Chidimma Adetshina Deletes X Account Over Mental Health
Chidimma Adetshina, the newly crowned Miss Universe Nigeria, recently opened up about her decision to deactivate her X (formerly Twitter) account, citing concerns for her mental well-being.
The beauty queen shared that constant criticism and negativity had taken a toll on her emotional health, leading her to step away from the platform.
Adetshina, 23, faced harsh backlash during her time in South Africa, particularly when she competed for the Miss South Africa title.
This criticism was further intensified when the South African Department of Home Affairs (DHA) made claims suggesting that her mother had been involved in fraud and identity theft.
While these allegations added pressure, it was the relentless online comments that pushed her to make a change.
Speaking candidly in an interview with Arise 360, Chidimma explained how deeply the negative feedback affected her.
“I had to delete it because I felt like it was too much for me. I’m a comment reader, so I would go through every comment, and that’s where the problem started,” she revealed.
She admitted that spending a significant portion of her day reading both positive and negative comments became overwhelming.
“I could spend 80% of my day reading comments, and at some point, it became toxic for me.”
Although she no longer uses X, Adetshina continues to engage with her supporters on other social media platforms like Instagram, where she took further steps to protect her mental space by limiting comments.
Reflecting on the experience, she acknowledged how taking control of her online presence helped her find some relief from the constant scrutiny.
Despite the challenges, Chidimma remains grateful for the outpouring of support from her fans.
She expressed her heartfelt thanks to those who have stood by her through the ups and downs, and emphasized the importance of protecting her peace of mind in the face of criticism.
Nigerian pastor Dolapo Lawal spoke on the reality of living abroad and what people do not see online.
He shared the insight that many Nigerians who relocate to other countries mainly move there for survival and not necessarily for wealth.
“How many people you know that are in the UK who are billionaires? They go there to survive. They don’t go there to be rich. All of them are going there to do care jobs. They’re going there to survive.”
He then shared that it is better to be a billionaire in Nigeria and stated that success can sometimes come easier at home than relocating abroad.
Sandra has spoken out and broken her silence on the alleged affair involving Chike. She shared that she was faithful throughout her marriage and claimed that only Frank Edoho cheated.
Sandra revealed that Frank allegedly cheated multiple times and even claimed that a particular woman was frequently seen around their home, stating that he was definitely involved with her.
She also stated that she has evidence against Frank, including receipts from hotels and places where he allegedly met with his dates.
Popular singer Shakira and Nigerian singer Burna Boy have reportedly released “Daidia,” a song linked to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It was also noted that the two artists are expected to perform during the event, and the song for the occasion has now been released.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is scheduled to take place from June 11, 2026, to July 19, 2026, across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Many fans are already excited and cannot wait to see the live performance on the big stage.
