“I have so far approached Ministry of Tourism. They said they will respond to the proposals as soon as possible,” she said.
Meanwhile, Chitedze has intensified her social media campaign to raise the funds to contribute to her expenses.
Contributions can be made via Mobile Money on Mpamba 0888365645, Airtel Money 0991188678 and Standard Bank account number 9100000770830.

Miss Pan African Queen President Trendy Isaac also appealed to respective governments and stakeholders to support their country representatives.
