The former contestant on the BBNaija show, Maria Chike reveals how she battled spiritual challenges following her participation in the reality show. In an interview with The Cable, the actress disclosed that she faced several spiritual challenges that brought her closer to God. Chike, who was raised in a Christian household, revealed that her faith was tested after leaving the Big Brother Naija house.
“Since coming out of Big Brother, there have been a lot of spiritual struggles or challenges, and that just made me get closer to my faith and obviously to God,” she stated. She emphasized the significance of having a strong support system and a solid foundation in faith to overcome life’s obstacles. Maria stated that comparing oneself to others can lead to failure, and it’s crucial to work at one’s own pace and ignore others’ progress. “Having God by your side is also amazing, and I always encourage people, no matter what they do, whether it’s good, bad, or evil in the eyes of other people, to always tell God first, and it helps you feel better,” she added. The reality star stressed the importance of having friends who can offer advice and help overcome challenges. She admitted that she has only a few close friends but is grateful for their love, encouragement, and advice, which she combines with prayer.
