Big Brother Naija Season 9 winner, Kellyrae, has expressed frustration over the growing number of financial requests from family and friends. The reality star shared that ever since he revealed online that he gave his wife, Kassia, N55 million from his prize money, he has been inundated with requests for assistance.
In a recent interview with media personality Hero Daniels, Kellyrae explained that the constant demands have become overwhelming. He urged those seeking financial favors to give him time to settle.
"I started receiving calls from people close to us after I mentioned giving Kassia N55 million, and they were asking for their share of my prize money," Kellyrae said.
He continued, "I just want to say to everyone, I’m not rich yet, please. The money may seem big, but things are expensive. Even buying eggs—how many crates can I afford? Please, allow a brother to settle first."
Kellyrae walked away with a grand prize of N60 million and a brand-new car worth N40 million after winning the ninth edition of Big Brother Naija. Despite the significant winnings, he emphasized that financial responsibilities are high, and he needs time before fulfilling other obligations.
