Later, she paired with Lolu, another housemate, because she and Tobi had problems. Not long, she fought with Lolu as well and they got two strikes each. However, Big Brother (Biggie) cancelled their strikes after he re-introduced two previously evicted housemates, Anto and Khloe.

“When I went for Big Brother Naija, I wasn’t so sure of what I wanted to do in the entertainment industry. But being in the house, it became clearer by the day.
