The young mother of one faced a storm of backlash after her participation in Miss SA sparked outrage among xenophobic netizens. Some South Africans, fueled by Afrophobic sentiments, were quick to point out her Mozambican and Nigerian heritage, claiming she didn’t “truly” represent South Africa. The online vitriol reached fever pitch, leading to her withdrawal from the competition—a decision she announced on Instagram, citing concerns for her family’s safety. But this is no sob story! In a dramatic twist, Adetshina has been invited to participate in Miss Universe Nigeria, her father’s homeland, no less! And guess what? She’s accepted the offer with open arms and a beaming smile!
