Ex-Big Brother Naija Season 9 housemate, Onyeka, has firmly ruled out any chance of friendship with fellow contestant Victoria, reigniting tension from their time on the show.
The two women, who were once caught in a heated rivalry during the reality TV show, have made it clear that their relationship remains strained. Their clash centred around romantic interest in fellow housemate Ozee Mbadiwe. The love triangle sparked drama and created lasting friction between Onyeka and Victoria throughout the season.
No reconciliation in sight – Onyeka
During the much-anticipated BBNaija reunion show, host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu raised the issue of their fractured relationship and asked both women if they were willing to reconcile. While Victoria appeared open to letting bygones be bygones, Onyeka had a very different response.
Ebuka posed the question directly: “Is the issue between you and Onyeka resolvable?”
Victoria responded calmly: “Right now, I’m indifferent. Let’s do our thing. I’m way past it and I’ve made peace with it.”
However, Onyeka made it clear that there was no chance of reconciliation. Her words were sharp and deliberate:
“I don’t like snakes. Snaky movement is not my vibe. So, I just want to stay on my own.”
Past conflicts still fresh
The rivalry between Onyeka and Victoria began during their stay in the Big Brother house. Both women grew fond of Ozee Mbadiwe, and their mutual interest soon led to visible tension. From subtle jabs to direct confrontations, viewers witnessed the fallout in real time.
Despite attempts by other housemates to mediate, neither Onyeka nor Victoria backed down. Their feud became one of the most talked-about storylines of the season.
The reunion episode, which brought together all the Season 9 housemates, offered a chance for some unresolved issues to be addressed. While a few contestants used the platform to heal old wounds and clear the air, Onyeka was unyielding in her stance on Victoria.
No room for pretend peace
During the reunion, Onyeka went a step further by revealing that she and Victoria had once mutually agreed never to be friends. She said that the agreement still stands, and she has no intention of going back on it.
“We made a vow not to be friends, and I want it to stay that way,” she said firmly.
Her words drew mixed reactions from fans on social media. While some praised her honesty, others felt she was being unnecessarily harsh, especially since Victoria appeared willing to move forward.
Viewers react online
Shortly after the reunion aired, social media platforms lit up with reactions. Some fans supported Onyeka’s decision, stating that it’s better to stay away from people who do not align with your values.
One viewer wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “She has every right to protect her peace. Not everyone deserves a second chance.”
Others, however, felt that her “snake” comment was too strong and could have been avoided.
Another user posted: “She didn’t need to go that far. It’s okay to set boundaries, but words matter too.”
Looking ahead
Neither Onyeka nor Victoria has issued a follow-up statement since the reunion aired, but the two will continue to keep their distance.
As BBNaija fans await more updates from their favourite housemates, the lingering tension between Onyeka and Victoria serves as a reminder that not all reality TV drama ends when the cameras stop rolling.
