Asked by host Steve Harvey what young girls needed to be
taught, Zozibini said: “I think the most important thing we should be teaching
young girls today is leadership.
“It's something that has been lacking in young girls for a
very long time, not because we don't want to [take leadership], but because of
how society has labelled women to be.”
She further emphasised the power women held: “Nothing is as
important as taking up space in society and cementing yourself,” she said.
Just hours before emerging victorious, Tunzi shared a
heartwarming message, in which she thanked her parents for raising her to
become the confident and grounded woman she is.
Tunzi is known for her passion for breaking beauty
stereotypes and promoting women empowerment, subjects she spoke proudly about
on stage.
The pictures she shared on Instagram showed her sandwiched between
her parents just days before her departure to Atlanta, US, where the Miss
Universe pageant was held.
“I am because you are. You have given me life, you've
raised me to be the woman I am, so that I can stand in a faraway land proudly
knowing I'm rooted and where I'm from,” she said.
