The first runner-up at the recent Miss Universe pageant, Chidimma Adetshina has disclosed her next plans to prioritise her personal growth and career development more.
In an interview with BBC Pidgin, the Miss Universe Africa and Oceania stated that she intends to take a hiatus from pageantry in order to focus on her education and her developing acting and modeling careers. "What's next is not definitely pageantry, I am putting pageantry to bed right now but I am going to focus more on my education and obviously establishing who Chidimma is. "I want to delve more into runways, more into acting and so many things that I would like to do and touch on actually really see where my potential can go to," she noted.
Chidimma further said it "was an incredible moment" for her when she was announced as part of the top two in the contest.
She further revealed that her initial objective was to be included in the top 30 for the Miss Universe beauty pageant and did not imagine herself even being named in the top five of the pageantry.
