Following Ilebaye’s amazing win on Big Brother Naija All Stars, fans have accused her of being greedy.
Ilebaye recently got herself in hot water with fans who chastised her for posting her bank account details online immediately after winning a whopping 120 million Naira. The change, which was meant to clarify things so that supporters didn’t transfer money to the wrong account, rapidly sparked a social media firestorm.
Many of her fans and supporters have continued to transfer money to her account since her victory. However, it appears that some people have decided to take advantage of this, posing as ilebaye and claiming to have access to her account details.
Her team had come out to clarify it, expressing to the public that they should refrain from sending money and gifts to any account that is not under Ilebaye’s verified social media handles.
Her team had gone on to share her direct account where direct payment could be made. Her choice to share her bank account details, rather than a comprehensive plan or charitable initiatives, raised eyebrows among fans and followers.
Many fans took to social media platforms to express their disappointment with Ilebaye’s decision.
Some criticized her while others questioned her motives for sharing such personal information publicly. One particular netizen on Twitter known as Emeka Umeh quoted her and reproached her for being greedy.

“We’ve received information about fans planning to send gifts or contributions. Please refrain from sending money to any account that isn’t officially posted on Ilebaye’s verified accounts.
For gifts, please send an email. The only accessible account is the Baye Tribe account (******Providus). We won’t be responsible for any misappropriation of funds. Thank you.”
