It is a blessing in disguise for Miss South Africa 2024 finalist Chidimma Adetshina, as Miss Universe Nigeria has extended an invitation to participate in the 2024 MUN Pageant.

The invite comes hours after Adetshina withdrew herself from the beauty pageant following the uproar her participation caused among South Africans.

Recall that Chidimma was criticised by South African netizens who did not want her to be part of the pageant as someone of Nigerian origin.

Miss Universe Nigeria, in a statement released on Friday, August 9, encouraged Adetshina to return to the country to represent her father's land.
