Big Brother Naija Season 9 winner, Kellyrae, has expressed frustration over the numerous requests for financial assistance from family and friends.
In a recent interview with media personality Hero Daniels, Kellyrae revealed that his generosity has sparked a barrage of appeals.
Kellyrae’s troubles began after he publicly disclosed giving his wife, Kassia, N55 million from his prize money. “I was receiving calls from people close to us… asking for their own share of my prize money,” he said. The reality star pleaded with those seeking financial favors to give him space.
“I will like to say to everyone, I’m not a rich man yet, please. The money is big but things are expensive. Even if it’s egg I want to buy, how many crates of eggs will I buy? Please allow a brother to settle,” Kellyrae urged.
Kellyrae won a cash prize of N60 million and a brand-new car worth N40 million in the ninth edition of the Big Brother Naija reality show. His newfound wealth has brought both blessings and burdens.
Social media users have mixed reactions to Kellyrae’s plight. Some sympathize with his situation, while others criticize his decision to publicly disclose his generosity. As Kellyrae navigates his new reality, one thing is clear: winning the jackpot comes with its own set of challenges.
