Mercy had a strong reaction as she confronted Ilebaye for portraying herself as the victim under attack by other housemates on ‘BBNaija All Stars’.
What began as a conversation during their work on the weekly wager task quickly escalated into an argument. Both parties made multiple attempts to express their opinions on the participation of other All Stars in preparing for the task.
Mercy became frustrated with Ilebaye’s continuous complaints about the attitudes of other housemates toward the task. She raised her voice, saying, “Nobody is attacking you… shut up, shut your trap. Stop trying to play the victim… Look at your left and right we are working, stop acting like we are not working… are you trying to shun me up”
She also urged Ilebaye not to dismiss Soma when he attempted to address her concerns. However, Ilebaye argued that her statements were not directed at either of them.
Mercy also reminded Ilebaye of her previous behavior during wager tasks when other housemates were in charge, which contributed to the argument.
This incident was not the first time Ilebaye had been called out for her lackluster participation in wager tasks. Venita had confronted her for similar reasons on Wednesday, September 20, 2023.
Ilebaye has faced challenges in leading the house this week, despite holding the Head of House title.
