Erica Nlewedim vows never to return to Big Brother Naija

Former Big Brother Naija housemate Erica Nlewedim has stated she will never participate in the reality show again, citing the severe emotional toll caused by years of online criticism. In an interview with Toke Makinwa, Nlewedim explained that while the show significantly improved her financial status, she endured three years of continuous insults that required her to seek professional therapy.

Nlewedim described experiencing anxiety when receiving social media notifications due to the fear of further online harassment. Despite these challenges, she has built a successful career in Nigeria as a Nollywood actress, brand ambassador, and business owner.

In separate recent events, Nlewedim addressed criticism regarding her relationship with her father and reported an issue at Lagos International Airport involving British Airways, claiming her ticket was downgraded from Business Class to Economy and her luggage was seized.
