The reigning Miss Botswana queen, Anicia Gaothuse has assured the nation that she is ‘fine’ following allegations of fallout with the management of the pageantry. The management came under fire from social media commentators and fans after claims that they were planning to fire Gaothuse, refused to give her car prize. The management also found itself under heavy criticism for her ‘wardrobe malfunction’.

However during a joint press briefing earlier today (Thursday), both Gaothuse and the management denied the allegations. Gaothuse said she was fine and had no issues with the pageantry management. “I am fine. I am okay. I want to take a moment to address something that has been weighing heavily on my heart. From the very beginning of my journey to becoming Miss Botswana, one of the things I am most proud of is being a true testament to what a united nation can achieve, which is why I wear the crown of unity,” the reigning queen told journalists in Gaborone. She said throughout the competition, she has received unconditional love. “Throughout the competition, complete strangers showed me love and sponsored everything I needed without me even asking because they believed in me and had faith that I could represent our country well. I continue to receive this love through the many messages of support, encouragement I am getting daily and for that, I am forever grateful,” she said.
