo🥺 Thank you for being bold🫂

O buile ngwana wa Modimo, I believe you ..heal from the trauma Dabs much love ❤

[@charlesseakamela6212]

So proud of Dabilo cos a confident woman confront her stressors and overcome her challenges and by doing so she helps other women to confront their challenges too.By speaking up against bullying and injustices in pageantry will also help others to come out and make pageants more accomodative and healthy

[@lindamodibedi9799]

20:13 one thing about Pageantry ya Botswana there has to be Favouritism involved 😢 everything is not done on Professionalism.......Winner yabo e setse e itsewe before the competition even begins 😢 39:47 tota am not surprised ka last year's management being management ya this year and with such rumors 😭🙌 What a bad experience Dabilo has gone through

[@kutlwanontsima7252]

Last year they weren't the same management but rather they employed nicole to groom lesego afterwards nicole tock over ele managing director and she employed those other former miss botswana except Emma.

[@ThaboGaosikelwe]

Eish, I want to believe her but then there are 3 sides to a story, Her side, their side and the TRUTH. It seems she won it before the competition started.

[@pearlrosefisha]

i believe Dabilo but i am questining the interviewer's intentions with this interview, this is giving we are not doing it for the best of the country but for views based on the questions they are asking her, however love and light to Dabilo, she is an incredible young woman and we wish you healing in all of this

[@pearlrosefisha]

but there was no need to mention Palesa and other former queens, why is Dabilo bringing her down like that.

[@gigilove4808]

The way Anicia won is proof that there's favouritism.

[@diamondvisualsbw3215]

Nnyaa motho wa modimo oska golega ngwana wa batho she outperfomed the favourites at the final stage in front of external judges and she even faced rejection during her reign as a crown holder and she had to go complain ko bo Moeladilotlhoko.

People cannot be saying the same thing about you Queen, you must reflect.

[@maureenkalane4769]

There was a top comment that is now deleted- that person said ga a utlwe gore Dabilo a reng. Really! What is the person talking about? The person was possibly one of the corrupt management or the evil contestants who were intimidated by Dabilo. This is loud and clear! Dabilo is describing the typical Batswana behaviour- self low esteem, victimisation, unfair treatment, evil nature, malice, corruption. Happy you left Dabilo. You have good character and values. Check Chidimma and her suffering and where she is. Have a come back one day and show them what you are made of, ngwanaka. Over to God. May God direct your path. You are winner!

Shame I can feel her pain. The unfairness and favoritism displayed in all these shows can break one if you truly believe in them. Be it award ceremonies, pageantry, modelling and show business. They all seem to have gate keepers who think it is their duty to decide who enters and wins and who doesn't. What a shame! But you can still build your brand Dabilo. You can still build it all by yourself and be the best model that you wanna be. When you do that no one can stop you.
