A first-year student at Lira University, who earlier won the Miss Tourism Northern Uganda pageant, has been crowned Miss Tourism Uganda 2024/25 after stiff competition from 29 other competitors.

Lucky Bianca Atino, a 22-year-old ICT student became the first to bring the crown to the Lango Sub-region. Atino first won the preliminary title of Miss Northern Uganda, during a beauty contest at Lira Hotel on June 29, 2024.

A member belonging to the Okii Amat clan from Lira District, Atino not only claimed the national title but also drove away with a brand-new Toyota Corolla Fielder Hybrid, a reward for her outstanding performance. Besides, she will be the face of Techno as ambassador of the smartphone brand for at least a year.

Additionally, Atino will later this year represent Uganda at the prestigious Miss Tourism International Pageant in Malaysia, after which she will embark on her duties as a domestic tourism ambassador, promoting Uganda’s rich cultural heritage and natural beauty.
