She said:

"I believe this debate was intended for fun, so let’s not get too serious about it! take pride in being 100% Zimbabwean, born and raised. More than anything, this should encourage us to come together as Africans and support one another, as our names signify our unity."

Even though Sakhile Dube shut down the claims that she might be tied to SA, many netizens still believed she had some SA roots. @joy_zelda begged to differ as she confirmed that she wasn't from here.

She wrote:

"Miss Zimbabwe and Miss Nigeria are not South Africans; Sakhile Dube and Chidimma Adetshina don't Represent us. They don't know our culture or know how to speak our languages. Their parents were not born in South Africa. They are both foreigners whom we should not support as Miss Universe."
