Nigerians are calling for Chidimma Adetshina to return to Nigeria and help build the country, saying they would welcome her back with open arms. pic.twitter.com/KDdnSqyUOg

"This girl Chidimma is dragging South Africans to court because they are asking her to go home, and I don't even know the reason why she does not want to come back to Nigeria because the embarrassment is too much.

Why are we rejecting our identity? I'm a proud Nigerian, of course. Nigeria might be bad today, or maybe Nigeria might not be fixed today, but Nigeria can be fixed tomorrow. Every country has their up and down. Why don't you want to choose your identity as a Nigerian? Come on, you can choose your identity as a Nigerian and go to any other part of the world to live.

Why dragging them to court? I didn't see any reason why doing it. They say you are identity thief. You should go home at least this time around. Thank God they didn't say you're doing white, white.

Come back. We will receive you. We love you. Even what happened when you were contesting for beauty pageant in South Africa, the Nigerians they took you in and allow you to contest in Nigeria. So what's stopping you from coming back?

I know it's not easy, even from where I stay right now. From here, moving down our location, it's not easy for me. Please, my sister, come back home. You don't really need to be going through that. Nigeria will be great again, and people will beg to be Nigerian citizen. I'm telling you, if not Nigeria, Biafra will come."

Let her face the problems of south Africa. The shame of staying poor among her family in Nigeria is high.

A whole goddamn president with important duties to fulfill lives in France and you think some beauty pageant title holder who is used to the bright lights of Jo'burg and Cape Town is trying to see herself anywhere near Nigeria? LoL

I don't think Chidimma was impressed by Nigeria during her brief stay there even though they rolled out the red carpet for her and rigged Ms Universe Nigeria in her favour.

After Miss Universe she was paraded by Ministers and lived the high life with Nigerian politicians' eyes on knacking her, spraying her with money.

Still she was like 'nope, i'm outta here and never returning'.

For those of us who'll never get to visit Nigeria we can just conclude it's one hell of a place.

No doubt,the way her stay over there was just too short tells all that you need to know.I wonder how those girls who grinded their last gear to become Miss Nigeria felt when it was handed to Chidinma who did not even break a sweat for it.

It really must be hell. Definitely not a place an average person who wasn't born there would enjoy,hell..even the people who were born there don't even want it lol.

Indeed, seeking justice for Chidimma but not the ladies who were cheated of Miss Universe Nigeria after Chidimma was parachuted in at the last minute and won, when other contestants had been going through the proper processes for weeks preceding that.

They were done dirty lol.Can you imagine all the time,hard work and money those individuals invested only for an attention-seeking opportunist to fly into the country to scoop up a title she was not even a contestant for? Chai but then again they did all that just to spite SA so I don't think they gave it much thought.

Seppuku and Morpheus24 said it was not to spite SA. Although they gave her all the airtime to narrate her sob story but never asked or followed up on the identity fraud story.

There's still some South African child who's struggling through life because they're stateless and Chidimma's parents stole his/her identity.

And worst of all no Nigerian here addresses that.

Sep.puku is the type of a guy to argue the most blatantly obvious observations just for the sake of being of the opposite side of facts.We all know how emotional Nigerians get when it comes to anything concerning SA.They invited that girl to spite SA,she entered that competition to spite South African people.She knew her whole identity is bogus but she participated anyway.

And I am willing to bet Chidimma was not even born here,it just doesn't add up.

We gave an innocent young African girl the opportunity to compete on a world stage, inspite of the hate she was receiving from the only country she has ever known. All we needed to confirm was that she had ties to Nigeria and indeed she did.

South Africa talking points and propaganda.

At the beginning of this saga Home affairs stated that the so called "child" struggling through did indeed obtain a new ID which is why you haven't seen anyone surface saying otherwise. Chidinma did not steal someones "identity", Home affairs replaced the original's owners ID with her name. Your ID'shave a date of birth in them and additional numbers. A new one can always be created in the system.

You don't even know how your own home affairs works?

morpheus24:

Okay that's great news.

but why would you be spited at a young lady who claimed her Nigerian passport to go represent that country in a beauty pageant if deep down inside you were not hateful of a child who found herself in a situation of no fault of her own and simply wanted to represent the country she believed was the country of her birth.

We know how much you guys hate to see other Africans succeed above you in your own country.

