Chinwe, a Big Brother Naija ‘No Loose Guard’ contestant, has denied ever saying she sponsored her lover, Zion, for the show.
According to Gistlover, the two fell out on Thursday when Chinwe accused Zion of not backing her during her battle with fellow housemates Onyeka and Chizoba.
During a talk with DJ Flo on Thursday, Chinwe claimed to have financed their show entry. She also expressed guilt for attending the performance with Zion instead of her best friend.
However, at the eviction show on Sunday night, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu questioned Chinwe’s statement about funding her lover Zion for the show.
“Why did you say you sponsored Zion to the house?” the host asked.
In response, Chinwe denied ever saying such, explaining that she simply meant she was the source of encouragement for Zion since he wasn’t excited about coming to Biggie’s house.

Burna Boy expressed dissatisfaction and criticised the contest after Mia le Roux, a lady of European ethnicity, was crowned the new Miss South Africa.
Burna Boy’s remarks come after the pageant had already been plagued by controversy over previous finalist Chidimma Adetshina, who was forced to resign owing to citizenship issues.
Many social media users, notably Burna Boy, believed that the pageant squandered an opportunity to highlight African beauty and culture.
Burna Boy’s criticism of the Miss South Africa organisers and winners generated a heated debate over representation, identity, and the significance of promoting African culture.
