BBNaija Season 10: Mensan Sheds Tears Over Family Pressures
During a heartfelt diary session with Biggie, BBNaija Season 10 housemate Mensan became visibly emotional, revealing the emotional burdens and responsibilities he carries for his family.
What Happened
While speaking to Big Brother on Thursday, July 31, 2025, Mensan was overcome with tears as he opened up about the intense pressure to be his family’s pillar.
He said with genuine emotion:
“I have always wanted a father figure in my life. I am not just here for myself… I just want to get to a point where I am the one that can carry the family like they want me to.”
Biggie’s Comfort
In a reassuring response, Biggie offered words of encouragement:
“Wipe your tears because diamonds are unbreakable.”
Language & Connection Challenges
Mensan also shared feeling self-conscious speaking English with his male housemates, commenting semi-humorously:
Social Media & Public Reaction
His diary-room breakdown caught social-media attention almost instantly. Comments ranged from critical to sympathetic:
@Beryl: “Imisi vs Mensan vs Kulture, same strategy”
@lolo: “They are about to piss me off with those tears”
@mhiz OGO: “I am crying and laughing at the same time, this guy is a handful”
And others tweeting things like “This crying is irritating” and accusing him of playing the ‘pity card’.
Bigger Context Inside the House
This is not the first time emotions have run high in the BBNaija house this season. Earlier incidents between Mensan and fellow contestant Kaybobo—including accusations of bullying and disrespect toward Mensan’s mother—have added tension and contributed to recent tears.
