Reality star, Erica Nlewedim, has clapped back at a critic for ‘undermining her hard work’. This happened when on Twitter when the critic stated that movie producers are using her for clout.
Initially, a Twitter user @theonlyalabi_ tweeted asking Twitter users to choose between “Bimbo Ademoye vs Erica Nlewedim.”
The critic, @essenceflames, replied, “This is really an insult to Bimbo. Bimbo literally built herself from the ground up as an actress. Erica went for Big Brother and Producers are using her for clout.”
Responding to this, Erica said,
“Don’t you ever in your life undermine my hard work!I did it all! Free work, low/mid budget films, and went to Filmschool to improve. Do you know how many talented actors are still unknown because the right people don’t know them? I should have sat at home waiting for magic instead of BBN?”
She continued,
“Not a lot of people are worth the response but I have to set things straight since there’s this ignorance concerning BBN talented actors! It’s a platform to show what you have been doing before to a larger audience! I don’t only work hard, I work smart!”
Erica is a former housemate of Big Brother Naija season 5. Before the show, she had featured in some movies including nollywood movie, Hire a man. Since her exit from the show, she has undoubtedly remained one of the most popular and successful housemates of the lockdown season.
