The Chairman of the Silverbird Group, Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, has said Nigeria will host the 2025 Miss Universe beauty pageant if the newly-crowned Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidimma Adetshina, wins this year’s edition.
In a statement issued via his X handle on Tuesday, Bruce vowed that his company, Silverbird Group will do everything within their powers to make sure Nigeria gets the opportunity to host the global beauty pageant next year.
He promised that the challenges faced during their attempt to host Miss World in Nigeria in 2002 would never repeat themselves.
He declared that it was time for Nigeria to reclaim its rightful place on the global stage.
Bruce wrote: “If Chidimma Adetshina clinches the @MissUniverse crown, rest assured, The Silverbird Group will spare no expense or effort to bring the next Miss Universe pageant to Nigeria in 2025. We’ve learned from the past—those who remember our attempt to host Miss World in Nigeria in 2002 know the challenges we faced. But let me make this clear: what happened then will not repeat itself. Nigeria is set to reclaim its rightful place on the global stage, and there isn’t a force on earth that can stand in our way.”
Muktv reports that Chidimma Adetshina recently won Miss Universe Nigeria pageant after she was removed from Miss South Africa beauty contest over scrutiny of her nationality.
