As Miss Universe Nigeria 2024, Chidimma Adetshina prepares for the 73rd Miss Universe set to take place on November 16 in Mexico City, Nigerians have been rooting for her to come home with the crown. It’s not only Nigeria cheering her on though —South Africans and supporters from other African nations are rallying behind her too.
This marks an important moment, following the pushbacks Chidimma received while contesting for Miss South Africa and her subsequent withdrawal from the competition.
For Chidimma’s supporters, isn’t just about a pageant win; it’s a stand against the negativity she faced and from a broader perspective, a celebration of African unity.
See how South Africans are showing support for Chidimma Adetshina as she prepares for the 73rd Miss Universe.
I just voted for Chidimma for the first time. This is not about just a vote, it’s about justice for her. If Chidimma loss this, it will promote hatred & undermine diversity. Afrophobia should not win. I too I was born of Swedish father and a South African mother

We support an African queen Chidimma and we condemn any form of an attack on her . No self loving black person should sign a useless petition against a black woman.

I love how Chidimma is getting support from every corner in Africa. She’s not just a Nigerian face, she’s an African face, an African movement. An African Queen, and queens can’t be silenced. I hope to see the crown of Miss Universe 2024 on her head come 16th November
