Mercy Eke Faces Possible Disqualification from BBNaija All Stars
Mercy Eke Faces Possible Disqualification from BBNaija All Stars for repeatedly breaking the house rules on microphone usage.
Mercy Eke has received her first strike for repeatedly breaking the house rules on microphone usage. This puts her at risk of being disqualified from the show if she receives another strike.
According to the house rule book, all housemates are to wear their microphones at all times and avoid whispering or having silent conversations. The rule states that persistent or deliberate breaches can lead to severe consequences, including strikes or expulsion from the house.
Big Brother issued the strike to Mercy Eke after warning other housemates, Pere and Neo, for engaging in silent conversations. Mercy Eke, who was the former Head of House (HoH), had been violating the microphone rule on several occasions, despite prior warnings.
Mercy Eke is not the first housemate to face disciplinary actions in this season of BBNaija All Stars. Ilebaye has previously accumulated two strikes, while Ceec and Ike each received one strike before their eventual eviction. Soma also received a strike for harassing Angel and making an offensive gesture toward the camera.
Mercy Eke won the fourth season of BBNaija in 2019 and returned to the show as part of the All Stars edition, which features former contestants from previous seasons. She is one of the most popular and influential housemates in the show, with a large fan base and several endorsement deals.
The strike has sparked reactions from fans and viewers of the show, who expressed their opinions on social media. Some supported Mercy Eke and urged her to be more careful, while others criticized her for being careless and disrespectful of the rules. Some also speculated on how the strike would affect her chances of winning the show.
The BBNaija All Stars show is a spin-off of the original BBNaija show, which aims to provide entertainment and excitement for viewers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The show features 20 former housemates who compete for a grand prize of N100 million and other rewards. The show is expected to end on October 3, 2023
