Chidimma Adetshina, a 23-year-old law student born in Soweto, near Johannesburg, to a South African mother of Mozambican origin and a Nigerian father, who was forced to abandon her race for the Miss South Africa title in early August after being subjected to a particularly violent xenophobic campaign in her country of birth, poses during the Miss Nigeria boot camp in Lagos on August 24, 2024. Initially not very popular in Nigeria due to the traditionalism of a large part of society, these competitions gained popularity after the coronation in 2001 of the Nigerian Agbani Darego as Miss World.
