 The credibility of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) voters’ register has come under intense scrutiny ahead of the 2027 general elections, following revelations by INEC Chairman Professor Joash Amupitan that names of deceased persons remain on the register. Amupitan disclosed that names of voters who died as far back as 15 years ago are still listed, a situation critics say could undermine the integrity of the 2027 polls and lead to significant financial waste through the printing of excess ballot papers and other election logistics. The INEC chairman made the revelation while receiving the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Abisoye Coker-Odusote, and her management team during a courtesy visit in Abuja on Wednesday.

Reigning Miss South Africa; Mia Le Roux withdraws from the 2024 Miss Universe pageant stating health concerns.

Mia Le Roux is thankful to South Africans for the support she received during her time at the Miss Universe pageant.

Statement from the Miss South Africa Organisation

It is with deep regret that we share the news that Mia Le Roux, Miss South Africa 2024, has had to withdraw from the Miss Universe competition due to health concerns.

Mia Le Roux expresses, “I am profoundly thankful for the unwavering support from South Africa during my time at Miss Universe. Making this decision has been incredibly challenging, knowing the dreams and hopes that have been placed upon me. However, I am deeply grateful to have the opportunity to focus on my health and recovery so that I may continue to serve my country with full strength.”

The Miss South Africa Organisation states, “Mia has shown incredible courage and grace throughout this difficult period. Her health and well-being are our utmost priority, and we stand by her side, dedicated to ensuring she regains her strength and returns to full health. Our hearts are with her as she takes the necessary steps toward recovery.”

Le Roux’s withdrawal comes against the backdrop of a controversial year for the Miss South Africa pageant.
Chidimma Adetshina, a contestant of Nigerian and South African heritage, withdrew from the competition following a social media backlash over her nationality.
Adetshina, 23, was born in Soweto to a Nigerian father and a South African mother of Mozambican descent.
The controversy deepened after the South African Home Affairs Ministry launched an investigation, revealing allegations that her mother may have committed identity theft.
In the wake of the backlash, Adetshina was invited to participate in the Miss Universe Nigeria 2024 pageant, which she ultimately won.
Le Roux, a descendant of Dutch settlers known as Boers, was subsequently crowned Miss South Africa 2024.

Last month, Ms Le Roux expressed her excitement about the chance to represent South Africa on the Miss Universe stage terming it a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for my voice to be heard".
She said then that she hoped to showcase her country’s "beautiful diversity".
She was diagnosed with profound hearing loss at the age of one and has a cochlear implant to help her perceive sound.
In an earlier interview, she said it had taken two years of speech therapy before she was able to say her first words. She spoke passionately about her journey, acknowledging the challenges she has faced.
