Nigerian-South African beauty queen Chidimma Adetshina has opened up about her personal struggles.
According to the beauty queen, she has faced difficulties while pursuing her dream in pageantry.
She spoke in a recent interview on the Big Friday Show hosted by Big Brother Naija star Tacha.
She also suffered as a result of her being a dual citizen.
“I think it’s something I started recently; however, I’ve had this dream since 2017 to become the next Miss Universe. I’m really glad I have been given the platform and the opportunity to at least try and reach that goal,” she said.
On how she manages her identity crises, the beauty queen said it takes a personal toll on her sometimes.
“I think for me, it has been a long journey. It has been so hard, I won’t lie, there were times when I would cry myself to sleep and be like, ‘Why me? I want it to end.’ There are times when I think that we have to look at the positive side when difficulties like this happen. I also had to change my mindset and see that maybe more of this greatness is coming as well.” she responded.
