During the nomination session on Monday, July 24, Kiddwaya nominated Ilebaye and referred to her as a ‘low-hanging fruit’ and a ‘red meat in the midst of lions.’ He insinuated that she should leave the show early so the stronger contenders can compete.

In a seeming reaction to his statement, Queen, a former housemate from the ‘Shine Ya Eye’ season, expressed her disappointment in the housemates for belittling Ilebaye.

She strongly condemned any form of intimidation in the house, and emphasized that nobody is superior to Ilebaye, as they are all competing for the same coveted grand prize.

The mother of one shared a photo of Ilebaye with the caption: “I hate intimidation in every form. Not fair the way some HMS are treating her.

Girl stand up for yourself in there. No one in there is bigger than you. If they come for you, go for them … everyone in there, went there for same reason you’re there….”
