I’m very proud of myself, and I know that there are a lot of people looking up to me,” she said.

The brand influencer also opened up about her struggles in a family of 6 and the fact that she auditioned four times before she got into the show.

Mercy said; “I auditioned four times before I got into the Big Brother House, but somehow I won the show, and I won the hearts of Nigerians and Africans”, Eke explained.

“I work for everything I own today, maybe I’m not ‘blessed’ enough for people to just give me things for free. I can look back at my journey with pride, in spite of my rough childhood: I grew up in a family of 6, but somehow I was able to complete my tertiary education.
