BBNaija’s Chichi reportedly returns to pole dancing
In a surprising twist, Big Brother Naija reality star Chichi has set the internet ablaze after being spotted pole dancing at a nightclub.
The viral video, which surfaced online, shows the former housemate effortlessly climbing and twirling on the pole, a move that has reignited conversations about her journey and choices post-BBN.
Chichi’s return to exotic dance comes as a shock to many, as it contrasts her earlier declaration in March 2024 to retire from the profession.
Following her stint in the Big Brother Naija house, the reality star had publicly vowed to leave pole dancing behind, reflecting on her past as a stripper and her rise to fame.
The latest video, however, proves that Chichi may not have entirely closed that chapter of her life, leaving fans intrigued and divided over her bold and unapologetic move.