JaceBlaze:

Well she continues to claim such and neither the courts nor has Home affairs come back to dispute this so hold on to your money Mfethu, you don't have all the "facts". Onyinbo lawyers from cape town don't just take up a pro bono cases willy nilly without having some concrete facts on ground.

?

Please provide proof. Reason we don't know who's identity was stolen is because the law prohibits it. Had we known the name SA keyboard warriors would have solved this crime forever ago.

Here you go.

Tomorrow the xenophobes will say Morpheus argues just for arguement sake.

https://www.thesouthafrican.com/lifestyle/new-details-alleged-chidimma-adetshina-identity-theft/

The mother whose identity appears to have been stolen, applied for an ID document in 1995 in Tshwane. The first red flag came when she went to collect it. She was told by officials that it was ready for collection in Johannesburg. Six-years later, when the same woman give birth to a child, she was informed that a child had already been registered under her name/ID number. That child was Adetshina. For months she tried to rectify the situation. The department eventually issued her a new ID number, allowing her to finally register her child’s birth certificate.

So this means Chidimma's parents are no longer criminals for stealing someone's identity?

Didn't she have a Nigerian flag in her bio? Or I imagined it?

No records of her birth in any South African hospital.That is very odd, especially in SA where we do our due diligence when it comes to such.

This oyinbo lawyer also was there when her mother gave birth? Hmmmn

She’s lived in SA all her life. That’s the problem. It’s the only place she knows as home. It’s not about Nigeria being hell to live in or not. As a global beauty queen she can choose to live anywhere else other than SA, like London, etc. But I understand why she’s fighting.

Even if she did, why would that take away from her ability to compete in a Miss South Africa beauty paegent. One of your female footballers is of strong greek heritage and doesn't shy away from acknowleding this. Why haven't you guys kicked her out of the bafana bafana team but when it comes to another African somehow it is impossible for them to have dual identities.

I know you guys just got your independence in 1994 and are trying to figure out what it is to be South African but this is 2026 my friend. You people need to catch up with the times neh!

Heresay my dear law student. Your courts would not even entertain her case if there was definitive evidence that she was not born here or Home affairs would have used the absence of a birth certificate as strong evidence in the court proceedings.

We all do not have all the facts so lets just keep our hate and speculating here on nairaland, neh.

FYI, it was also alleged that her Mozambican grandfather was indeed married to a Zulu lady which could be the mother of Zunga, Chidinma's mother actually making her a SOuth African citizen as well.

Ask and I will post the evidence here.

RandDigital:

Stop it RandDigital and accept the propaganda you and your compatriots like slinging around.

The crime of her mother is not her crime though she was the beneficiary of it.

Why you guys are mad at Chidinma is that despite your attempts at transfering your anger unto an innocent child because the incompetencies and corruption of your government parastatals, she was still able to complete the event you barred her from and still has the opportunity to fight in court.

Its your constitution, not ours.

Chidimma, Igbo King rejected and caused riots in SA.

The current Miss SA is not even South African but she won and people never gave her a hard time.We had a black man from Zimbabwe playing in the national Rugby team and South Africans still show him love to this day.There is also a Nigerian player in Bafana Bafana squad.Akin Omotoso,a Nigerian tv producer and actor has appeared in multiple SA TV shows - no problem.I know I am talking to a person who has already concluded that South Africans are evil/demonic people but if your are trying to say we never accepted other Africans and allowed them to shine in their various talents then I already debunked your narrative. Chidinma is a fraud and she knows it.

There's also no definitive evidence that she was born here.Why did her parents go to the length of committing an identity theft?

The poor boy is so traumatized that everytime his Nigerian heritage is mentioned he quickly shruggs it off.

JaceBlaze:
Akin Omotoso,a Nigerian tv producer and actor has appeared in multiple SA TV shows - no problem.

Omotoso's appearance was in the early 2000's a good generation ago when there were just a fewer number of AFricans coming into South Africa and were tolerated because Mbeki was in power and the economy was doing good. Your new patriotic generation have made sure they were all fazed out from your soaps.

The mother did not have South African particulars and you need the particulars of a South African parent in other to be registered as a South African and not the fact that you were born in South Africa.

There's a difference between Nigerian tourists and criminals. We welcome tourists, students, academics, etc but don't overstay your welcome and become an illegal.

Then there's the majority of Nigerians we meet in the CBD who are uncultured and criminally minded.

You know this very well, I wonder why you're pretending. But you all do, like with what Chidimma's parents did. Hinding your heads in the sand.
