The organisers of the Miss Universe Nigeria pageant on Friday announced Chidinma’s participation in the competition.
They also revealed that she will compete as Miss Taraba with contestant number 25.

Earlier, Chidimma participated in Miss South Africa which sparked controversy due to questions about her nationality. This led to a surge of criticism on social media, particularly from South Africans.
The controversy prompted an investigation by the South African Ministry of Home Affairs.
Following the investigation, Chidimma decided to withdraw from Miss South Africa.
