I Have Nothing Against Her – BBNaija Star, Imisi Speaks On Rift With Her Mum

Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner Imisi has spoken candidly about her strained relationship with her mother, revealing that she is ready to forgive and move forward.

In an interview on Channels TV, Imisi reflected on the distance between her and her mother over the years.

She described their connection during her childhood as weak but said she holds no resentment now.

The reality TV star expressed understanding for the challenges her mother faced raising a child and said she believes forgiveness is possible.

Imisi also shared that while their relationship has been complicated, both of them are doing well in life. She added that she hopes her mother continues to seek guidance and support in her personal journey.

“She is my mom, and I’m a woman, I know the pain it takes to bring a child into this world. If God wills it… yeah, I can forgive her. I’ve forgiven people who aren’t even related to me, so of course I can forgive her.

“Growing up, we didn’t really have a strong relationship. But I don’t have anything against her. She’s doing well, and I’m doing well. Honestly, I don’t know. Maybe she should just be a better person. But she should keep praying the Lord is with her”, she said.

Their strained relationship gained public attention months after Imisi’s Big Brother Naija win, when videos surfaced of her mother accusing her of neglect.

Imisi explained that their issues existed long before her fame and that she has been supportive despite the difficulties.

Ijeoma Josephina Otabor, the reality TV star, who is better known as Phyna, has stirred online reactions after a video of her discussing marriage laws went viral.

In the video, Phyna said the only thing she wants is a change in the law to give women the freedom to marry the way men do.

The former Bbnaija winner argued that women should not be restricted to marrying just one man while men are allowed to take more than one wife.

The actress explained that if the law is adjusted, women should be free to marry as many husbands as they choose.

Using an example, Phyna said she would like to marry up to five men if given the chance and treat them equally.

According to her, all the men would wear the same clothes and enjoy the same lifestyle without discrimination.

Phyna also mentioned practices in other countries, such as India, suggesting that Nigeria could adopt a system that allows women to have multiple husbands if they wish.

She described herself as someone ready to become a polygamous woman if such a law existed.

The former reality star added that women should be bold and united in pushing for such changes, saying they should move together and live large.

She said: “See, the only thing I want now is that they should just change the law.

“I go marry like five men, you dey whine? I go buy the same clothes for all of them, the five of them. I’m going to be a polygamous woman.

“Then we go come buy Sprinter. Instead of Sienna, we’ll go buy a Sprinter.”

Forgive Me – Actress Nkechi Blessing Apologizes To BBNaija Star, Imisi Over ‘Offensive’ Question About Mother (Video)

Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing has issued a public apology to Imisi Ayanwale, winner of Big Brother Naija Season 10.

The reality TV star cum Nollywood actress threw a lavish birthday party attended by many celebrities, including Do2dtun, Bisola Aiyeola, Kiekie, Nkechi Blessing, Brodashaggi, BBNaija Kola, Mide, Mitchy, Isabella, Kayvee, and many others.

During a question-and-answer session at the birthday party, Nkechi asked Imisi, who has been at loggerheads with her mother for a long time, if she would ever forgive and reconcile with her.

However, Nkechi Blessing’s question generated mixed reactions online, with some netizens attacking her.

Responding to the massive online backlash, Nkechi, in a video on her Instagram page, tendered a heartfelt apology to the reality star and her fans.

According to the movie star, the question was never intended or meant to chase clout, adding that anyone who finds the question offensive should forgive her.

She said, “I sincerely want to apologise to anybody who got offended by the question I asked Imisi a couple of hours ago at her party. If you find my question offensive, I am sorry. Find a place in your heart to forgive me. Whoever is dragging me, fighting me, abusing me, please don’t be offended.”

The loggerheads began when Imisi’s mother posted videos online, saying she had been abandoned and still lived in poor conditions despite Imisi’s N150 million win.

The videos, released on November 16, showed her mother expressing frustration and insisting she would not plead for help.

In her response shared on her Instagram page, Imisi stated that her mother was not involved in her life before her BBNaija victory, saying that long periods would pass without any contact.

She said the sudden public outburst shocked her because the relationship had always been strained.

Imisi explained that she has supported her mother over the years and had sent money even in the days leading up to the controversy.

She added that she cannot use her prize money for personal comfort of one person since many family members now depend on her.

AFCON: ‘NFF Is A Very Unserious Organization’ – BBNaija Star, Tacha Blows Hot After Super Eagles Loss To Morocco

Former Big Brother Naija housemate Natasha Akide, popularly known as Tacha, has criticized the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) over the Super Eagles’ defeat to Morocco.

Recall that Super Eagles lost 4-2 on penalties to the hosts in Rabat, effectively ending their dream of a fourth continental title.

In an Instagram post on Thursday, Tacha joined other Nigerians in condemning the selection of two referees from rival countries for Wednesday’s game.

Describing the NFF as a very unserious organisation, the reality TV star said they would have petitioned the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to change the referees.

She wrote, “The @thenff is a very unserious organization. Two referees from rival countries. Ghana and South Africa How?? The moment those referees were announced, the NFF should have petitioned CAF! And even if CAF refuses to change them, the petition alone puts referees on CHECK.

“But Instead, silence. And what did we get? One of the worst officiated games in the history of football. The referee disrupted the rhythm of the match nonstop. Fouls were given that made no sense. Even Moroccan players sometimes looked unsure what the whistle was for. That’s how bad it was.

“This wasn’t “home advantage.” This was shambolic officiating. If the @thenff has any sense, they will petition CAF, demand a review, and question whether that referee should be handling games at this level at all. CAUSE performances like that damage the credibility of African football.”
