Former Big Brother Naija Season 9 housemate, Nelly Mbonu, has said that her fellow contestants, Ozee and Ocee Mbadiwe, popularly known as the Mbadiwe Twins, didn’t deserve to be part of the reality show.
In a recent interview with Hip TV, Nelly claimed the twins failed to stand out during their time in the house and that their presence was largely driven by their surname and background.
She alleged that the Mbadiwe name earned them unwarranted respect among other housemates.
“Mbadiwe Twins’ surname made most housemates to be interested in them. They were well respected in the house because of the name. But it wasn’t a thing for me. I don’t care.”
Nelly went on to question their relevance in the game and said she felt they should have exited early in the competition.
“Mbadiwe Twins should have been evicted in the first week. I feel like they were not supposed to be in Big Brother’s house, to be honest. I felt like they were just, I don’t know, I cannot just say what they were doing in the house.”
While she clarified that she had no personal issue with them, she admitted they often got on her nerves.
“I don’t have anything against them but they are just pissing me off. They annoyed me.”
Nelly added that while the twins may have deserved a spot on the show, it shouldn’t have been in the most recent season.
“They merit to be on the show but not season 9.”
