Nigeria’s Music Maestro Burna Boy has mocked South Africans after a white South African won the Miss SA pageantry following the withdrawal of Chidinma Vanessa Adetshina of Nigerian descent who was forced to pull out of the event over her Nationality
The Nigerian superstar in his reaction to a white South African woman, Mia Le Roux winning the Miss South Africa pageantry following a controversy that led to the withdrawal of Chidinma Vanessa Adetshina, wrote “So after all that”, adding laughter emojis.
Mia Le Roux, the new Miss South Africa was crowned at a ceremony held at the Sun Bet Arena at Time Square in Menlyn, Pretoria.
She is the first Miss SA Winner who is deaf & has a cochlear implant and will be the first contestant at the Miss Universe 2024 in Mexico with such a disability to take part in the competition.
Some South Africans had questioned whether Chidnma Adetshina, a 23-year-old law student who said her father is Nigerian while her mum is a South African of Mozambican descent was really a citizen of the country and took to social media to ask for her to be removed from the pageant.
This led to SA Home Affairs initiating an investigation into Chidinma’s roots and discovered that the identity of an “innocent” South African mother “may have been stolen” by Adetshina’s mother.
