Ugandan Tourism queen shines at Miss Tourism World

 

 

Ayebare, 24, was over the weekend crowned the fourth runner-up, meaning she finished fifth in the competition that attracted beauty queens representing various countries around the world. The grand finale took place on Saturday evening in the presence of a host of tourism ambassadors, business and enthusiasts from across the globe.

 

The grand crown for the 74th annual pageant was won by Julijana Nikolis, 20, representing Australia.

 

Ayebare was the 2nd runner-up in the last Miss Tourism Uganda 2017/2018. She was also the Miss Tourism Ankole 2018.

 

The Miss World official website profiles Ayebare as a "Tourism Ambassador who enjoys singing, traveling and gymnastics."

 

As Tourism Ambassador for Uganda, the website quotes the beauty queen, "I am proud to be a Tourism Ambassador for Uganda as with the experience I have had as a tourism ambassador in my country, I have been able to fight against climate change through tree planting in various regions. I believe if this was carried on by the rest of the world, we can change the world for the future generations to come."

 

Ayebare was recently flagged off the Uganda Tourism Board (UTB) boss, Lily Ajarova to be an ambassador of Ugandan Tourism.

 

This comes at the backdrop of continued concerted efforts by different stakeholders to promote Uganda as a top tourism destination.

 

Ayebare's achievement comes less than a year after Miss Uganda 2017, Quinn Abenakyo stunned Ugandans with an impressive performance as popular and prestigious Miss World pageant.
