Chidimma Adetshina is the highest placed ****** ******** woman in Miss Universe since South *******’s Zozibini Tunzi won in 2019

Miss Nigeria, Chidimma Adetshina, has spoken of her pride at coming second in the Miss Universe competition, as well as being named Miss ******* and Oceania.

“I’m so proud of myself and I just made history,” she said, shortly after losing out to Miss Denmark, Victoria Kjær Theilvig.

Adetshina originally competed in the Miss South ******* contest, as she was born and grew up in the country, however she was subjected to trolling and xenophobic ****** because her father is *********.

Last month, the South ******** authorities said they would strip her of her identity papers, following allegations that her mother, who has Mozambican roots, had committed identity ****** to gain South ******** nationality.

Neither Adetshina nor her mother have commented on the allegations. South ******** authorities pointed out that Adetshina could not have participated in any alleged ****** as she was an infant at the time.

After the furore in South *******, and the doubts about her nationality, she competed in the Miss Nigeria competition, which she won to qualify for the Miss Universe contest held in Mexico City.

The eventual winner of Miss South *******, Mia le Roux, pulled out of Miss Universe last week citing an undisclosed medical condition. She was the first deaf woman to become Miss South *******.

to congratulate her on her second place, along with both South ******** and ********* flags, some South Africans responded by saying she did not represent them.

In her BBC interview, Adetshina said she would be seeking therapy to help her deal with the trauma following the ****** she was subjected to.
