The Department of Home Affairs has cleared up the confusion surrounding Miss SA finalist Chidimma Adetshina, whose nationality has been questioned.

Since revealing that her father is Nigerian and her mother is a South African with Mozambican roots, the 23-year-old has been victimized by angry pageant fans who believe she should not win or represent South Africa.On social media, various high-profile figures, including Prince Kaybee, Pearl Thusi, Gayton McKenzie, Herman Mashaba, and Julius Malema, have shared their comments on the scandal.

 

 

 

 

Speaking to Clement Manyathela on 702, Home Affairs Deputy Minister Njabulo Nzuza attempted to set the record straight on Chidimma Adetshina and questions over her citizenship.Nzuza began by claiming that he was not at liberty to publicly reveal confidential information about any citizen, including Chidimma.However, he did clear up confusion on what constitutes citizenship, which, according to the Citizenship Act, is acquired by birth, descent, or by naturalization.

Chidinma Vanessa Nzuza said, “It is commonly acquired either by soil or by blood. When we say soil, it’s because you are born in that country, and then you become a citizen.

“One country which has adopted this is America, whereby if you are born there, you become a US citizen. [However], in South Africa, you get citizenship by blood. One of your parents must be a South African. Then you qualify.

He continued: “If a person suspects that there is a person who is unworthy of citizenship or might have wrongly obtained citizenship, they do have a right to come to Home Affairs, and then we investigate.“If citizenship has been obtained in a wrong way, we have taken back the citizenship and indicated that it was obtained via fraud.

“In some cases, its not the actual person, but it is the parents of that person who have obtained citizenship. When we take away the citizenship which was erroneously or fraudulently obtained, then the child also loses citizenship”.

“I’ve heard a lot of people say that if you are born in South Africa, you are a citizen. No, in South Africa, citizenship is by blood”.Clarifying, Nzuza added that a child born in South Africa to foreign parents could obtain citizenship if their parents had a permit residency.

He continued: “The children follow the status of their parents.

“If a parent is here on a permanent residence and their child is born here, then that child qualifies for permanent residency.

“If a South African mother adopts a child, then that child can become a South African.”

The South African reached out to the Miss SA organization for comment. It confirmed that both Chidimma Adetshina and her mother are South African citizens. It also confirmed that Chidimma met all the necessary criteria to enter the pageant.

The organization also declined to comment further on the social media backlash.

Fans Urge Dr Malinga to Take DNA Test After Baby’s Birth Sparks Speculation

Amidst the joyful announcement of Dr Malinga’s newest family member, social media is buzzing with speculation and controversy. The beloved singer and television host, known for his energetic performances, recently shared the exciting news of his sixth child’s birth, a baby girl named Talent Malinga. However, fans and followers have raised eyebrows due to the baby’s noticeably lighter complexion compared to her siblings.

 

 

The unexpected skin tone of the newborn has led to a surge of speculation and concern among fans on social media, with some urging Dr Malinga to take a DNA test to confirm the baby’s paternity. This wave of speculation has overshadowed what should be a joyous occasion for the Malinga family.

Public Reaction and Speculation

One user commented, “Wow, congratulations Dr Malinga and your family. But I think a DNA test might clear things up, just for peace of mind.”

Another added, “The baby’s complexion is quite different; it’s best to get a DNA test and be sure.”

The speculation has also led to some humor, with one user joking, “Yah, her name resonates with your talent of making babies shem… but maybe check just in case?”

Dr Malinga’s Response
As of now, Dr Malinga has not publicly addressed the rumors or the calls for a DNA test. The situation has put the family in an uncomfortable spotlight, highlighting the often intrusive nature of public speculation.

Dr Malinga, who is well-known for his lively persona and candid nature, shared his happiness with the arrival of baby Talent, calling her “God’s blessing” in a heartfelt social media post. The joyful occasion has been marred by these questions, yet many fans continue to offer their support and well-wishes.

Conclusion
The Malinga family’s experience underscores the challenges public figures often face in maintaining privacy and dealing with speculation. While some fans are pushing for a DNA test to confirm the baby’s paternity, it is important to remember the personal and sensitive nature of such situations.

