Media personality, Ebuka Obi Uchendu has finally broken his silence following calls for his replacement as host of popular reality TV show, Big Brother Nigeria, BBNaija, by some social media haters.<\/p>\n

The former BBNaija season 1 housemate has been hosting the reality show for three years after the show came back in 2017 and the media personality is popular for his fashion statement in the show.<\/p>\n

However, a Twitter user raised a controversial topic, after he said Ebuka should be replace by Nancy Isime or Frank Edoho<\/a> as BBNaija host since he has \u201ceaten small\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Twitter user wrote:<\/p>\n

\u201cEbuka don eat small, make him allow another person chop! Frank Edoho as BBNaija host for this season won\u2019t be a bad choice tho. Eviction night go choke gan\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This led to a public outrage and backlash, as Nigerians and other fans of the reality show defended Ebuka which led to a Twitter debate.<\/p>\n

Responding to the Twitter debate, Ebuka took to Twitter to tell his fans that he loves them, apparently for defending him against those asking for his replacement.<\/p>\n

\u201dI love you guys \u2764\u201d Ebuka tweeted.<\/p>\n
