Chidinma Adetshina, a former finalist in the Miss South Africa competition, has garnered significant support from South Africans after transitioning to the Miss Universe Nigeria contest. Adetshina, who was born in South Africa but represents Miss Taraba in the Nigerian pageant, withdrew from the Miss SA 2024 competition following complications related to her father’s Nigerian nationality.
The pageant organizers extended an invitation to Adetshina for the Miss Universe Nigeria contest, which she accepted. Her participation in the competition has been met with a positive response from South Africans, who initially expressed disappointment when her Miss SA bid was canceled.
South Africans are now rallying behind Adetshina, voting for her to advance to the next phase of the Miss Universe Nigeria competition. This wave of support reflects a renewed enthusiasm for the South African-born model as she competes under the Miss Taraba banner.
Adetshina’s move has not only bridged her connection to Nigeria but has also rekindled admiration from her South African supporters, who are hopeful for her success in the pageant. The campaign to vote for Adetshina highlights the strong support she continues to receive from her home country, as she aims to secure the crown in the Miss Universe Nigeria competition.
