Praise Nelson, a former housemate of the ongoing Big Brother Naija reality TV show, has dismissed a claim by Brighto, an ex-colleague at the ‘Lockdown’ house, that his fiancée is over 60 years.

Brighto, whose real name is Bright Ezekiel Osemudiame, had during a conversation with Kiddwaya, made several claims about the former housemate, including his relationship and personality.

He said;

I know how to make it angry. He will be too pissed that he can even cry, I swear to God. You know he normally brags about ‘My son, my wife’? His wife is close to 60-something years old.

I swear, he told me now. Trust me. I was like what are you doing and we had a conversation. He now said it, that his wife is way older than him.



However, while speaking with Cool FM, Lagos on Wednesday, the 28-year-old dancer quashed Brighto’s claim, noting that he never had such conversation with him.

He stated that he is not married but engaged to a 42-year-old, not over 60-years as claimed by his former housemate.

Reacting to BrightO‘s comment that his fiancée being in her 60s, the 28-year-old father of one said;

I feel like it is his opinion. I remember having a conversation where Lucy mentioned to the whole house that she cannot be in a relationship with a guy that is younger than her so I had to set her straight like look, relationships are really not about age.

My girl is older than me, she is way older than me but then we get the same respect and we respect each other the same way. I don’t ever feel like the age is ever a problem with us. She is 42 years old actually.

Praise proposed to the mother of his son on April 20, 2019, which he announced on his Instagram page.
