BBNaija’s Ike Warns Mercy Eke, Threatens To Expose Her

Ike Onyema, a former housemate on Big Brother Naija, has threatened to reveal his ex-girlfriend Mercy Eke if she keeps making unfavorable remarks about him.

While responding to previous remarks made by Eke about their relationship, the reality TV star made this clear.

Mercy Eke had revealed during one of the episodes of the podcast 'Frankly Speaking' that she once dated someone she was taking care of.

When one of the hosts, Nedu, assumed she was talking to their well-publicized romance, she vehemently denied dating Ike.

Ike quickly refuted the notion that any lady had ever looked after him while they were together.

"I am responding to this, because it’s obvious that the producers of this podcast can’t pay for ads to promote the dead podcast, so as usual, they look for who to attack to indirectly promote their dead podcast, well congratulations you have Triggered perfectly, for over two years my image and reputation have constantly been dragged to the mud," he wrote.

"So it’s time to swim with pigs, I am making a bold statement that no lady whosoever has taken care of me. If anyone claims otherwise they should bring out receipts of one thing they have done, I have been quiet because I don’t also want to expose so many people including the show."

"So I intentionally allowed myself to be ridiculed, but that era is over, people that can’t take care of their family coming out to chat shit about me, @nedu_wazobiafm and @prettymikeoflagos please be careful how involve yourself in things you have no idea of the background story."

"I respect both of you but I would not hesitate to call you guys out if I’m being disrespected to please your principals and the bosses that hired you. This should be the last time anyone would use me to count cheap scores."

"I would start dropping receipts and exposing everyone if this continues, I have enough receipts to go around and everybody go collect, enough is enough!!!!! A word is enough for the wise!!!!!"

Following their time together in Big Brother Naija's fourth season, Eke and Ike started dating.

By 2020, it was clear that the widely publicized couple had problems.

Eke claimed that she had gotten married by November of that year.

She also urged followers to refrain from enquiring about her ex-boyfriend.
