Actress Nkechi Blessing has issued an apology to Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner Imisi following backlash over a question she asked during the reality star’s 24th birthday party. The event, attended by numerous celebrities including Eddie Watson, Bisola Aiyeola, Mercy Eke, Brodashaggi, and others, became the centre of controversy after Nkechi Blessing inquired whether Imisi would ever forgive and reconcile with her mother, referencing the star’s strained maternal relationship.
The question sparked widespread criticism on social media, with many deeming it insensitive and inappropriate. In response, Nkechi Blessing released a video message expressing regret, stating: “I sincerely want to apologise to anybody who got offended by the question I asked Imisi a couple of hours ago at her party. If you find my question offensive, I am sorry. Find a place in your heart to forgive me. Whoever is dragging me, fighting me, abusing me, please don’t be offended.”
She clarified that her intentions were not to create controversy or seek clout, emphasizing that her question was asked without malice.
The incident ties into public tensions surrounding Imisi’s relationship with her mother, who had previously claimed that her daughter had abandoned her following her BBNaija victory. Imisi, however, has repeatedly stated that she prioritizes her family and is actively taking care of her mother.
Nkechi Blessing’s apology reflects an effort to address the backlash and restore civility after the incident became a trending topic online, highlighting the sensitivity surrounding personal family matters in the public eye.
