“I have been in those shoes. I am incredibly proud of Adetshina’s journey.

“The resilience she displayed after facing setbacks in South Africa is truly inspiring. It is a true display of self confidence and self esteem.

“She did not let her experience break her spirit, instead, she pushed forward with more determination.

“Her inner strength will take her far, not only in pageantry, but in every aspect of life,” Obiadi said.

She added that Adetshina was a role model and ambassador for Nigerian culture and values.

She urged young girls to emulate Adetshina’s spirit of fearlessness and assertiveness.

“I congratulate our resilient queen from the bottom of my heart and I wish her the best in the upcoming Miss Universe pageant,” she said.
