Until Silverbird organised the first male beauty pageant in 2007, not many believed that Nigerian men could be so cute. Lady's man, Ikenna Bryan Okwara, who is now based in South Africa, is the immediate past Mr. Nigeria (2007-2009).

He also represented Nigeria at the 2009 Mr. World Pageant in China and made it to the semi-final in the Mister World 2007 competition for Nigeria
