Two of the BBNaija Season 4 ‘ Pepper Dem’ edition housemates, Mercy Eke, who eventually emerged the winner, and her colleague, Tacha have finally decided to bury the hatchet after years of rift.
In a video that surfaced online recently, the BBNaija 2019 winner and her former housemate were seen sitting next to each other, ironing out issues regarding their prolonged feud.
Tacha and Mercy had an altercation while on the show in 2019 and took the animosity beyond the walls of the BBNaija house, while their fans worsened the issue by constantly calling out each other on social media.

However, during the “Talk With Toke Makinwa”, the ladies admitted to being tired of fighting, blaming the feud on their teeming fans.
In the teaser of the interview, scheduled for release on Friday, Makinwa had asked them how they felt sitting next to each other, despite not being on good terms.
Reacting, Tacha said: “We don’t have to do like what you guys want us to do.”
On her part, Eke blamed fans for fostering enmity among past BBNaija housemates, saying “we’re tired of fighting.”
The 28-year-old BBNaija winner also called out some Nigerians who enjoy seeing celebrities fighting one another.
“Nigerians like people fighting themselves… we’re tired of fighting. These people abeg, if you want to fight, go and fight yourselves,” Mercy said.
Mercy at some point during the interview got emotional and began to shed tears while stressing that Nigerians always want people to be at war with each other.
