Adetshina, who has Nigerian and Mozambican roots, found herself at the heart of a fiery nationality debate after making it to the Top 16 in the Miss South Africa pageant. The drama intensified when the South African Department of Home Affairs raised allegations that Adetshina’s mother might have been involved in fraud and identity theft. Despite being a strong contender in the Top 11, the relentless scrutiny and accusations forced Adetshina to withdraw from the pageant.