22-Year-Old Socialite Divorces 59-Year-Old Husband After Viral Wedding
In a shocking turn of events, Ghanaian socialite Mya Jesus has reportedly divorced her 59-year-old husband, just a few months after their viral wedding. The couple’s whirlwind romance and age gap had previously stirred significant interest and debate on social media.

 

The Whirlwind
Mya Jesus, a popular TikTok star, captured the internet’s attention with her stunning wedding photos earlier this year. The 22-year-old revealed to her followers that she had known her husband for only a month and had been seeing him for just a few days before he proposed.The Breakup
According to various news outlets, Mya has now filed for divorce. A blogger known as “Sel The Bomb” has alleged that the socialite and her husband, referred to as Papito JM Julio, have not only broken up but also unfollowed each other on Instagram and removed all their engagement and wedding photos and videos from their pages.

“Mya Jesus and her Papito JM Julio have unfollowed each other on IG and wiped off their viral engagement/couple goals photos and videos from their Instagram pages,” the blogger reported.

Signs of Trouble
The blogger also noted that Mya did not publicly wish Julio a happy birthday two days ago, which is unusual given their history of flaunting their relationship on social media. This omission fueled further speculation about the status of their marriage.

drama of polygamous relationships, so often explored in the Mseleku family, has taken a dramatic turn, spilling onto the screens of Izingane Zes’thembu and taking the nation by surprise.

Mpumelelo Mseleku, son of the polygamous patriarch Musa Mseleku, has found himself at the centre of a very public and very messy break-up, leaving viewers questioning the viability of his isithembu aspirations.

The season finale of the Mzansi Magic show saw Mpumelelo’s first girlfriend, Vuyokazi Nciweni, walking away from their relationship, leaving him with his second girlfriend, Tirelo Kale. The break-up, which unfolded on screen, was far from amicable, culminating in a near-physical altercation between the two women.

Season 2 was a rollercoaster of emotions,” Tirelo told Daily Sun. “We filmed so much but reality TV will only show a bit of what was filmed. Some things aren’t there. I didn’t go there and pretend to be something I’m not when cameras are on. If something happens off-camera, I won’t go on camera and be different about it. That’s not who I am,” Tirelo said. “The season finale didn’t show everything. Viewers didn’t see everything. The part they showed me crying, I didn’t just cry out of nowhere, it started somewhere. They know why I cried. I know my truth and how everything unfolded.”

 

 

 

Despite the on-screen drama, Tirelo confirmed that she and Mpumelelo are still together, navigating the choppy waters of their relationship, despite the distance. “We’re still cruising nicely,” she added, a hint of defiance in her voice. “To those predicting doom, I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.”

Vuyokazi, on the other hand, has moved on, leaving the tumultuous world of Mpumelelo’s isithembu behind. “The show was toxic, but a real experience. I regret not speaking up sooner. I was always told to respect the man, which made me look foolish,” she said, her voice laced with a sense of liberation.

Her decision to leave, she clarified, wasn’t influenced by Mpumelelo’s desire to marry a virgin as his first wife, despite her being his first girlfriend. “I healed while I was in the relationship. I had been made an idiot. The whole virgin thing showed me he didn’t need me even after I gave him two kids. Even if he would’ve changed his mind, made me the first wife, or even married me, I’d still not be happy in that marriage. I’d rather move on with my life.”

Vuyokazi’s words paint a stark picture of the complexities of modern relationships, particularly within the context of polygamous unions. The traditional values of respect and deference, often upheld in polygamous families, have clashed with the modern desire for individual autonomy and emotional fulfillment.

“My kids stay with me now,” Vuyokazi said, her voice softening as she spoke of her children. “I want them to grow in one place, and don’t want them to be introduced to different girls. How are they going to love them if they don’t love me,”

Her words resonate with a universal truth: the well-being of children should always be paramount, regardless of the complexities of adult relationships.

Mpumelelo, for his part, has remained silent, declining to comment on the unfolding drama. The production company of Izingane Zes’thembu confirmed that he chose not to participate in any interviews.

His silence speaks volumes, adding another layer of complexity to the already tangled narrative.

The break-up of Mpumelelo’s isithembu has sparked a national conversation about the realities of polygamous relationships in modern South Africa. Is it a viable path to happiness, or is it a recipe for heartbreak and conflict? The answer, it seems, is far from simple.
