Chidimma Adetshina, the reigning Miss Universe Nigeria, has opened up about her decision to delete her Twitter account following backlash over her nationality and Miss Universe Nigeria win. This move comes after she withdrew from the Miss South Africa pageant due to allegations of fraud and identity theft involving her mother.
In an interview on *Arise 360*, the Nigerian-South African beauty queen revealed that the negativity on Twitter became overwhelming and began to affect her mental health. She shared that deleting the app brought her much-needed relief.
“I had to delete it because it was too much for me. I’m a comment reader, so I spent a lot of time reading everything, and it became toxic,” Chidimma explained. She also mentioned limiting her Instagram comment section for similar reasons.
While she appreciated the support from her fans, she acknowledged the risks her supporters faced, saying, “When people support me, they get dragged, and I don’t want anyone to go through that just for standing by me.”
