Specifically, Chidimma Adetshina was asked the question: "What is more important, being respected or being loved?". She replied: "I think respect is the most important. We live in a society where when you respect others, others will respect you."

Chidimma Adetshina participated in several beauty pageants before winning the title of 1st Runner-up at Miss Universe 2024.

After that, the Miss Universe Nigeria organizers invited Chidimma Adetshina to participate and she won, becoming the representative of Nigeria to Miss Universe 2024.

Before the Miss Universe 2024 Final, the Nigerian representative had never been ranked among the brightest candidates and had a high chance of winning. In the prediction tables of the Missosology website, although the Nigerian candidate was always mentioned, she never reached the Top 10, nor was she among the group of beauties that the audience paid attention to.

Yet, at the Miss Universe 2024 Final, Chidimma Adetshina went straight into the Top 5 and won the 1st Runner-up position. This is considered the biggest surprise of Miss Universe 2024 when the Nigerian beauty defeated many highly rated contestants such as representatives from Peru, Chile, Thailand and Puerto Rico.
