“But you know Nigerians or the fans na, if there is something they want to believe, if you like be telling them the truth, they will say that one I hold, I just have to believe and that is okay,”
“No be broke people do body na. If you say I have done it, that is it. I kind of like took off fat (out of my arm) and I fixed my teeth too. So it was just like the only two procedures I did. $10k in my mouth. It is actually $30k. I am mixing it up.
 
“So it was just basically for my teeth and my arm. And that was it really.”
Tacha participated in the 2019 edition of BBNaija.
Since then, she has crafted a name for herself in the entertainment industry.
The reality star ventured into the fashion industry and also launched her own merchandise.

It’s Silly For Frodd To Leave His Pregnant Wife For BBN – Twitter User Slams Housemate

A Twitter user, Daniel Regha has lambasted BBNaija All Stars housemate Frodd.
Regha said it is insensitive of Frodd to leave his heavily pregnant wife to join the BBN show.
Frodd was part of the introduced housemate who joined this season’s Big Brother Naija All Stars reality show.
Recall that a few weeks ago, Frodd and his lovely wife, Chioma, announced that they were expecting the arrival of their first baby.
In a Twitter post, Regha wrote:
“Frodd left his heavily pregnant wife to join the BBN show; That’s silly. Again, there’s no reason why rich hms should be among the hms, especially winners from previous seasons. BBN isn’t a poverty alleviation program, but it shouldn’t be a platform to elevate the flirty rich”.
