The government of Uganda through the ministry of tourism has declared Ugandan curvaceous women as source of tourist attraction that will help to boast the country’s economy.

The declaration was made by the country’s minister of Tourism, Kiwanda Godfrey on Wednesday during the launch of an event named “Miss Curvy” where sexy curvaceous women shall be competing each other for a prize.

“We have naturally endowed nice looking women that are amazing to look at. Why don’t we use these people as a strategy to promote our tourism industry?

“If you see a Munyankole woman with curves, there is a story behind that…It will be a beautiful event where young women will showcase their beautiful curves are intellect…Our beauty is not about slimy girls only.”

However, social media critics have punched holes in Kiwanda’s initiative, describing it as a move to advertise prostitutes.

Tourism is a top foreign exchange earner for Uganda and the country last year earned $1.4 billion from the sector.
