Former Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidimma Adetshina, has revealed why she chose not to participate in Big Brother Naija 2025. Adetshina explained that her manager advised against joining the reality show, citing her ongoing responsibilities as Miss Universe Nigeria. Although she had expressed interest in BBNaija, she decided to focus on her education, modeling, and acting career. She is currently taking a break from pageantry to prioritize her mental health, addressing past traumatic experiences. Despite missing the 2025 edition, Adetshina plans to join BBNaija 2026. Reflecting on her time in Nigeria, she said: “I really enjoyed my stay in Nigeria, and even now, like I said, once I get my documents sorted, I am going back. Nigeria was really great for me.” She added: “The eight months I spent there were amazing. I feel there is more to explore; there are so many opportunities in Nigeria… so many things I would like to try — runways, acting, and explore many other areas. I really feel there’s more to explore, and I want to establish who Chidimma truly is.” On skipping this year’s BBNaija, she explained: “I also wanted to do ‘Big Brother’ this year, but then my manager was like, ‘No, you can’t do ‘Big Brother’ because you are still Miss Universe Nigeria.’” Nigeria was just WOW . I want also to do Big Brothers. Once I get my papers sorted out , I will go. 🙏 pic.twitter.com/k4ZLBVp5yl — Chidimma Adetshina (@chichi_vanessaa) November 24, 2025
