South Africans Drag Singer Tyla For Condemning Bullying Of Nigerian Model Chidimma Adetshina

South Africans are mercilessly dragging Grammy singer Tyla for supporting Nigerian model Chidimma Adetshina.

Refreshing your memory, Miss Adetshina, a 23-year-old Law student, won the Miss South African beauty pageant.

However, her win was controversial as South Africans questioned her citizenship and took to social media to call for her removal. Adetshina is born to a South African mother and a Nigerian father.

An investigation into Chidimma’s roots by South African Home Affairs discovered that the identity of an innocent South African mother may have been stolen by Adetshina’s mother. This prompted her to withdraw from the competition.

Surprisingly, Tyla took to her Twitter page to defend and condemn South Africans for bullying her. She stated that though she will always stand with South Africa, she advocates against bullying her.

“Disappointed that this happened to her, but wish you all the best, girl. Kill it.

I will always stand with South Africans, I just feel regardless of the opinions. She was bullied, and that’s what I don’t stand for”.
