BBNaija’s Ivatar Clears Air on Misjudged Personality, Denies Romance With Kaybobo

|By Oko-Echem Agnes

Former Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate, Ifeyinwa Okafor, popularly known as Ivatar, has broken her silence on misconceptions about her character and life in the house.

Speaking in an exclusive chat with Sunday Scoop, Ivatar revealed that many fans misread her personality based on her tattoos and appearance. She said viewers often expected drama from her, but her true nature is calm and collected.

“People thought I would be dramatic because of my looks, but that’s not who I am. I am intentional, classy, and a mother to an 18-year-old. I can’t be reckless just to satisfy anyone’s expectations,” she explained.

Addressing speculations about a romance with fellow housemate Kaybobo, Ivatar dismissed the claims as fake. She noted that a viral photo suggesting they kissed was digitally altered. “I was shocked when I saw that picture. Kaybobo and I are just friends who bond over shared interests. There is nothing romantic between us,” she clarified.

The tattooed reality star also opened up on her strained friendship with ex-ally Mensan, admitting she may have approached their bond differently. “Maybe I shouldn’t have pulled him into my corner because I thought he was lonely, just like me. We had fun moments, but I believe in boundaries, and I’ll always stick to them,” she added.

Ivatar’s eviction may have cut short her BBNaija journey, but she insists she stayed true to herself despite stereotypes and rumors.
