Big Brother, BBNaija
host, Ebuka, has opened up on Tacha’s disqualification from the ‘pepper dem’
reality show.
Recalls that Tacha was
disqualified following a violence that broke out between herself and
arch-rival, Mercy, on Friday, 27th September.
Her disqualification
sparked uproars with so many throwing cash gift at her.
But speaking on
Tacha’s disqualification, Ebuka in an interview with Beat FM, said the
self-acclaimed ‘Portharcourt first daughter was bound to be disqualified, even
before she pulled Mercy’s hair.
According to him, when
Tacha pushed and shoved Mercy, her disqualification was already done.
He said, ”When Tacha
shoved and pushed Mercy, I think that was when it was done, even before the
hair-pulling.
” I am talking about
the fight that started at the kitchen. Big Brother had called them to the
kitchen to simmer down the situation, but the fight got even worse.
”So way before the
hair was pulled, there was already contact. With violence like that, it is hard
to say, because Big Brother is very clear on that. You don’t put your hands on
someone. If you allow a shove and push, tomorrow it becomes a punch.”
When asked why Mercy
was not disqualified, Ebuka said, ”I don’t know. Like I said, I don’t make these
decisions. But what Mercy did was flip her hair, which you could see was
contact, but there are other sides to it.
”Like was it
intentional? I don’t know. Was it physically going to harm her? I don’t know
either.
”I don’t know what the
reason was for not disqualifying Mercy as well but she got two strikes. I guess
that’s what they felt the weight of what she did carried.”
