I Was Once Accused Of Money Laundering – Mercy Eke
Big Brother Naija Season 4 winner, Mercy Eke has narrated how she got herself involved in money laundering despite her good report and hard work.
The reality show star, Mercy Eke, while appearing as a guest in #WithChude, disclosed accusations the media peddled against her and her life after Big Brother Naija.
According to her, the allegations against her were indicative of the stigma that successful women face in Nigeria.
Mercy Eke also said that such thoughts are quite disrespectful because they fail to recognize the efforts, sleepless nights, and hard work that the ladies put in to get to where they are.
“They will just take away all effort and tag it as someone is behind you. I am not saying it is bad to have someone behind, if you have a rich boyfriend, some people’s love language might be taking care of you, buying you nice things, and giving you money.
However, you will still work hard. They said I do money laundering; they have dealt with me in this industry. I came into this industry without no advice, just myself and my team and I started building brand.”
