Ilebaye, otherwise called Genz baddie garnered 30 percent of the votes cast to defeat her closest rival, Mercy Eke, who secured 23 percent of the votes.
On the micro-blogging platform X, Ucheagwu stated his doubts about Ilebaye’s win, suggesting that her victory was driven by sympathy rather than merit.
He drew a comparison between her win and the state of Nigeria on its Independence Day, stressing the prevalence of pity and sympathy over meritocracy as a reflection of the nation’s stunted growth.
He said:
“As Nigeria celebrates her Independence, the winner of #BBNaijaAllStar may be a true reflection of the current state of Nigeria where pity and sympathy prevail against meritocracy. Is she deserving of it, only time will tell.”
