Marking the 30th anniversary of the award, the finalists will file out at the Eko Hotels & Suites Vitoria Island on Friday September 15th 2017 where a new winner will emerge.
Before then, they would be in camp for a fortnight where they would be exposed to the intricacies of how to become a winner.
