Newsone Nigeria reports that a Nigerian, Chidimma Adetshina, who was forced to withdraw from Miss South Africa 2024, has emerged as the winner of the Miss Universe Nigeria 2024 pageant.
This online news platform recalls that the 23-year-old Chidimma Adetshina, a law student, came to Nigeria after accepting to participate in the Miss Universe Nigeria 2024 pageant.
The development followed her controversial withdrawal from Miss South Africa 2024 due to xenophobic backlash over her nationality.
Guy Murray-Bruce, the President of Silverbird Group and the competition organizers, announced Adetshina as the winner at the grand finale held at Eko Hotels & Suites, Lagos, on Saturday night.
The winner of the Miss Universe Nigeria 2024 pageant represented Taraba State in the keenly contested competition, which had a total of 25 participants.
