Kola insists he never wanted to date Dede despite BBNaija chase, reunion reveals

Former BBNaija Season 10 housemate Kola said he never intended to date his love interest Dede, despite pursuing her on the show. Speaking in the second episode of the reunion aired Tuesday night, he stated, “I never said I wanted to date Dede.” His friend Bright Morgan claimed he advised Kola to stop, saying, “I told Kola to leave Dede, babe wey like you will not stress you.” Dede explained their friendship turned cold after Kola called her “the other person” in an interview. She recalled meeting at Tacha’s birthday party, where Kola followed her to the bathroom, spoke about the kiss in Biggie’s house, and invited her to his house—claims Kola denied when asked by host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu. The episode aired June 8, 2026, and continues to spark discussion among viewers about authenticity versus entertainment in reality TV. The saga highlights how edited narratives and post-show interactions can reshape perceptions of relationships formed under constant camera surveillance. Does chasing someone on TV reflect genuine interest, or is it often driven by the show’s entertainment demands and editing?
