ENTERTAINMENTBBNaija All Stars: Doyin vows not to talk to Ilebaye or Venita till she leaves show

 


Big Brother Naija All Stars housemate, Doyinsola David, simply known as Doyin, has vowed never to talk to either her estranged best friend, Ilebaye, or Venita again throughout her stay in the reality show.


She made the vow in a chat with Ike Onyema on Wednesday.


Ike dared her that it would be difficult for her to keep her vow, but she placed a N100,000 bet, insisting that she wouldn’t flout it.


She, however, said she could have a conversation with them if they happened to be on the same team as her for any House tasks but maintained that she would never chit-chat with them again.


Doyin said, “I bet N100k till I leave this House, I will not talk to Ilebaye or Venita. Of course, maybe as a team. Outside that you will never see me chit-chatting with them or trying to do any form of reconciliation.”
