In a surprising twist, South African netizens have flipped the script on their voting strategies for the Miss Universe Nigeria pageant as they are now backing Miss Kwara for the win.
Initially, Mzansi netizens were rooting for former Miss SA finalist Chidimma Adetshina , who has been eating up the other participants by taking lead on the scoreboard with over 10,000 votes, but now they are throwing their support behind Miss Kwara representative, Ufa Dania, a plus-size beauty who is redefining beauty norms at the pageant.
This shift in loyalty is driven by a desire for inclusivity and representation. The new favourite, who proudly rocks her curves, has captured the hearts of South Africans with her confidence and individuality, as well as her ability to embrace her unique qualities while daring to be different.
I believe Im the very first curvy person to ever make it to this level so already that sets my perspective on a positive note, she said.
X user @nelly_weiderman highlights that history was made with South Africas first deaf Miss SA and notes that by voting for Miss Kwara in the Miss Universe Nigeria pageant, South Africans would help make history for Nigeria too with its first plus-size winner.
