However, in her first diary session in the Big Brother Naija All Stars season, Mercy revealed she was the opposite of a Queen of highlights when she stepped into the Big Brother Naija Pepper Dem house.
Key points from Mercy Eke’s first Diary Session in the BBN All Stars Season
- Mercy Eke grew from a naive little girl to a highlight queen
- Tacha, Laycon, and past housemates not in All Stars season are no longer relevant
- There’s no going back on Ike

She added that she didn’t know what the next day would be but that she kept going. Then as her fans will have it, she won the show.

Her relationship with Ike in the Big Brother Naija All Stars house
Big Brother also asked her which housemate she was most surprised to see in the house.
In answering this question, she touched on her relationship with Ike. Who can forget the love between those two during the Pepper Dem season and even after they left the show?
Mercy Eke answered:
I was most surprised to see Ike. This is because I had a relationship with him, but it ended badly. We broke up. We moved on and even stopped talking. Coming here to see him, I was like, how will I be in the same house with someone I don’t talk to?
I have to condition my mind to accommodate whatever that comes. I didn’t know if it would be good or bad. But we are talking now.
Big Brother further asked her, “Could it be an opportunity to mend any broken bridge?”
Mercy replied with an emphatic “No.” I don’t think there’s any broken bridge to be mended. We have moved on.
