Former Big Brother Naija housemates, Maria Chike Benjamin and Ike Onyema have engaged in a heated exchange over their colleague, Mercy Eke.
Tensions flared between the two housemates on Monday evening when Maria Chike decided to taunt Ike Onyema regarding Mercy Eke’s recent success in securing a spot as a finalist in the ongoing BBNaija All Stars reality show.
Ike, who himself had been a housemate on the BBNaija All Stars show, had previously expressed his intention to prevent Mercy from reaching the finals.
However, to his dismay, Mercy was announced as a finalist after receiving the fewest nominations.
Seizing the moment, Maria wasted no time in taking a dig at Ike on her Twitter page saying: “@ikeonyema How far???? Mercy is a finalist and 99% possibly winning the show!”
Ike, not one to back down, swiftly fired back by questioning Maria’s sanity. He wrote “Are you normal? She go come out and we go dey alright. Can’t say the same about you. Don’t let me enter you Because when I start, I won’t listen to Lekki boys. Low-budget clown”
KanyiDaily recalls that Mercy Eke recently received her first strike due to continuous violations of the BBNaija house rules, despite prior warnings.
