Big Brother Naija Season 9 contestant, Nelly, has denied stealing her colleague, Chinwe’s 24 karat gold jewelry.
On Tuesday night, Chinwe accused Nelly of theft after her [Nelly’s] boyfriend, Sooj, found the jewelry purse in her laundry bag and returned it to Chinwe.
In a chat with Kassia on Wednesday morning, Nelly denied stealing it or having any knowledge of how it got to her laundry bag.
She said he would have taken drastic action about the accusation but her boyfriend, Sooj, advised her to confront Chinwe privately.
“I was waiting for that her energy that she used last night this morning. But when she [Chinwe] saw me, she couldn’t say anything,” Nelly said.
“I look am eyeball to eyeball nothing happen, call me armed robber to my face, if me and you no go go house.
“Wetin reach to call me armed robber? Is she mad? Report to Biggie, there’s camera everywhere. They will show what happened.”
The cameras didn’t show how Nelly confronted Chinwe over the accusation. They were only caught rounding up their conversation.
Nelly seemed to be apologising to Chinwe. But it wasn’t clear whether she was apologising over the “stolen” jewelry or another issue.
Nelly: “We are cool, yeah? I’m sorry about it.
Chinwe – “Yeah it’s okay, it’s okay.”
Nelly: We are Cool yeah? I’m sorry about the…
Chinwe: it’s okay, it’s okay Nelly.#BBNaijaS9 #BBNaija pic.twitter.com/sfQUvEarSk
