A South African group, Progressive Forces, has launched a petition against Chidimma Adetshina from competing in the Miss Universe 2024.
This comes after the arrival of Adetshina in Mexico on Wednesday.
DAILY POST reports that the newly crowned Miss Universe Nigeria arrived in Mexico to represent the country at the 2024 edition of the global competition scheduled to be held in November.
Chidimma Adetshina had faced criticism in South Africa during the announcement of her Miss South Africa contest.
In response to the controversy, the South Africa Department of Home Affairs, DHA, said preliminary evidence suggests Chidimmas mother committed fraud and identity theft.
