Nigerians React as South African Handle ‘All of Us Be One’ Claims Miss Universe Nigeria in Pidgin Tweets

Controversy Rises: ‘All of Us Be One’ South African Tweets About Miss Universe Nigeria in Pidgin

The recent online tension between Nigerians and South Africans over Chidinma Adetshina’s achievements in beauty pageantry has sparked further discussion.

Chidinma, who initially participated in the Miss South Africa pageant before withdrawing due to controversial xenophobic comments, later emerged as Miss Universe Nigeria.

This victory has led to mixed reactions, particularly from South African social media users.

A number of South Africans, including some on Twitter, have expressed their frustration, with some claiming she doesn’t deserve the title. In contrast, Chidinma has received significant support, particularly from Nigerians who view her as a symbol of overcoming adversity.

Amid this, a tweet from a South African social media user stating “All of us be one” in Nigerian Pidgin, in response to the backlash, seemed to attempt to reconcile these sentiments.

However, this only fueled more debate among both nations, especially as Chidinma had previously faced scrutiny over her dual heritage.
