UGPulse.com asked the contestants 3 questions...

With the state of the global economy today, what opportunities are out there for African nations and how do you think they should grab and take advantage of those opportunities?

I think that African nations have the opportunity to use their own natural resources such as water bodies to produce hydro-electric energy for themselves. This means they can produce larger amounts of energy that may even be exported and it will mean a growth in their economies and improving relations with other African nations and European and American countries. Good relations will attract investors to put money in their Economies and open doors for a brighter future for the African Spirit to be spread worldwide.

What is the African Spirit... How do you live it?... How do you share it?

African Spirit is remembering those less fortunate. It is also pride in being part of the African family, not forgetting where you come from and embracing it in every way possible. I live it by practising and applying Zimbabwean morals and culture to everyday life. I embrace my African Heritage and share it in a positive way with those people who may have the wrong perception about it.

Are you beautiful? Can you share your beauty secret to your fellow African sisters?

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. From the smiles I put on peoples faces I can safely say I am indeed beautiful. To my African sisters, all I can say is be yourself and your true inner and outer beauty will shine! Be confident, and if you believe in yourself everyone else will too.
