Comfort Williams’ journey with Miss Taraba
Williams was crowned the 10th Miss Taraba in 2023, marking an important milestone in her journey with the pageant.
Her involvement with the organisation continued beyond her reign as a beauty queen.
In January 2026, Prime Planet appointed her Assistant Managing Director as part of a seven-member leadership team known as Team 7, reports The Guardian.
The new structure also named Tabitha Adda as Managing Director and Leah Lot Mangbon as Head of Contestants.
Williams had also joined other Taraba pageant winners on a visit to Senator Manu Haruna at the National Assembly in Abuja in October 2024.
In its tribute, Prime Planet extended its condolences to Williams’ family, friends and loved ones.
The organisation also expressed how much her absence would be felt by those who worked with her.
“You will forever remain a part of the Prime Planet family. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten,” it said.
