The race for Miss Uganda 2019/2020 crown is close to the finish line.

 

Tonight, at Sheraton Kampala Hotel, Ugandans will have a new queen, ending the illustrious reign of Quiin Abenakyo. The anticipation in the Miss Uganda camp is high.

 
Twenty participants are eyeing the crown. Obviously, Abenakyo's successor will have a heavy task to emulate the lady who now doubles as reigning Miss World Africa.
