Dede has drawn a clear line on her bond with Kola. She says she likes him, yet not enough to date him. The talk came during a fresh post-show chat. Host Ebuka pressed for a plain, direct answer.

“How much do you like Kola?” Ebuka asked at once. Dede replied with care, then cut to the point. “Is it enough for this thing? No it’s not,” she said. “But I do like him. I like him as a person.”
She praised his traits again with warm words. “He’s amazing,” she added in a calm tone. “I would always sing his praise, regardless of what it is.” She also said she once thought he looked “fragile”. She felt he cared and meant well most times.
Dede clarifies feelings on-screen
The talk was frank, short, and free of fuss. She stressed that her no did not mean dislike. It meant the bond lacked the depth she would need. “It was not enough for what we thought it was,” she said.
At times, Dede felt worn out by the buzz. “Sometimes I will be like I am tired,” she said. “Do whatever you want to do, let’s wrap it up.” She noted the tone was never harsh or rude. “Kola okaayyyy,” she added with a small, playful sigh.
