Big Brother Naija All-Stars first runner-up Mercy Eke has opened up on the lies she told in the house about having a billionaire boyfriend.
This revelation comes after she mentioned in the house that her boyfriend promised to give her the grand prize of N120m if she failed to participate on the show.
During her stay in the Big Brother house, Mercy Eke claimed her boyfriend exhibited possessive jealousy, advising her against entering the popular reality show.
However, in a recent interview with Toke Makinwa, Mercy Eke made a swift U-turn, confessing that she had fabricated the existence of a billionaire boyfriend.
The reality star explained that she had created this narrative in an attempt to deter male housemates from pursuing romantic relationships with her, as she was not interested in starting a relationship within the confines of the Big Brother house.
“There was no ship, I just used that to chase the guys away, I wanted to play the game,” she said
