Public Suggests Postponement for Miss Universe DRC 2025 Representative Amid Concerns Over Candidate Readiness
Tension is rising within the Miss Universe Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) organization following public concern about the readiness of contestants in the current edition. According to sources close to the organization, the National Director of Miss Universe DRC has been approached by several individuals—both internally and from the wider public—voicing observations that the candidates participating in this year's edition are not adequately prepared to compete at the international level.
As a result, there has been a growing proposal from the public suggesting that the eventual winner of Miss Universe DRC 2025 should instead be reserved for the 2026 international edition to allow sufficient time for grooming and preparation. To ensure strong representation in 2025, the public has proposed selecting an experienced former candidate instead. Among the names mentioned, Dorcas Dienda has been highlighted as a strong potential representative due to her previous performance and public appeal.
In response to the widespread discussion, the National Director addressed the matter directly through a video statement published on her Instagram page earlier this morning. The development reflects the passionate engagement of the Congolese audience in ensuring quality representation on the global Miss Universe stage. Further official communication from the organization is expected as the situation evolves.
