Mercy Eke

Winner of 2019 BBNaija reality show Mercy Eke, says her mother told her she had tried to abort her due to pressure from relatives.
She spoke during the premiere of a joint reality TV show with Ike, her partner, who is also a former BBNaija housemate.
The beautiful show queen said her mother had once thrown herself down from a tree to see if she could get rid of her foetus after her husband’s cousin had questioned why she was up for another child.
“My mom told me that, when she was carrying me, there was this aunt of mine, my dad’s cousin, who came and asked her, ‘Are you still pregnant after all these kids you have?,” Mercy said.
“That really got my mom trying to abort me. My mum told that what she did was when she goes to the farm, she would climb a tree and intentionally fall from there to see if she could get rid of me.
“When she told me that, I had told myself that I had to make it, whatever it took to be somebody. I had to make her proud somehow for what she did for me.”
