Former Big Brother Naija, BBNaija season 7 roommate Chichi recounts how her “fake” roommate and her love interest Deji from Level Up House manipulated her into thinking she was mentally ill.
Chichi, speaking at Day 3 of the “Big Brother Naga” season seven reunion that aired on Wednesday, said Deji would intentionally provoke her, and when she started to get angry, he would tell her that she was overreacting and needed to see a therapist.
She recalled Dej once recording her when she was complaining bitterly about his unruly behavior towards her.
The reality star said Dekki was fine when he was outside, but acted irrational when they were alone in the room.
Kiki said she succumbed to Dej’s manipulation at one point, as she began to think she might be mentally ill, causing her to overreact.
She said: “At some point, he [Deji] Will tell me you need a psychologist. At one point, I started to believe in this idea.i think i have one [mental] The problem was because of the way I was treated.
“I was manipulated into thinking there was something wrong with me. He would do bad things to me outside and when we came in I told him Dej, I think you did this to me. Dej would tell me I was thinking too much. You A therapist is needed.
“Ebuka, I’m open to the idea. I’m starting to think I need a therapist because I feel like I’m overreacting. My pain is that when we have problems in SA, none of the roommates come to me and ask me, Except Amaka. She didn’t even ask me. She just said, ‘Hope you’re ok? Don’t worry, you’ll be ok.’ I said, thank you very much for coming.
“Every roommate goes to him [Deji]. No one came to me and said, ‘Chichi, are you okay? ‘”
After the reality show, Kiki said, Deki still sneaked back into his hotel room “every night like a male whore.”
She said he would fold and clean her laundry just to stay overnight at her place.
Host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu asked if Deji, who joined via Skype, was in Chichi’s hotel room every night, as she claimed.
Dej responded: “Abuka, let me tell you something, I’m not in her hotel room every night. But that’s the way it is, I met you in the house and I know your story. Come out of the house, everything that happens on stage, we see; this girl really has no one on stage with her.
“It’s a different situation for each of us. Do you want her out of the house and I’m not supposed to be with her emotionally and all this shit? Ask her first why I’m in her hotel room. I just Feel like this is a situation where you’re trying to turn things around. You come out of the house and you know you need me and I’m there for you every moment you need me. I won’t say I did this for you, I do it for you Did that or all of that. It’s just not my style.”
