BBNaija Season 8 All-Stars edition housemate Mercy Eke broke down in tears during her diary session, requesting a voluntary exit from the show.

The emotional outburst followed a heated argument with fellow housemate Alex, sparked by a game of Guinness.

While Mercy Eke's anger subsided quickly, Alex continued to bad-mouth her throughout the house, escalating the conflict.

This led Mercy Eke to consider leaving the show altogether, leaving her housemates and viewers shocked and concerned.

In a post-fight conversation, Alex revealed that her outburst was spurred by Mercy Eke's statement that she tends to get upset and sulky when she loses a game or fails to win something.

The next day, during a diary session, Mercy Eke expressed that Alex's harsh words during their fight - telling her to "go and die" - had deeply affected her and made her feel isolated and alone.
