Oliver Nakakande, 24, from Bombo, a student pursuing Business Administration is the new Miss Uganda 2019-2020 replacing Quiin Abenakyo who represented Uganda in the Miss World beauty pageant.
Quiin Abenakyo made it to the top three only to become Miss World Africa.
The beauty pageant was on Friday held at Sheraton Hotel Kampala with Zari Hassan as one of the judges. The Winner, Oliver Nakakande, walked away with a top prize car of a Toyota Wish, red in color.
