News coming in is that the Ugandan Tourism minister came out to say that Miss World Africa Abenakyo was replaced with with socialite Anita Fabiola because the TV Star has a bigger social media following.
Looking at the followings ; Anita Fabiola has 384,000 followers on instagram , 181,000 followers on facebook and 19800 followers on Twitter while Miss Uganda Quinn Abenakyo has 1,248 followers on instagram , 30,000 followers on facebook and 2460 followers on Twitter.
Minister of Tourism Godfrey Kiwanda , came out earlier defending their decision of leaving out Quinn Abenakyo and bringing in Anita Fabiola by saying that ‘socialites’ have always been neglected yet they have the numbers to sell Uganda. The minister has also revealed that they had no standing agreement with Abenakyo regarding the tour.
He further says “The girls we move with, Anita Fabiola and Zari Hassan, are always on social media and they have a huge following. We are using their social media numbers to expose Uganda, “As a ministry we don’t have any formal agreement with Abenakyo to headline the Tulambule tour. The project is run on goodwill basis, and we expect Quinn to be part of the tour on the next legs which will be heading to other regions of the country, particularly she might be part of the Nortehrn region tour which will be the next leg after the eastern tour.”
