KZN Premier Sihle Zikalala on behalf of the Provincial Government and the people of KwaZulu-Natal, joins all South African citizens in extending warm congratulations to Miss South Africa Zozibini Tunzi who was crowned Miss Universe at a lavish ceremony in Atlanta, USA, this morning.
"This is amazing news that makes us all proud to be South African. Thanks to the new Miss Universe, South Africa is shining on yet another world stage today," said KZN Premier Sihle Zikalala.
Ms Tunzi will inspire other young people of our country to realise that your background and family circumstances cannot and should not determine your success in life. She has clearly demonstrated that as a young woman from South Africa you too can ascend to world stages and conquer.
“This monumental achievement at this prestigious competition is coming hot on the heels of the victory we scored during the Rugby World Cup and the Netball Team victory is a clear proof that we are indeed a country of winners and that we will always be stronger together” said Premier Zikalala
"South Africa's showing on world stage has now become an established tradition. Well done to all South Africans who do us proud internationally," said Zikalala.
