About this listen
Africans are appalled by South Africa's treatment of Chidimma Adetshina, Miss Universe Africa and Oceania, and her family. It argues that the legal investigation into her family's residency status contradicts South Africa's history of pan-African solidarity during the apartheid struggle and exposes lingering colonial biases. The piece highlights the hypocrisy of South Africa rejecting a fellow African while celebrating a representative with European ancestry. The author calls for an end to the investigation, a formal apology, and a broader commitment to pan-African unity, urging South Africa to honour Nelson Mandela's legacy of inclusivity. The article concludes by emphasising the importance of African unity and the need for South Africa to act decisively.
