BBNaija star, Ilebaye, has surprised Nigerians after sharing what she told Ike Onyema immediately she saw him outside the house.
In a recent interview with Chude, Ilebaye candidly discussed her emotions surrounding the incident with Ike in the BBNaija house.
When asked about how she felt in the moment, Ilebaye expressed deep sadness and a sense of unworthiness.
She questioned why she deserved such treatment and wished for better communication. Feeling hurt, she longed for a resolution that didn’t involve her clothes being thrown.
She said; “I felt sad. I felt low. I felt like what did I do to deserve this? Like any human would literally be hurt. Even if I’ve hurt you, I’ve said something bad about you, you should have just come to me and told me Ilebaye, this is bad. You should have just done something that I would know yes, I’m wrong. But not throwing my clothes. I just felt like god, just open the ground, let me just enter inside. Cuz I was literally so so sad. My energy just went so low.”
When questioned about how she coped with intense moments like this in the house, Ilebaye revealed her coping mechanisms.
She shared that she would often retreat to her bed, allowing herself to cry and release her emotions. Sometimes, she sought solace in the privacy of the toilet, where she could freely express her feelings through tears. Prayer also played a role in her recovery process, providing her with comfort and strength.
In her words; “I just go to bed, and sleep, and cry. I either go into the toilet and cry out my mind, or I go to bed, pray, cry, and sleep.”
Despite the challenging experience in the house, Ilebaye and Ike have managed to reconcile outside the house.
Ilebaye revealed that she had a conversation with Ike, addressing the incident directly. Ike offered his sincere apologies, acknowledging his wrongdoing.
Since then, their relationship has improved, and they have been able to engage in friendly conversations.
Ilebaye emphasized that she holds no grudges and is willing to move forward.
She said; “But I and Ike, we are cool now. Once outside the house I talked to him, I asked him about it, and he apologized. I came out and he said “congratulations, I am so sorry for what happened in the house”. We even gist. If I see him, we just talk.”
