“You played a great game, wear your crown” – Mercy Eke tells Ilebaye

Mercy Eke, the first runner of BBNaija has applauded the winner of the reality show, Ilebaye as she eulogized the good game she played.

Mercy Eke issued her first public statement following her loss at the just-ended Big Brother Naija All Stars program.

On Sunday night, Ilebaye won the All Stars competition, defeating Mercy Eke, Ceec, Pere, Cross, and Adekunle. While many expected Mercy Eke to win, the reality personality emerged as second, with only 23% of the vote to Ilebaye’s 30%.

Mercy Eke, despite her loss, is keeping her head up and has extended a hand of friendship to Ilebaye. She told her to wear her crown, raise her head high, and shine eternally in a message.
