Reality TV star Mercy Eke has apologized for a tweet posted by her social media handler, labeling Big Brother Naija housemate Onyeka a “gold digger.”
The handler’s tweet accused Onyeka of being in a relationship with Ozee Mbadiwe for his wealth. However, Mercy Eke quickly distanced herself from the comment, explaining that her handler was responsible for the post.
Eke stated that she had left all Big Brother Naija-related drama behind and couldn’t have involved herself in this season’s controversy. She apologized to Onyeka’s fans, calling the situation “embarrassing” and emphasizing that the tweet didn’t represent her views.
This apology was tendered during ongoing drama in the Big Brother Naija ‘No Loose Guard’ house, following the reintroduction of evicted housemates Rhuthee, Chinwe, and Dami.
