Mercy Eke Bursts into Sobs During a Diary Session and Requests to Leave Voluntarily

Mercy Eke, a housemate in BBNaija Season 8 All-Stars edition, was in tears during her diary session and requested for a voluntary departure as she recalled the recent confrontation that occurred between her and fellow housemate Alex the previous night after the Guinness game.

Recall that Mercy Eke and Alex engaged in a verbal argument that escalated, resulting in a heated exchange. Although Mercy Eke’s outburst was brief, Alex escalated the situation by ranting about the incident and calling Mercy Eke derogatory names throughout the home.

Yesterday, during their conversation, Alex revealed that her outburst was prompted by Mercy Eke’s remark that she frequently becomes agitated and unhappy whenever she loses a game or fails to achieve a goal.

The following day, Mercy Eke revealed in her journal that Alex had told her to “go and die,” a statement that had a profound effect on her and left her feeling extremely alone. She confided in Big Brother that she normally endeavors to be strong, but the impact of the statement weighed heavily on her, leaving her feeling exhausted and at times considering leaving the house.

Mercy Eke stated, “When Alex said, ‘Go and die,’ I didn’t think it was a huge deal, even though she claimed she didn’t say it. As I considered it further, I realized that I would never tell someone to “go and die.”

“Last night, I found myself ruminating about it, and that’s when a sense of isolation began to set in. I dislike being alone because I aspire to be’very strong.’ This is my method.”

“I didn’t want to release tears here, but I considered that since Alex was still present and Prince had just joined, I wouldn’t feel lonely. However, following the argument, I felt exceedingly sad.”

“It was unanticipated that I would get into a fight with Alex, of all people. Now, I am confused. I suppose… I am eager to go home.”
