Many people jumped to conclusions, thinking Chidimma was ready to retire immediately. The beauty queen clarified the misunderstanding with a statement, stressing that she’ll pass on the reins only after her tenure as Miss Universe Africa ends.

"Just to give clarity: When I said, ‘it’s the end of the road for pageantry,’ I meant that I’ve done so well and left on a high note, and I don’t think I need to do any other pageants after this. However, this decision will come into play after my reign as Miss Universe Africa and Oceania."

Rising above the storm

The Nigerian contestant has endured many challenges since joining the Miss SA pageant in 2024. This includes an investigation into citizenship fraud, which led to her family's ban from South Africa.

After the drama, the beauty queen made impressive moves in her career, such as winning the title of Miss Universe Nigeria 2024 and finishing as the first runner-up at the 2024 Miss Universe pageant in Mexico.
