Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Maria Chike has opened up on facing spiritual challenges after leaving the show.
The reality TV star revealed in an interview with The Cable that she encountered various spiritual obstacles that drew her closer to God. Chike, who was raised in a Christian home, stated that her religion was put to the test after she left Big Brother Naija.
“Since coming out of Big Brother, there have been a lot of spiritual struggles or challenges, and that just made me get closer to my faith and obviously to God,” she stated.
Maria stated that comparing oneself to others can lead to failure, and it’s crucial to work at one’s own pace and ignore others’ progress.
