BBNaija: Fans Raise $9,000 For Erica, Target $100,000
Few hours after Erica Ngozi Nlewedim, a housemate in the Big Brother Naija Season 5, was disqualified from the reality show after breaking some of the house rules, her fans have launched a GoFundMe campaign for her.
The fans, known as Elites, started a fundraising campaign for her on a popular platform, GoFundMe, and in lesser than 3 hours after the launch of the campaign, more than $9,000 has been raised.
The organisers were targeting $100,000 to support the disqualified reality show contestant, Erica’s dream.
A description underneath the campaign page reads: “For Erica Nlewedim, the star of BBNaija season 5, Lockdown edition whose journey on the show came to an emotional end – To realize some of her hopes and aspirations.”
A fan who donated $20 said “Because I love ❤️ her. Please accept my token.”; while another who donated $25 commented; “Erica deserves better!!!!!”
However, different reactions have continued to trail her disqualification and the launched Go FundMe campaign.
Typical of Nigerians, there were serious comments, and then, the savage and sarcastic ones too.
