BBNaija’s Onyeka Chigbo was overwhelmed after fans gifted her a brand-new Mercedes-Benz car.
The surprise gesture drew mixed reactions as people questioned fan gifting trends and celebrity culture.
Onyeka Chigbo, a former Big Brother Naija housemate and practicing lawyer, was recently swept off her feet after receiving an unexpected and extravagant gift from her loyal fanbase, known as the “Onyxtars.”
In a video that has quickly gone viral across social media, Onyeka is seen blindfolded and guided to a surprise location. Upon removing the blindfold, she was met with the sight of a brand-new Mercedes-Benz reportedly worth several millions of naira. Visibly stunned and emotional, Onyeka broke into joyful excitement as she admired the luxury vehicle gifted to her by her devoted fans.
The generous gesture has once again reignited discussions around the growing trend of BBNaija fans showering their favorite ex-housemates with lavish gifts such as cars, houses, and large cash sums. While many praised the Onyxtars for their display of love and loyalty, others raised questions about the sustainability and intent behind these extravagant fan-sponsored gestures.
This heartwarming moment comes just weeks after Onyeka made headlines during the BBNaija reunion show, where she was involved in a tense exchange with fellow housemate Wanni. The altercation stemmed from Wanni’s accusation that Onyeka was jealous of Ozee’s closeness with Victoria, a claim Onyeka firmly denied, despite ongoing fan speculation about a possible romantic triangle.
As the surprise car gift continues to trend online, reactions remain mixed. While some social media users commend Onyeka’s fanbase for their unwavering support, others revisit the debate on BBNaija’s celebrity gift culture and whether it promotes genuine appreciation or unhealthy idolization. Regardless, Onyeka’s heartfelt gratitude and the sheer joy captured in the video have made the moment one of the most talked-about highlights in recent fan-celebrity interactions.
