In a recent interview with @echooroom_, CeeC said that joining the reality show was never about chasing celebrity status or resuming her law career, but simply to explore the experience.

“For me, I just wanted to go into the house, experience it, and take whatever lessons I could. I wasn’t even willing to go back to practicing law,” she explained.

Stepping out of the house, she faced an unexpected wave of public attention. “When we came out, it was like, ‘What now? Celebrity.’ I was meeting people I used to watch on TV—it was so different. I’m grateful I had the right people around me to help manage the fame and everything that came with it,” CeeC added.

Despite her growth, the media personality admitted that one of her biggest challenges has been being constantly identified primarily as a “BBNaija star.”

“I don’t know if there will ever be a time when I can be seen as more than a BBNaija star. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing because the platform gave us so much,” she said.

CeeC also noted that online audiences often prioritise the Big Brother identity of personalities over their current achievements.

“If you look at Instagram blogs, the first thing they’ll say about someone like Teddy is ‘Big Brother,’ even though this is what he does now. Same for me—it’s still BBNaija. But this is my life today. We keep moving forward.”
