“The only Big Brother Naija star earning more than me is Ebuka” – DeeOne
DeeOne, a former contestant on Big Brother Naija, asserted that among ex-BBNaija housemates, only the prominent show presenter Ebuka Obi-Uchendu earns more than him from events.
The 2018 Big Brother Naija participant stated in a video shared on his Instagram page that his fellow contestant Tobi Bakre, who is now an actor, earns a similar income to him when working as an anchor or MC.
This declaration came amidst an online dispute with the winner of the 2022 season, Phyna, and Bella Okagbue.
He said;
“Before you wake up this morning, I would have made N3 million. This morning I’m working for Coca-Cola at one of the most prestigious hotels in Lagos.
The only person wey dey collect money for events pass me for Big Brother Nigeria na Ebuka. The next person wey dey close wey dey charge close to me na Tobi Bakre. We no dey use numbers take do am.”
He also used the video to call out other celebrities in the industry who often live fake life and deceive their fans.
He said;
“I have been doing this for years, I just say make clear some people. Your celebrities feed you with fake life, this is the real DeeOne you lots don’t know. Please give me some minutes when I’m done I’ll come back to disturb the online space again.”
