Key Points:
- Nelly Mbonu says her friendship with Kellyrae ended due to Kassia’s interference during BBNaija Season 9.

- Kassia defended herself at the reunion, but Nelly insisted the wife was the root cause of the broken bond.
Nelly Opens Up on Broken Friendship
In the latest episode of the Big Brother Naija Season 9 reunion, housemate Nelly Mbonu opened up about her strained relationship with her fellow contestant and husband, Kellyrae.
Nelly made it clear that their once-strong friendship had ended. She blamed Kassia, Kellyrae’s wife, for creating a rift between them while they were still in the BBNaija house.
She revealed, “It never for once felt like me and Kellyrae had issues,” suggesting that the fallout was not between her and him directly.
Kassia Accused of Stirring Trouble
During the intense exchange, Nelly alleged that Kassia lied to her about fellow housemate Onyeka. According to Nelly, Kassia claimed Onyeka said something about her — a claim she later discovered was based on nothing but Kassia’s assumptions.
Nelly explained, “The wife obviously had issues with me in the house because I told Onyeka you said something that you told me Onyeka told you. That thing you told me, you were so confident that Onyeka told you that Onyeka told you that. You never told me that it was your instincts.”
Kassia quickly jumped in to defend herself. “I said two things. Onyeka said the first one, the second one was my instincts. Maybe you didn’t understand,” she responded.
Reunion Sparks Heated Exchange
The conversation became tense when the reunion host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, asked Nelly when she noticed the change in Kellyrae’s behaviour. She bluntly said, “Obviously, it’s the wife.”
Kassia challenged the statement, asking why Nelly stopped talking to Kellyrae first. But Nelly was quick to silence her, saying, “Can you shut up and let me speak?”
This fiery moment made it clear that the wounds from the show still linger, especially for Nelly, who believes her friendship was sacrificed because of Kassia’s actions.
