According to the organisers, activities to mark this special edition would be communicated to the general public in the coming days, but as has been the convention for potential participants and contestants, one has to be in the age range of 18 and 25, beautiful, charismatic,  eloquent and intelligent to qualify.

For this reason, people will have to tag their preferred 20th Malaika Queen on with the hashtag #malaikaat20 on all social media platforms.

The processes triggered would pave way for the reigning Queen, Ama Tutuwaa to crown her successor in the coming months.
