- Beverly Osu revealed that she now sees her non-victory in the big brother naija Africa reality show as a blessing in disguise and expressed relief that she did not win the competition at the time.
- She also noted that her mother did not want her to win the cash prize in fear of the cash prize leading her astray.
Nigerian actress Beverly Osu has spoken about her time as a housemate on the Big Brother Africa season 8 in 2013.
In an interview with HIPTV, Beverly Osu discussed her career path and how her experience on the show impacted her life.
When asked about her unexpected eviction, Beverly revealed that she now views not winning the competition as a blessing in disguise.
She expressed relief and humorously noted that her mother had concerns about the potential negative impact of winning the cash prize on her life.
Beverly Osu acknowledged that she may not have had the maturity to manage the prize money effectively at the time and is grateful for how her life and career have evolved since then.
She emphasized that she has made more than the prize money and is now using her experiences to make a positive impact in her life.
The host asked: “You were never up for evictions in the reality TV show; did you think that your eviction was evil?”
She said: “I’m happy I didn’t win now because there was nothing I was going to do then that was going to make me win. If the fans were praying for me to win, the woman who birthed me was praying to God that ‘If this child is going to win this money and go astray, because she has gone astray before,. If she is going to win this money and go astray, God please don’t give it to her.’”
“God’s timing is the best and we are happy that now we have made more than that money. If I had the money then, I probably would not have known what to do with it then. I didn’t have the experience to make it impactful in my life so yeah, so far I’m winning in life now”.
