Angel and Sammie who were very close while in the house parted ways after he slut shamed her for frolicking with other male housemates.
However, the two reconciled before the reunion and many thought that they had settled their differences.
Well, it seemed it was all for clout as Angel took to Instagram to unfollow Sammie and Emmanuel.
Sammie, who was clearly hurt over the incident, called out Angel for playing with his emotions.
His post reads:
“You can’t hurt me again!
All I ever did was wish you well in private and in public.
“How do you switch up on me calling me negative energy over something we have talked about over & over again?
“We even became closer.
How do u watch something u were part of & get angry with me again!.
How about emotional abuse!
How about manipulation.
“Why do people not see that I was abused?
“ I am really a good person tbh because if I do half of what you did to me to you maybe we will be hearing men are this and that but the person that you were using to catch cruise on top my head played you and I still stood by you because I genuinely like you as a friend!”.

Yul Edochie gives reason for marrying second wife
Second generation thespian, Yul Edochie has explained why he decided to marry a second wife.
In April, Yul stunned everyone when he announced that he had a son from his colleague Judy Austin who is now his second wife.
The actor explained in a 9-minute video why he could not resist tying the knot with his second wife, Judy Austin-Moghalu.
He stated that he could not let Judy go after the impact she made on his life.
His words:
“At this stage in my life, I think it is possible for a man to love two women because two women can contribute differently to the man’s life.
“Someone cannot come into your life and make so much impact and you just cannot let this person go. Of course, a lot of people would say, as a married man, why did you allow a woman to come into your life. I said it is wrong, and I take the blame for that.
“These things happen. Let’s be honest. It happened to me. I realized I just could not let this wonderful woman leave my life.
“These are very wonderful women in their own rights. They bring different things to the table. You can actually love two women. A man can actually love two women at the same time. I thought it was not possible, but now I realize it is possible.”

Toke Makinwa explains why it is pivotal to stay single
Nigerian media personality, Toke Makinwa has advised that it is appropriate to remain single and experience peace rather than enduring a bad marriage.
The media personality also slammed the society on their perception about marriage.
She wrote,
“Society encourages that sort of narrative, women are seen as strong by the amount of beating she has to endure till the man is ready to give her peace.
“When they meet the women who stand up for themselves?
“Society labels them as wayward and too opinionated. Who is Society again?
“They automatically think being alone at a certain age means you are miserable.
“Would you not rather be 55 and alone than enduring BS with someone? If that’s the definition of miserable, which one will you rather be?”
