According to Daily Post, Chichi spoke about the misfortunes of her identity crisis and how she managed to navigate the negativity:

Mzansi reacts to footage from Miss Universe Nigeria

South Africans have been closely following Miss Universe Nigeria since Chidimma's entry and were in stitches after seeing some behind-the-scenes footage.

The pageant takes its contestants through a camp ahead of the competition, and a photo from one of the press briefings convinced Mzansi that the contest was nothing more than a low-budget show.

This after South Africans were criticised by Nigerians for mistreating Chichi, where some people from Naija claimed that their country was more superior, and Mzansi did not forget to remind them.
