“Her dad is not Yoruba” – Confusion and divided opinions regarding ex-miss SA Adetshina’s tribe as she joins Miss Universe Nigeria.

Former Miss SA Chidimma Adetshina’s intention to compete in the Nigerian beauty competition Miss Universe Nigeria has elicited varied emotions from Nigerians.

Miss Universe Nigeria encouraged Chidimma to compete in the country’s pageant after she withdrew from Miss South Africa due to bullying.

In a video, a Nigerian actress expressed her delight for the show’s new season, generating disputes about her Yoruba heritage and name.

@edwinjnr332: “@Dmatterarising @Toxyberry1 @OneJoblessBoy Her dad is not Yoruba.. Adetshina is not a Yoruba name.. you ppl are something else.. this babe is answering two Igbo names and u want to confuse me.”

@AdeJesuRe: “@se_fola @lawnreigh1 Some say she was married to an Itshekiri (Yoruba); others say “Adetshina” is her mothers name from Mozambique. Makes sense that a 23-year-old divorced an Itshekiri, & kept the Yoruba name, or that her Igbo father allowed her to use her mother’s Mozambique surname. Too many lies.”

@Temitayodara: “please tell chindinma to drop the Adetshina, she needs to show proof she’s Has anything yoruba.”

@ObaTrench: “@StHonorable @MissPearls She is Adeshina. She is Igbo & Yoruba.”
