Winner of the ‘Pepper Dem’ edition of BBNaija Season 4, Mercy Eke has pledged to work harder even as she claimed no man is responsible for her success.
The reality star made the statement in a viral video uploaded to her YouTube channel, where she was quoted as saying that “In this part of the world, people believe a man is behind the success of a woman, whether she is married or single.

I work hard for everything I own today. When people say a man is behind these things, I find it appalling. However, it does not get to me anymore because what else would one say? It only shows that my success is visible.”
According to the Imo State-born celebrity, she owed nobody any apology or explanation on why she broke up with her ex.
Responding to a fan who asked about the state of her relationship with Ike Onyema, she replied, “Break up happened. We are done. That ship sank a long time ago. I am in a happy place and he is good as well. Stop flooding my timeline with this silly question; we are over. So, let’s just keep it moving.”
Eke further declared that the fear of failure makes her stronger.
“My biggest fear in life is a failure. I don’t want to fail and go back to the streets. I don’t want to roast corn anymore. I just want to keep doing what I know how to do best. God has blessed me. The fear of failure makes me stronger. I want to be a better person. I want today to be better than yesterday. That is why no matter what is thrown at me, I would never stop growing. I would never stop establishing myself and I would never stop dreaming,”
