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 believe we should come together and trade our resources and skills. By doing this we could train people to be self efficient, confident and able to gain employment and those who are already employed could advance their skills improving economy of the country. Infrastructures are also needed to aid growth; these nations could form some kind of partnerships to do this especially with electricity and roads.

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

The African Spirit, to me, is celebrating the joy, music, and laughter as well as embracing struggles and forging ahead. Many people might look at us and think of poverty and under-development but I think we are a very happy people in spite of what we go through. I live it by just being happy and I share it by smiling and this I believe, could make someone’s day.

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

I am beautiful. Apart from moisturizing, hydration and staying active, I would say loving yourself and being satisfied.

Deborah Endonyan.
