Big Brother Naija ‘shine ya eyes’ housemate, Maria Chike Benjamin has revealed that she has faced a lot of spiritual struggles since leaving the hit reality show.
Maria Chike made this known in an interview with The Cable Lifestyle on Sunday, April 30, 2023.
Maria revealed that she has experienced some spiritual struggles which has drawn her closer to God and strengthened her faith.
Speaking about her faith, Maria expressed how amazing is for her to have God by her side. She stated that she always encourages people to tell God first about their actions.
“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.
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”.
Last year, Maria Chike Benjamin suffered a backlash after dragging renowned man of God, Apostle Selman into her cheating scandal.
Maria queried the man of God about their alleged relationship after she mistakenly took him for Apostle Johnson Suleiman.
Taking to Apostle Joshua Selman’s Twitter page, Maria queried if the man of God was the one people thought she had an affair with.
Maria stated that she didn’t mean to offend him and apologized for any harm her questions would cause him.
“Amen! But I’m sorry man of God, are you the one they allegedly claim I had something with? No offense but myself and my partner just laughed out loud! May God be with you amen. I found it on a retweet please don’t be offended”.
Realizing her mistake, Maria quickly deleted her tweet and wrote, “I stand corrected. My apologies for getting names mixed up/wrong. Find it in your good heart to forgive my innocent tweet. Remain blessed.”
