Evicted Big Brother Naija‘s housemate, Damilola, has clarified misconceptions about her personality during her time in the house.
In an interview on Outsyd by Pulse, Damilola explained that she is bold and firm, not quarrelsome, and that her personality didn’t go over well in the house, leading to her eviction.
“I’m just very bold; it’s not me being quarrelsome, I’m just bold. I would say that I’m really firm or I have a firm personality so I’m not quarrelsome.”
“How do you think that fared for you in the house?” asked the host. “It didn’t go well; that’s why I’m out,” she retorted.
Damilola stated that her behaviour in the house was genuine and not a strategy, citing her self-proclaimed hotheadedness and craziness before entering the house.
Dami was also asked: “Was it a strategy or was it just you being you?” to which she responded, “Before I went into the house, I already said that I was hotheaded and that I’m a crazy person. So if the outside world didn’t see that I was being natural, then it is what it is.”
According to her, she felt misunderstood by housemates, who didn’t see her sweet and selfless side.

“Very much so. Again, I am a firm person, so as much as it seemed to be that I am firm, bold or quarrelsome, as some people would say, I’m also a very sweet person.”
Damilola emphasised her desire for things to work out for everyone and her willingness to connect with people, despite facing unnecessary meanness from some.
“When you get close to me, you know that because I just want things to work out fine for everybody. I’m selfless and I just wanted to connect with people and some people were just being unnecessarily mean, but then it is what it is,” she explained.
