Maureen Nyakira Is Miss East Africa UK 2007 - Entertainment news
 
THE much anticipated Miss East Africa UK 2007 finally took place in September at the prestigious Conway Hall, London. The event saw 21 year old Ugandan medical physics student Maureen Nyakaira steal the crown under a very stiff competition from contestants from Tanzania, Malawi, Kenya, Somalia, Ethiopia and Eritrea. Maureen, who is a student at Cardiff University in Wales, expressed a mixed reaction to winning the crown. "I will remember this night for the rest of my life, at first I was shocked, Is it me really? But then that was my number they called," she said. Meanwhile the crowd cheered as the humble beauty claimed the prestigious title.

However the Head judge of the night Actress Rachel Ritfeld described Maureen as humble, graceful and very natural and she would go along way in raising awareness for East African under privileged children.
