Miss Uganda 2009 winner Maria Namiiro shall go down in history as the most controversial winner of the beauty pageant ever! Roundly described as a ‘disappointment’, Miss Uganda 2009 was one that left a very bad taste.
According to reports, Maria Namiiro had been lined for the crown right from the start of the contest. To begin with, she was the reigning Miss Uganda UK whose franchise holder Joyce Church was also the organiser of Miss Uganda beauty pageant. Also, Maria was yet again crowned by the same faces that judged her at Miss Uganda UK contest.
As a resident in UK, it was obvious that she would not be anywhere close to represent the country.
Also, she wouldn’t qualify to contest for Miss World as Miss Uganda UK so participating in Miss Uganda in Kampala was her best chance and with the two events organised by the same person, she had a way!
To further cement the allegations, after being crowned winner, she won a month-long trip to UK (her residence). (Of course, she was rushing back home! lol!)
