Evicted Big Brother Naija housemate, Maria Chike, says she will not have anything to do with Pere outside the show because he is not genuine.
She told Sunday Scoop this when asked about their relationship.
Maria said: “For people who actually watched the show, (they would know that) Pere was the one insisting to be around me. He was always in my space, so if it was a strategy, I would have been the one going to him. You would never see a clip where I was the one constantly trying to be around him. So many times, I told him I had a boyfriend outside the house. I actually went into the show single and it was because of Pere, I said I had a boyfriend because I needed him to understand that we were only going to be friends. I enjoyed our friendship and I loved the attention he gave me.
“However, BBN is over to me. I don’t have to clarify anything with Pere anymore because we already had that conversation in the house. I don’t want to indulge my name and Pere’s name ever in my life. He said different things I didn’t know about. He told some of the guys that I was a no-go-area and that he would look for someone else to have sex with because he knew I won’t yield. That’s not friendship. His motive was to have sex with me but I told him that would never happen. He was someone I could always confide in but he clearly wanted more. When I came out, I saw some video clips of what he said, not just the rumours going round. He even said I was a psycho. Why would I want to continue to be his friend?”
She also maintained that there was no intimacy between her and Pere. She added, “There was no way the camera would not have shown what happened because they are always on us. It’s true the TV doesn’t show everything because they choose certain clips but I assure you, there is no camera that would have caught Pere and I being intimate. Whatever claims he is pushing out there, have nothing to do with me. I would like to clarify that and get my name out of that narrative.”
