Big Brother Naija Season 9 contestant opens up on reasons for being single for the past year.
In a conversation with fellow housemate Fairme, Handi explained that she is still recovering from the emotional trauma of her previous relationship.
Handi described her last relationship as toxic, citing the significant stress it caused her.
“I have been single for like a year now. The last relationship was toxic and emotional. He stressed me. I don’t like stress. So now, I’m trying to find myself,” she said.
During the Sunday eviction, Handi blasted viewers for accusing her of sticking too close to her twin sister Wanni and boyfriend Shaun.
The remarks were made during an interview with the show’s host, Ebuka. During the interview, Ebuka questioned Handi about claims from some viewers suggesting that she follows Wanni and Shaun excessively.
In a response, Handi defended her actions, asserting that her presence around her sister and her sister’s boyfriend is natural and comfortable.
She emphasized that her close association with Wanni and Shaun stems from familial bonds and mutual comfort, not from any ulterior motives.
Handi went on to label those who voiced the criticism as “jealous” and urging them to mind their own business.
She stated that their accusations reflect more about their own feelings than about her actions, and she refused to be drawn into further negativity.
Handi had recently shared a personal experience during the Aquafina Padi of life task.
During the task, she expressed gratitude towards her twin sister, Wanni, for being a constant source of support throughout her life, particularly during her struggle with drug addiction.
