Big Brother Naija star, Groovy has finally addressed claims that he exploited relationships to advance in the show.
Recall that throughout his time in the BBNaija house, Groovy was involved in two relationships: the first with Beauty, who was eliminated in the second week, and the second with Phyna, the winner of the season.
Groovy claims that, in contrast to the story that some of his colleagues and fans have spread about him, he was genuinely kind, devoted, and true to himself when he was living in the house.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, he revealed this while stressing that it was incorrect for some of his ex-girlfriends’ fans to say that he tricked the women just because things didn’t work out.
Groovy said;
“I feel there has been a certain perception of me in the public as a result of the relationships I was in while in the house. All those talks about me not being genuine is something I want to clear up, because I actually stayed true to myself. I was caring and loyal. I did not try to deceive anybody. I believed I could win the show, without necessarily having to do any of that.
What is the essence of winning the show if I lost my mantle or damaged anybody in the process? I feel like some things work out and some things don’t work out. Saying that I am not a genuine person because everything did not work out is a wrong narrative about me. I am not what they said I am.”
The musician talked about his interactions with the other housemates during their reunion, describing it as a way for the others to blow off any unfinished business.
He said; “I feel like the reunion was a continuation of what we did in the house, and I actually saw it as an opportunity for people to bury the hatchet, and air out their grievances for one last time, and find mutual understanding.
“There were fun sides to it, and there were also fights. I felt everybody had different experiences. I went there and I said my truth, which is all I always say, because I am a genuine person. I say things as they are, and don’t try to cut corners.”
