South African politician and social activist Anele Mda has openly called for the removal of Chidimma Adetshina.
Mda took to her Facebook account to express her views in multiple posts. The activist said a notice of birth does not translate to citizenship.
Her statement comes after Miss SA finalist Chidimma's participation in the pageant has sparked an uproar on social media. South Africans have argued that she is not eligible to contest because of her Nigerian heritage.
"It's practically impossible that we can be silenced on our resolve for the removal of this foreigner Chidima Adechina as a contender for #MissSA2024 ... No foreigner will be parachuted above South Africans who deserve all platforms and opportunities this country has to advance women issues #MissSA2024 is for SA women ONLY 🇿🇦. Our Miss SA will never be a Nigerian, not in our lifetime."
