BBNaija star, Ilebaye, recently disclosed what transpired between her and Ike Onyema after her eviction from the house.
During a recent interview with Chude, Ilebaye opened up about her emotions surrounding the incident with Ike in the BBNaija house.
When she was asked about her feelings during that moment, Ilebaye candidly expressed her deep sadness and a sense of unworthiness. She questioned why she deserved such treatment and wished for better communication. She described her emotional state as one of extreme hurt, and she longed for a resolution that didn’t involve her clothes being thrown.
Ilebaye said, “I felt sad. I felt low. I felt like what did I do to deserve this? Like any human would literally be hurt. Even if I’ve hurt you, I’ve said something bad about you, you should have just come to me and told me Ilebaye, this is bad. You should have just done something that I would know yes, I’m wrong. But not throwing my clothes. I just felt like god, just open the ground, let me just enter inside. Cuz I was literally so so sad. My energy just went so low.”
When asked how she coped with intense moments like this in the house, Ilebaye revealed her coping mechanisms. She shared that she would often retreat to her bed, allowing herself to cry and release her emotions. Sometimes, she sought solace in the privacy of the toilet, where she could freely express her feelings through tears. Prayer also played a role in her recovery process, providing her with comfort and strength.
In her words, “I just go to bed, and sleep, and cry. I either go into the toilet and cry out my mind, or I go to bed, pray, cry, and sleep.”
Despite the challenging experiences they had in the house, Ilebaye and Ike have successfully reconciled after leaving the Big Brother Naija house. Ilebaye revealed that she had a direct conversation with Ike about the incident, and he sincerely apologized while acknowledging his wrongs. Since then, their relationship has significantly improved, and they have been able to engage in friendly conversations.
Ilebaye emphasized her lack of grudges and her willingness to move forward. She said, “But I and Ike, we are cool now. Once outside the house I talked to him, I asked him about it, and he apologized. I came out, and he said ‘congratulations, I am so sorry for what happened in the house.’ We even gist. If I see him, we just talk.”
