October 18, (THEWILL) – Big Brother Naija Season two winner, Michael Ejeba, aka Efe, says he has not been blacklisted by the show’s organisers, Multichoice Nigeria..
THEWILL recalls that during the show’s Season Six finale, which took place a few weeks ago, several former housemates of the show were present, with some like Laycon, the season five winner, performing. However, Efe, the 2017 winner, who is also a rapper, was noticeably absent.
A popular media personality, Noble Igwe, in a tweet stated that Efe had fallen out of grace with the show organisers after he disrespected a Multichoice boss. According to him, Efe “sat in the car and asked for Oga to come first before he comes out”.
Reacting to this, Efe released a statement on his Instagram page on Monday.
According to him, the claim is false and baseless.
Efe said: “I was brought up in a family and society where respect to a fellow human is highly valued and respect to elders is unquestionable. Unnecessary ego-boosting, protocols, or feeling too much importance have never been attractive to me given my humble background.
“Therefore it is unimaginable for someone to conceive such character from me as a person and create a scenario that never existed. Hence I am clearly stating that the instance (scenario) asserted that is making rounds in the media and public is false and never happened or occurred. This is news to me as it is to you.”
The rapper also maintained that he has “a cordial relationship with Multichoice Nigeria and we are one family”
He continued: “Let me take this opportunity to thank Multichoice Nigeria as an organisation, and her members of staff once again for giving me the platform to showcase my talent as a music artist,” he said. “I don’t take the platform for granted. It is a well-cherished investment.”
Addressing his absence in BBNaija events, Ejeba begged fans who have been anticipating his performance on the show to exercise patience.
