Ike Onyema 'Forgives' Maria Chike Following Childbirth

BBNaija All Stars former housemate Ike Onyema has taken to his verified X account to extend forgiveness to fellow reality TV star Maria Chike Benjamin as she welcomes her first child.

Ike and Maria had a heated exchange on social media last month.

This disagreement stemmed from Maria’s support for Mercy Eke, who made it to the BBN All Stars final.

On the show, Ike had vowed to prevent Mercy from reaching the finals or winning the competition, citing past grievances from the Pepper Dem season.

Maria, reacting to Ike’s statement, tagged him in a post and declared that Mercy Eke was now a finalist with a 99% chance of winning the show.

Their exchange escalated, with Ike using strong language in response to Maria’s comment.

However, following Mercy Eke’s loss in the competition to the winner, Ilebaye, and Maria’s announcement of her first child, Ike Onyema has chosen to bury the hatchet.

In a recent post, Ike expressed his forgiveness for Maria and offered her words of encouragement to move forward and avoid repeating past conflicts.

“Good morning @MariaChike I forgive you. I understand that Peace is not only possible, it is inevitable. Go and sin no more,” he wrote.
