BBNaija Season 4 Pepper Dem Reunion - Mercy And Diane Talk About Ike And Elozonam

They played clips of Mercy and Ike being all lovey dovey on the show. 

Ebuka asked when Ike knew Mercy was “the one”. 

Ike said it was on second week of the PepperDem edition. Ebuka asked Ike why they always fought on the show and Ike said it was because he didn’t come to the house to find love. Mercy cut in and said Ike had been chasing her since auditions. Ike said he fell for Mercy because he saw that she had his back at all times in the house. Ike also said Mercy challenged him by calling herself a forbidden fruit so that made him more interested in her.


Ebuka asked Ike if he asked for Mercy for s#x during the show and he said he never asked directly. Ike said Mercy teased him a lot and left him hanging whenever he got charged up. 

Ebuka asked Mercy how she fell for Ike. She said it was about the 2nd/3rd week in the house. She said she didn’t feel him during the audition because all she wanted to do was get into the house to play the game solo. 

She said she was an avid Big Brother watcher and had watched a lot of editions to know that what mattered was the viewers loving you and not necessarily coupling up with another housemate. She said she fell for Ike because he was different, deep and had things going for him and different from any other guy she’s had before him.


Ebuka asked Mercy why they fought regularly and she said it was because he was always bringing the American mentality and she tried to make him understand that things were different in Nigeria. She said she kept correcting him and he kept adjusting. Ebuka asked if there was anytime Mercy continued with the relationship for sake of the viewers and she said no. She said Ike drives her crazy till date and their relationship in the house wasn’t for the views.

 Ebuka asked Mercy why she teased Ike on several occasions and she said it’s because she’s a professional teaser.


Ebuka asked them the present state of their relationship and they confirmed that they are still together.


Ebuka asked why the duo of Mercy and Ike were always unfollowing each other on social media and Mercy said Ike always blocked and unblocked her because he didn’t want to be seen as the person that unfollowed Mercy. 

She said Ike wanted it to be like it was a mutual action. Mercy said Ike acts that way because he’s childish. On the other hand, Ike said he won’t accept that his acts of blocking and unblocking Mercy is childish. Ike said that if Mercy and her fans do things to portray him in a certain light, he had no choice than to block her for his sanity. Mercy said Ike was always to quick to block whenever she asks for a break in their relationship. 

Mercy said she’s asks for breaks because she sometimes wants her space to see things differently and not because she wanted to breakup permanently. Ike said he blocks her preemptively because he assumes that Mercy is about to embarrass him whenever she asked for a break.


Ebuka asked Diane what she thinks about Mercy and Ike’s relationship and she said it wasn’t toxic but both parties need to grow. She said she had a problem with Ike blocking Mercy at the slightest chance. She said the couple are her friends and she loves them equally so she wasn’t taking anyone’s side. Diane said she always feels the heat the most whenever the couple fought but they are always quick to settle their issues. Diane advised Ike to cultivate the habit of being calm and also said that had to understand that girls love attention and that’s why Mercy acts the way she does sometimes.

They played a clip of Elozonam and Diane. Ebuka quizzed Elozonam on his relationship with Diane and he explained how it all started. Elozonam said he got into house and found it hard to adjust. He said he realized that he became socially awkward and Diane was the only one that made him comfortable. Ebuka asked Elozonam if he was aware of the other guys and Elozonam said Diane told him about them. He said they just agreed to have fun in the house and see what happens outside.




On the other hand, Diane said she’s normally attracted to dark skin guys but  looks at intellect and the inside when she finally gets to know a guy. Diane said Elozonam told her how he felt about her after he won the veto power. Diane said she told him that she couldn’t be sure of his feelings because she wasn’t sure of his true motive towards her. She admitted to liking him in the house. She also said she told him that they should wait and see what happened outside the Hosue.



Diane said Elozonam is someone that’s unforgiving. Diane said Ike always chooses Mercy but Elozonam allowed people mess his head. 

Elozonam said it’s ironic that Diane said he’s unforgiving. Elozonam said Diane made him feel like a second/third choice every time. That they were a lot of people in the ranking before him while in the house and there was also the person on the outside. Elozonam said Diane had options and she didn’t seem to care about him. Elozonam said he didn’t feel like Diane always chose him and they always had altercations. He said he was always there for Diane. He said he really liked Diane. Mercy cut in asked why Elozonam said “liked” instead of “like”. He said he treated Diane like a lady but Diane kept cutting him off.



Elozonam said things happened after they got out of the house but he wasn’t going to say it on set. Ike cut in and said one of the Diane’s option should be called “Chair”. Ike said he really liked Elozonam and Diane and shipped them together in the house. He said Diane was complicated but in a good way. 

Elozonam said he was going to talk about what really happened to them outside the house and Diane said she was going to drag him if he spoke.

Ebuka asked about the role Mawuli played in all of this and Diane walked out of set angrily.  BY BV PELUMI
