“South Africans will be in a pool of tears” – Netizens react as Chidimma Adetshina wins Miss Universe Nigeria 2024

Chidimma Adetshina wins Miss Universe Nigeria

There is widespread jubilation for fans and lovers of Nigerian model Chidimma Adetshina as she emerges as Miss Universe Nigeria 2024.

The black beauty queen who represented Taraba State at the just concluded beauty pageant beat 25 others to emerge the winner of the night. The model was crowned the new Miss Universe Nigeria at the grand finale, held at Eko Hotels & Suites, Lagos, on Saturday night, August 31st. Following her win, Chidimma will represent Nigerians at the Miss Universe pageantry in Mexico.

Speaking on her win, Chidimma said that her victory isn’t only for her but for all, and it’s a true call for unity.

“This crown is not just for beauty; it’s a call for unity”.

Chidimma’s journey to winning the title was nothing short of strength, resilience and grace as she was forced to withdraw from the Miss Universe South Africa pageantry in July. South Africans had questioned her citizenship and took to social media to call for her removal. Adetshina is born to a South African mother and a Nigerian father.

Following her withdrawal, a Caucasian woman, Mia Le Roux, won the pageantry, and she became the first Miss SA winner who is deaf and has a cochlear implant.

Guy Murray-Bruce, the National Director of Miss Universe Nigeria, had invited her to compete in the just concluded MUN 2024.

To worsen things, South Africans had a ploy to overthrow Chidimma, as they massively voted for a plus-sized model representing Kwara State, Ufa Dania, to spite Chidimma. The support from South Africans made Miss Dania, the top-leading lady at the pageantry, with 23901 votes, and Chidimma came second with 23422 votes. But trust Nigerians to always come true for their own as they massively voted for Chidimma, which made her the winner of the night.
