Big Brother Naija Season 6 housemate, Tega Dominic, has said that telling other housemates during the show that she was married was her strategy for the game.
Tega said this during the reunion show, which aired on Thursday night.
The mother of one revealed that she had been separated from her husband since 2020, but maintained that she was still married on the show.
Tega said this as she defended the romantic affair she had with Boma Akpore during the show.
The duo became prominent during the show because of their romantic involvement, coupled with the fact that Tega claimed she was married.
“For a fact, I didn’t go into the show as married. I went in as separated. In all my interviews, I clearly stated it. I went in as separated,” Tega said.
She actually noted that she changed her mind when she came into the show and decided to introduce herself as married.
Tega added, “During our conversations and introductions, I just said, well, I’m married and I have a kid. That was supposed to be a strategy.
“Getting deep into the show, I then discovered that this was doing something great in a bad way to me.”
Speaking of her affair with fellow housemate Boma, Tega said, “To me, everything that was going on between me and Boma was all a cruise.”
