Former Miss Nigeria Sylvia Emechete

Former Miss Nigeria Sylvia Emechete has been gifted a Bentley car by her husband Chris.

The gift came as a surprise as she celebrates her 45th birthday on Tuesday.

The former beauty queen shared a video of the luxury vehicle on Instagram, expressing her joy.

She said, “I’m like a child… my heart rules my head. I can’t believe it. Honestly, I was only joking when they said what’s your dream car? I said it’s a B word.

“They said what your ideal colour? I said it starts with a G.. I was just playing o! The Universe said Done!! I’m so grateful for the little things and the big things.”

She wrote about her birthday in another post, “’45 Wonderful Years on This Planet!! What A Blessing! Lord, you have granted me everything… I am truly sheltered in Thy Grace, I beseech Thee, permit me for the rest of my days to be an instrument of Thy peace so that all who come into my space may find joy and rest!’

“I pray for the strength to live in accordance with Thy Will in Creation. I pray that my life continues to be a life of service and thanksgiving to HIM who has given me life. May HIS Love and Blessings permit me the experience of perpetual Joy and Peace. A peace that surpasses all understanding.”

In 2007, Sylvia got married to a multi-millionaire businessman Chris, 54, and relocated to the United Kingdom afterwards.

Now a mother of two girls, Sylvia, who visits Nigeria occasionally, frequently flaunts her lavish lifestyle on social media.

Sylvia won the Miss Nigeria beauty pageant in 2002.
