“People Think I’m Lying When I Tell Them There’s No Connection To Bbnaija “- Erica Says

Bbnaija “lockdown ” star, Erica Nlewedim has confirmed Uti Nwachukwu’s statement earlier today about the big brother reality show.

Uti tweeted:

“It seems like 90% of the youth view Big brother Naija as their only hope for a breakthrough in Nigeria.

But please I am begging u people, STOP LOOKING FOR SHORTCUTS!!
WHATEVER happened to EARNING your spot!

They way my phones have been ringing for the past 2 weeks is actually

Worrisome. Let’s not even get started on the dms🤦🏾‍♂️.
The conversation is always the same: Please who can I pay?what are the connections? Put me inside na?🤦🏾‍♂️”

“Sigh. You guys have it easy o! In my time it was Big brother AFRICA! ONLY 1 SPOT WAS AVAILABLE!! so who did I know ?Who cld

Have possibly rigged it to give an unknown hustling University undergrad from delta state, the only available Slot for Nigeria?

Now you have at least 15 if not 20 slots and you can’t believe in yourself enough to earn your own slot?

To the point that some have insulted me for

Telling them the truth that there are no connections or payments for a slot in the big brother show.

Saying things like : ” bro this wickedness is not the way. U don chop ur own,u no wan make we chop abi? Man no be God. I go make am”
🤦🏾‍♂️
I AM TIRED. Nor be me get show abeg. But

Stop with the calls&messages.
Stop looking for non existing connections.
People have been scammed of millions! Cosof this!
BE AND BELIEVE IN YOURSELF and hope for the best. If its ur time NOTHING CAN STOP U!

Fun Fact : I wasn’t the first choice for BBA All stars🤫I was a last”

“min replacement to the extent that some things were still in the persons name when I arrived SA. 🤣
I thought I was a decoy till I climbed that stage. But guess who won the show? Lol

Another fun Fact:
