Mercy Eke, winner of the Big Brother Naija ‘Pepper Dem’ edition, has stated that nasty comments made by online trolls get to her because she’s human, like everyone else.
The reality star revealed this in an interview with TV personality, Taymesan.
“Sometimes it does (get to me) because I am human, especially when lies are told about me, and I cannot defend myself. Sometimes, I just wallow in anger and wish I can say things as they are with proof. The trolling (cyber bullying) hurts me most times because they say horrible things to me.”
Speaking on several rumours peddled about her, Mercy Eke revealed that she has never been married, contrary to what people have said. In her words:
“They said I have been married, that I have been pregnant. At this stage of my life, I have to get it right. I am a lover girl and I give love.”
The BBNaija star also added that she’s never cowered by what people say or do:
“I don’t think anyone can intimidate me. Aside from the proper London girls, most of these girls have horrible accents. I attract people that like the real me. I have nothing to hide, and there is nothing to be intimidated by. I am doing pretty well, and many of the girls (that criticise me) want to be me. They want to be in my circle.”
