Evicted Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Season 9 housemate, Toyosi, has labeled her former partner on the show, Damilola, as “selfish.” The pair, collectively known as Tami, were the first to be evicted from the popular reality show this season, following a tense voting process that left them in the bottom four.
Toyosi voiced her frustrations during an episode of ‘Hero’s Therapy,’ a candid talk show hosted by media personality Hero Daniels, where both ex-housemates had the opportunity to express their feelings openly.
Reflecting on their time in the Big Brother house, Toyosi accused Dami of being overly focused on her own needs and emotions, often at the expense of their partnership. “It has always been about you, you wanting me to do something, you don’t want to pursue your relationship with somebody because of me,” Toyosi said during the interview.
She continued, “The whole time, I don’t think Dami has thought about how I’ve felt or how I really feel. It has just been about her feelings. Dami has just done things for herself. When the whole thing [love triangle with Topher] started, she didn’t consider how I would feel about anything. It was her feelings. She thinks, she thinks, she thinks. Which to me is selfish.”
Damilola, visibly taken aback by the accusations, responded by suggesting that they both take some time apart. “I think we should just have a space. I think that’s better,” she replied, hinting at the strain that their partnership had endured during their time on the show.
The duo’s early exit from the BBNaija house came after Big Brother placed all 12 remaining pairs of housemates up for possible eviction following the immunity challenge on Monday night. Ultimately, the viewers’ votes left Damilola and Toyosi as the first casualties, alongside pairs Chekas, The Radicals, and Streeze who also found themselves in the bottom four.
Their eviction has sparked discussions among fans and viewers, with many speculating that the tension between the pair might have contributed to their early departure from the show.
