Big Brother Naija ‘shine ya eye’ housemate, Angel has stated that she doesn’t owe her friend and fellow housemate, Jackie B any loyalty and can flirt with Michael, Jackie’s love interest.
Recall that Jackie B opened up to her former besties, Angel about having feelings for Michael. However, days later Jackie expressed disappointment after catching Angel at different occasions, flirting with her man.
Seeing that someone she considered a friend was trying hard to get close to her man, Jackie started keeping her distance from Angel.
Angel in a conversation with Michael on Tuesday night stated that Jackie B sees her as a threat.
She complained about the rift between her and Jackie and claimed that Jackie had initially given her reasons why she could not be with Michael, and surprised that she’s giving attitude because she (Angel) is close to Michael.
According to her, even though Jackie considers her as her bestfriend in the house she doesn’t owe her any loyalty and can have Michael to herself if she so wishes.
“I just wanted you to know that my flirting with you is not that deep. If I wanted you I would have made my moves. But I know she likes you and she sees me as a threat or competition. If it was to be another girl this wouldn’t be an issue. The truth is, I don’t owe her any loyalty even though she calls me her bestie”, she said.
Big Brother Naija housemate, Maria has expressed her displeasure with her co-housemate, Angel, for flirting with Jackie B’s love interest, Michael.

However, Angel who had a close relationship with Jackie B before Michael’s entry into the house, has used her “powers” to snatch him.
She cited instances when Angel cooked for him, massaged his head for 2 hours and picked him during truth or dare games, despite knowing about his relationship with Jackie B.
Maria berated Angel and described her as disrespectful and not trustworthy.
She said in part: “I don’t see Angel as a threat but I don’t like her.
“I like some parts of her but she has no respect and that makes me see her differently and mention her name often here.
“It’s not personal but I don’t just like her character and she’s not trustworthy.
“I see Angel looking at Michael and I see that as disrespectful because she’s your friend’s man. I see that as a wrong move from her.”

Nollywood Actor, Timini Egbuson, has finally broken his silence on the recent spate of accusation he’s faced after he was called out by his ex, Lydia.
Recall that Lydia had called Timini a Manipulative Predator and cradle-snatcher, and the actor’s name has been trending online all week.
Reacting to the accusations, Timini said he’s dated women of legal consenting age, and Lydia’s case is one of a relationship gone wrong.
He wrote ;
I don’t normally address things as I have dealt with accusations my entire career, but after discussions with my team I have decided to speak up on this issue. Firstly, I would like to make clear beyond any doubt that I do not condone having relationships or courting anyone under the age of consent. Rumors are rumors, but baseless accusations of sexual abuse or grooming of under aged women is something I don’t take lightly given the severity of the issue.
Secondly, let’s be clear, I am a single adult man who has dated women of different ages, all of whom were older than the legal consenting age.
Lydia and I dated two years ago. We were both consenting adults at the time and our families knew and approved of each other. Our relationship didn’t work out due to circumstances we were both at fault for, which resulted in us parting ways. Our relationship was a volatile one and mistakes were made on both ends. Nevertheless, I learned from it and I have since moved on. I honestly, would like to put that chapter of my life behind me and I wish her well.
The official handler of Big Brother Naija housemate, Pere has issued a statement concerning the clash between him and Whitemoney last night.
The statement reads ;
The events of the last 24 hours, has stirred up mixed reactions, with a number of people expressing their displeasures and dislikes. Bullying of any form, for whatever reason is unacceptable and we do not condone or support it. We however want to use this medium to express that whiles Pere’s actions were somewhat uncomfortable to watch, it was in no way an act of bullying.
He is undoubtedly the most misjudged and misrepresented character owing to the complexities and audacity of his personality. He is neither afraid to make a mistake, fail, or be misjudged. He wears an overwhelming air of confidence that can easily be misinterpreted. We must be careful not to swap confrontation for bullying just to play into a convenient narrative. Was the confrontation unnecessary? Yes. Was it bullying? Absolutely not.
Much like any other sport, Big Brother is a game. Take soccer for example once a formidable player is identified, the game strategy is for the team to consolidate its strongest defence on that player and frustrate their tact by any means necessary. This in no way suggest hate or animosity.
One of Pere’s many strengths is to create situations that would provoke people to break character and reveal their other side. None of us are perfect and it is the multiplicity of emotional expressions that makes a well-rounded character, which makes for great TV.
Everything Pere has done since he set foot in the house, has been his strategic interpretation of playing the game. It is not in our place to determine the superiority of his strategy. So, we must be open minded to understand that all 22 house mates cannot act in the same way. Let every house mate play their game, Let Pere play his own game. Love him, hate him, win or lose, at the end of the day, it’s just a game.
We all as individuals and collectively have a huge role to play in the sanity of these housemates, both in house and outside. The rivalry between the housemates, especially our Charge, has brought a lot of hate, death threats and curses and this is unacceptable behaviour. We believe that every responsible media platform whilst expressing her right to support which ever candidate they choose, also has a moral and fairness obligation to ensure that their platform is not being used to harness violence and hatred towards a fellow human all in the name of a show.
To every Patriot and everyone who has been supporting Pere so far, thank you for your unwavering support. Going against the overwhelming tide is not an easy task so, we truly appreciate your loyalty. With your support, we would surmount any and every challenge to the very end.
