Big Brother Naija 2018 star, Rico Swavey has shared an interesting story of how he helped BBNaija season 5 contestant, Nengi to become a housemate.

Rico in a recent post revealed how Nengi sent him a DM in 2018, supposedly after the 2018 edition ended and she asked for his help with regards to auditioning for BBNaija.

He also said that ever since that DM, Nengi has been his mentee and he’s happy that although she did not make it into the house in 2019, she became a lucky pick in 2020.

The reality TV star also declared his support for her.

“In 2018 a fan sent me a DM on Instagram telling me she will like to audition for #BBNaija

“Since then I have been mentoring her

“She tried in 2019 but wasn’t picked.

“This year she succeeded…. I’m going to support her till the end. That fan is NENGI,” he wrote.
