The Ugandan president took to Twitter to brag about Quiin heeding his advice about embracing her natural beauty;
“When we met in Entebbe, I advised Abenakyo to keep her hair natural. I am glad she heeded the advice and re-asserted her African identity. God beautifully created Africans, there is no need to add or subtract anything,” Museveni tweeted.
