Chidimma Adetshina, Nigeria’s representative at the 73rd Miss Universe competition, has expressed deep gratitude to Nigerians and Africans for their , which contributed to her historic achievement at Miss Universe 2024.

During the final moments of the prestigious event at Arena CDMX in Mexico City on Sunday morning, a thrilling showdown unfolded between Adetshina and Miss Denmark, Victoria Kjaer Theilvig, as the two women vied for the coveted crown.

In the end, Miss Denmark, Theilvig, claimed the title, succeeding Miss Universe 2023, Sheynnis Palacios of Nicaragua.

Following the competition, Adetshina took to Instagram to share her appreciation.

The beauty queen recalled how Nigerians ed her during her lowest, and how Africa as a continent taught her the power of unity in the pursuit of success.

She wrote, “To Nigeria: THANK YOU is not enough for all the you’ve shown. You picked me up when I was at my lowest. I’ve never opened up much but I was ready to give up on my life but you became my strength. On days I never wanted to fight you gave me the strength to fight. I’m so grateful for each and everyone for walking this journey with me.

She also addressed the African continent, saying, “To Africa: thank you for showing your love and . As much as I represent Nigeria, Africa fought for me. My voice, my story touched many and brought us together. This journey has taught me the power of Unity. I want us to live in a society where we can all accept and celebrate one another.”

Chidimma Adetshina concluded by emphasising that this moment marks the beginning of her journey, not its end.

Special thanks to Ben Murray Bruce of Silverbird and all his efforts to take this Lady to a greater height, Mr Ben is the main Engineer here, greetings to him

South Africa's loss...

See what they lost and threw away because of tribalism Abi xenophobia.

There is a moral in this story!

When UK finally reject that lady..hope she will be able to say same..cos she don too fyck up

Thank God South Africa rejected her..

The pride we for see but not felt... English

Hope you understand

Good girl! 🫡🇳🇬🫡

.. you're already on a right track. Big big endorsements on the way 💯.
It is quite unfortunate that people from your place of birth are the same people seeking for your downfall. Let them continue to cry and wail in pain. You and Nigerians have already taken this glory. ✌️🇳🇬✌️

Large percentage of Enugu women are wife materials. They're So down to earth.
Beauty with brain

Rejection can sometimes become a stepping stone or even motivation to break limitations with your hidden strength and sometimes talent. Rejection makes you strong if you know how to handle it.

South Africans felt they will break her and sink and drown her in their hate waters, alas! they didn't know she was garri. Pour garri in water and it swell and rises.

She is the Second in the world and First in Africa.

A win to Nigeria and all Africans except South Africa.

It is true to the fact that your enemy cannot determine your heights if you refused to submit to his/her wishes.

No gree for anybody. Las Las everything will be alright.

Congratulations young lady. You made us proud, at the same time gave us a broken record at this particular pageantry.

Rubbish.

Burning my data mb.

How far with Nigerians that opposed her?

While it's tough to understand Sputh Africans that wanted her humiliated, it's ridiculous to understand fellow Nigerians that ed South Africans against her. You want her humiliated for the mum possibly being an illegal migrants before she was born yet millions of your relatives are in Europe as illegal immigrants.

Yet she soared above them all.

Normal normal e no suppose better for South Africa people.

You're welcome

God pls raise a Nairalander to help me at my lowest when I'm starving without hope of survival 🙏🙏

I m proud of this feat. The she got was so massive.
However, did get family really flout any immigration law in SA?
I no like irregularities.

Congrats to her. She rocked it. I tired for her but at that time when it was left with her and Miss Denmark, I felt it would likely go to Miss Denmark since both countries are yet to win Miss Universe.
Guess it was my way of preparing for the worse before it was announced.

Space booked to nuke any rude South African kitty.
Samantha125 watch ya back!
