Chichi, a former contestant on the seventh season of Big Brother Naija, has shared her story of how Deji, a fellow housemate and her romantic interest in the Level Up House, deceived her into believing that she was suffering from a mental illness.
During the third day of the Big Brother Naija Season 7 Reunion, Chichi spoke about her relationship with Deji. She revealed that Deji would deliberately provoke her and then dismiss her reactions by suggesting that she needed therapy.
Chichi also recounted an incident where Deji recorded her while she was expressing her frustration with his unruly behavior towards her. According to Chichi, Deji would put on a facade of good behavior in public but act irrationally when they were alone.
She admitted that she eventually fell victim to Deji's manipulations and began to question her own mental health, wondering if she was overreacting.
The former housemate said, “At a point, he [Deji] would tell me, you need a psychologist. At a point, I started buying the idea; I think I have a [mental] problem because of the way I was being treated.
“I was manipulated to think I have a problem. He would do something bad to me outside and when we come in and I’m telling him, Deji, I feel like you are treating me like this. Deji would tell me I’m overthinking it. You would need a therapist.
“Ebuka, I bought that idea. I started feeling I needed a therapist because I was feeling like I was overreacting. My pain was, when we had issues in SA, none of the housemates came to me to ask me, except Amaka. She did not even ask me. She just said, ‘Hope you’re okay? Don’t worry, you will be fine.’ And I said, thank you so much for coming.
“Every housemate went to him [Deji]. Nobody came to me and say, ‘Chichi, are you okay?'”
Chichi revealed that after the reality show, Deji was still sneaking to her hotel room “every night like a male prostitute”.
According to Chichi, Deji would tidy up and organize her clothes just to spend the nights at her residence.
During the show, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the host, questioned Deji, who was participating remotely via Skype, about whether he was indeed present in Chichi's hotel room every night as she had stated.
However, Deji in his response said: “Ebuka, let me tell you something, I wasn’t in her hotel room every night. But this was the situation, I got to know you inside the House, I knew your story. We came out of the House, we all saw what happened on the stage; this girl literally had nobody there with her on stage.
“It was a different situation for everyone of us. Do you expect her to come out of the House and I shouldn’t be there for her emotionally and all of that sh*t? Ask her why I was there in her hotel room in the first place. I just feel like it’s a situation where you are trying to twist the situation. You came out of the House, you knew you needed me, I was there for you at every moment you wanted me around. I’m not going to be saying I did this for you, I did that for you or all of that sh*t. That’s not my vibe.”
