In the quiet of the Big Brother Naija garden, Dede and Kola had a heart-to-heart that peeled back the layers of their complicated bond. Their conversation, following Dede’s fake eviction and return, was filled with honesty, tension, and the unspoken weight of family expectations.
Kola, ever confident, described himself as “a calm and respectful guy” who people naturally gravitate toward. He admitted his mother might be questioning what he sees in Dede, but after watching closely, she would likely conclude, “Dede likes him a lot.” He even went as far as to say he believes Dede’s brothers would accept him with open arms.
Dede, however, offered a measured response. She believes Kola’s parents would like her as a person but not their relationship. “There are people I like but don’t like who they are to others,” she explained, hinting at her concern that their stint on tv has given his family access to moments they perhaps should not have witnessed.
The two debated whether their families would truly accept them, with Kola unsure about how his sisters would perceive Dede, and Dede stressing that public scrutiny complicated what could have been private.
The conversation also touched on the future. Kola mused about visiting her hometown in Asaba and spoke about a likely trip to Ekiti with some male housemates. He even encouraged her to embrace opportunities as “the face of empowerment” in her state. Dede, cautious but open, replied: “I have no expectations, but I’ll take it if it comes.”
When the subject shifted to life outside the house, Kola asked whether her boyfriend would accept them appearing together at events. He admitted that, in the same shoes, he would not be comfortable. Dede drew her boundary clearly: if opportunities are paid, she won’t decline, but she won’t meet him simply out of boredom.
The heart-to-heart ended on a bittersweet note. Dede hinted at her current relationship, reminding Kola that her “baby” gifted her a camera for Christmas, delivered pointedly to make sure he heard. His reply suggested that such reminders only create “fights for no reason.”
Between affection, doubt, and the shadow of outside relationships, Dede and Kola’s bond remains one of the most talked-about dynamics in the house; a blend of possibility and impossibility, hope and hesitation.
