“Miss Universe Zozibini Tunzi will not arrive with politicians on the red carpet. She will enter through a private entrance with President Cyril Ramaphosa,” said Walker.

According to Walker, Tunzi will be dressed by none other than designer to the stars Gert-Johan Coetzee.

“She will not be wearing the Miss Universe crown, but she will be wearing the sash,” Walker said.

Tunzi returned to SA on Saturday for the first time since securing the coveted Miss Universe title in Atlanta, US, in December.

Ramaphosa asked Tunzi to be the ambassador against GBV as he took up the position of AU chair at the weekend.
