Yerins Abraham, one of the evicted Big Brother Naija (Shine Ya Eye edition) housemate, said people who dismissed him as boring, did not know him that well.
According to him, there are other housemates who are also not socially active in the house but people have that perception because he was evicted early.
The reality star who described himself as a polymath said he was a bit withdrawn in the house because he was going through some emotional challenges.
“The major reason people had the perception that I am boring was because I was unfortunate to leave the show so early,” he said in interview with Saturday Beats.
”There were people in the house such as Saskay, JayPaul and Yousef that were not as social as I was in the house. It was just the first week and everyone has the time to adapt to being in the Big Brother Naija house.
”What made me a bit withdrawn in the house was because I was going through some emotional challenges but I brought myself back.
”I was nominated for eviction by the wild cards (Maria and Pere) who probably had some issues with me but never confronted me. People who think I’m boring just did not know me that well.”
Yerins also said fellow contestant Maria is his least favourite housemate in the ongoing reality TV show.
Sharing his opinions on two of the contestants, Whitemoney and Pere, Yerins said, “Both of them are playing the game but Pere is doing it in a way that is not genuine.
“Outside the house, I noticed that he is perceived by people as being fake. We are from the same place (Bayelsa) so I don’t want to think too badly of him.
“He told me that he didn’t nominate me for eviction but I later found out that he did. He keeps proving to people that he is not someone to be trusted.
“As for Whitemoney, he has always been amazing from the first day of the show, and his cooking is great. We talked a lot and he is someone I am rooting for to win the show.”
Yerins was the first housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother Naija Shine Ya Eye edition after staying for two weeks.
Beatrice and Niyi were other housemates evicted the same time.
