President Museveni shades Quinn Abenkyo’s Kiwani

Posted on by Desiree Miller

Upon her arrival back into the country, Miss world Africa was given a heroine’s by a host of family friends and fans. Among these the was state minister for tourism who assured her that their was alot more in stock for her.

She was then ushered to the state house to meet president Museveni who welcomed her and praised her success but most importantly unimpressed by her “Indian” Kiwani.

Below is his full statement.

I congratulate our muzukulu on these accolades and also salute her for recently completing her university degree course. She is a true definition of beauty coupled with brains.

 

Muzukulu Quiin Abenakyo, the current Miss Uganda, who was recently crowned Miss World Africa, this evening paid a courtesy call on me at State House, Entebbe.

 

She also told me she is an advocate of responsible living among young people. She is specifically focusing on helping young girls lead responsible, healthy lifestyles.

 

I must commend Abenakyo’s parents for raising her with values. Many young people today rush into promiscuity and ruin their lives, yet a little patience and completing school would give them a foundation on which to enjoy the rest of their lives with their spouses.

 

Abenakyo is indeed a tall, beautiful Musoga girl. 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.

 

Again, I congratulate Muzukulu Abenakyo on this feat. Going forward, the government will support the Miss Uganda Foundation.

He gave a very great show, which has gone straight to contest for performance of the year.

Posted on by Desiree Miller

The one and only slay prophet Elvis Mbonye came out to furiously respond to president Museveni’s assertion that pastors are exploiting their flock.

In a video that went viral on social media, the prophet also addressed recent reports that government is going to enroll all religious leaders through theology courses before they are allowed on the pulpit.

“My last message shall be a prophecy and that prophecy may not be predictable by now. Mr President have you seen people that are bring exploited gathered in rain by the thousands? How can people gather in rain by the thousands and you hear a lie that you are being exploited? What manner of rubbish is that?” he questioned.

“If the state has plans to subject every belief to the Anglican setting and the catholic setting, whether we will listen to you or to God, you be the judge….If the state is going to determine who is a false prophet and who is not, who is going to heaven and who is going to hell,” he shouted, as his followers cheered on shouting ‘Papa akaaye’ (loosely translated to mean ‘our father is bitter’).

Although many social media people are laughing it off,  many remnants are calling it a last warning to the president.
