Adetshina on mission to unite people, promote diversity

Speaking on her arrival in Nigeria, she said: "I'm excited, I'm in my father's land and I want to experience more about it. It's been 20 years since I've been here. I just want to get to know more about the culture and where I come from."

"My goal is obviously to win the crown of Miss Universe Nigeria and I do have an impact that I want to share with everybody. As a woman who has obviously faced adversity, I want to use my story to bring people together." The 22-year-old model was invited to participate at Miss Universe Nigeria after her South African citizenship was questioned.

"I want us to value diversity and celebrate our differences. In that way, we can build a stronger community that benefits everybody.
