Mercy Eke has been chastised for lying to fans about her poverty in order to gain sympathy votes on BBNaija, despite the fact that she comes from a wealthy family.

Mercy Eke, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 4, has been accused of scamming viewers with a fake compassion narrative by a guy on the internet.

This comes after the reality star’s father’s funeral, which gave the public a closer look into her family, revealing how well-off they were even before she joined the BBNaija reality program.

As Mercy Eke exposes her family’s above-average position, Chisom, a fan, accuses her of lying about being from a poor family in order to gain sympathy votes.

The user wrote in a lengthy thread:

“Forget about Yul Edochie Jets’ claims that Mercy Eke duped us into voting for her to win #BBNaija.” Tell me about “we are impoverished, my brothers were unable to attend school,” and how you “sold fuel and corn.”

See the house she built before Bbnaija at her father’s compound. Her local friends in Egbu Owerri informed me the other day that she was living large before BBNaija, and that her mother had benz at the time.

So, where did the idea of being poor and having a single source of income come from? Everyone voted for her because they felt sorry for her.

Her father’s funeral was the buzz of the town.

“Prominent persons” from Owerri were among those who attended.

So, Mercy Eke, when and how did you become impoverished? We bought the chilly Zobo you sold us. Liar! People told me how wealthy you were before BBNAIJA while I was at the cemetery yesterday.

Nigerians must learn how to vote correctly. Stop voting out of sympathy; the winners of Big Brother Naija should be deserving, not manipulative.

That’s how White Money got its cooking capabilities. Please don’t vote for pity next year, Big Brother Naija.

Don’t let yourself be manipulated! Vote for the individual who truly deserves it. Mercy Eke has given me a new perspective.”
