BBNaija Season 10 winner, Imisi Ayanwale‘s mother has finally spoken out, addressing claims that she abandoned her daughter and only resurfaced after she became a star and millionaire.
This comes after rumors circulated suggesting that she left her daughter and only appeared when she gained fame.
In a viral video circulating online, she expressed gratitude to God and Nigerians who supported her. She said:
“I’ve received mercy from God. Thank you so much to all Nigerians. I’m staying with my younger sister in Ajah. Even though some people didn’t want me around, others welcomed me, clothed me, and fed me. I’ve been happy and at peace.”
Reacting to critics who accused her of neglect, she maintained that she chose silence out of wisdom rather than guilt, explaining that staying calm was a deliberate, not a sign of weakness.
Recalling the day of Imisi’s eviction from the Big Brother’s house, she explained that she was informed only hours before.
“I wasn’t told until around 4 p.m. to dress up because Imisi would be leaving the house that day,”
She concluded with a heartfelt plea, urging Nigerians to show compassion. “Let’s stop tearing each other down. Let love lead instead of hate.”
Imisi’s mother’s statement has reignited discussions online, with many sympathizing with her while others continue to question her past.
