Miss Uganda (Quiin Abenakyo) has been adviced by Yoweri Museveni, the President of Uganda, to be natural. He has criticized the newly crowned Miss World Africa for wearing Indian hair. He has asked her to lose her wig and go for natural hair to portray true African beauty.

"We must show African beauty in its natural form," the President Museveni tweeted. "It's an unnatural wig, he was saying she should wear her natural hair," he suggested.

Asked what he meant by 'Indian hair', his spokesman Don Wanyama told the BBC, 'Just look at the photo and you will see the type of hair. It's an unnatural wig, he was saying she should wear her natural hair'.

"I congratulate our muzukulu on these accolades and also salute her for recently completing her university degree course," tweeted Museveni. She is a true definition of beauty coupled with brains. My only concern is that she was wearing Indian hair. I have encouraged her to keep her natural African hair. We must show African beauty in its natural form," he tweeted.

Miss Uganda visited the Head of State after she just returned home from China's Sanya. The 22-year old Kampala-born Ugandan model became the first Miss Uganda to make it to the top five finalists in the Miss World contest.
