Former Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidimma Adetshina, says she is “depressed” but remains determined to continue fighting after a South African court postponed judgment in her deportation case until August 19.

The Cape Town Regional Court on Monday reserved judgment on whether Adetshina should be detained pending deportation after hearing arguments from both her legal team and South Africa’s Department of Home Affairs.

The 25-year-old beauty queen was arrested in Cape Town in June over allegations that she is residing in South Africa illegally.
