Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Tochi, has told ex-housemates struggling after the reality show to forget their celebrity status and go out to hustle, saying not everyone is destined to become successful through the show.
Tochi gave the advice in a post while speaking to former housemates who are finding life difficult after leaving BBNaija.
“If you’re a Bbnaija ex-housemate and you’re going through a rough time listen, ‘pack up all that I am a celebrity nonsense and lock it inside a box.. come out and hustle oh, if not you go cry pass new born baby oh,’” Tochi wrote.
He said he has stopped defining himself by his time on the reality show and now sees himself as a businessman.
“I have even forgotten I went on that show since 2024, I see myself as a businessman now,” he said.
Tochi said former housemates should also understand that success after the show is not guaranteed for everyone.
“Destiny differs, not everyone is destined to make it from the show, keep your head up and live your truth,” he wrote.
He further urged them to surround themselves with people who would support and encourage them, rather than those who constantly remind them that they are celebrities.
“When people see you let them not see you only as an ex-housemate but also a hustler with values trying to make it,” Tochi added.
