In a dramatic turn of events on Big Brother Naija Season 9, Anita Ukah’s social media handler has stirred controversy by making disparaging comments about fellow housemates Kellyrae and Topher. The offensive remarks were posted on X (formerly known as Twitter) during the Sunday live eviction show, leading to a wave of backlash from fans.
The handler’s post about Kellyrae, who is a popular housemate with strong winning potential, claimed that Kellyrae is “floating in the house” and questioned what keeps him afloat. The post was quickly deleted, but not before it garnered significant attention.
In a separate post, the handler criticized Topher, stating, “It’s not about family or money, it’s about packaging. Money cannot buy class. That boy no get class abeg. He can’t even communicate fluently without fidgeting.” This remark sparked a heated response from Topher’s supporters, who defended his character and questioned the handler’s judgement.
The situation is particularly ironic given Topher’s romantic relationship with Anita Ukah, which she has described as being “beyond the talking stage” and to be defined further outside the house. Fans were shocked to see Anita’s handler making such negative comments about Topher, especially considering their on-screen relationship.
The controversy unfolded during a live show segment where host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu asked Topher several questions, adding to the drama of the evening. The posts and subsequent backlash have heightened tensions and fueled ongoing discussions among BBNaija fans.
