@Fuomatic \u201cEmenike contributed to what made mercy step up her game in Life. I don\u2019t have anything to say to Emenike but thumbs down.\u201d<\/p>\n
@urbanculture16 \u201cOh I\u2019m just getting the gist of ex-Footballer Emmanuel Emenike dating Mercy of BBNaija right before he got married and it makes me like her more. She will come out smiling with N60,000,000.\u201d<\/p>\n
@Heywhyhoney \u201cEmenike obviously has a type. The girl and Mercy too resemble.\u201d<\/p>\n
@Ifeomabesty \u201cMercy settled for Ike since she couldn\u2019t get the whole Emenike, half bread is better than none.\u201d<\/p>\n
@KVng_Nilla \u201cEmenike really did Mercy dirty. Men will really embarrass you.\u201d<\/p>\n
@9jacrib, \u201cMercy thanks for telling us you once dated Emenike. But I bet you if he was not famous you wouldn\u2019t have talked about it neither would you have dated him. I\u2019m sure you went for the money and the guy was fast to know what you represent and hence decided to allow you date yourself while he moved on.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
