    The former Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) housemate, Somadina Anyama has broken his silence following the allegations of physical abuse by Hilda Dirisu, his ex-girlfriend levelled against him.

    TheNewsGuru.com(TNG) recalls that Hilda via her X page accused Soma of physically abusing her in April.

    Hilda alleged that the reality TV star, drugged, hit, tied her  up and instilled fear in her.

    She added that Soma got so violent during their relationship to the point of damaging  her phone.

    She wrote: “Ask Somadina what happened at my house in late April this year—how he drugged me, hit me, tied me up and smashed my phone—knowing he’d instilled fear in me over the years and thought that I wouldn’t speak up one day.”

    “Ask him why he keeps lying to everyone, putting on a two-faced mask of innocence. The list is endless! I’ve kept quiet this long and moved on with my life.”

    Reacting to the allegations, Soma via his Instagram page on Monday, November, 25th denied the allegations, labeling them “false” and “baseless”.

    The reality star added that he holds no resentment towards Hilda despite their failed relationship.

    He said, “I want to clearly state that the accusations being made against me are false. I have never drugged, assaulted, or harmed anyone, and I deeply condemn any form of abuse.

    “These allegations are completely baseless and such actions are contrary to my values and the person I strive to be.

    “I acknowledge that I was once in a relationship with the individual making these claims and like many relationships, ours had its highs and lows and ultimately came to an end.

    “Although the relationship did not work out, I hold no resentment or ill will. My wish has always been for both of us to move forward in peace and pursue happiness in our individual paths.”

    The reality star also through Kelmar Legal, his lawyers, cautioned Hilda to desist from making defamatory statements and false allegations against him.

    He said her statements have exposed him to “public ridicule” and caused him “significant personal and emotional harm”.

    “Our Client unequivocally denies these allegations and asserts that at no point during or after the relationship did he engage in any act of physical violence, coercion, drugging, or abuse toward you or any individual,” the lawsuit reads in part.

    “You are hereby formally put on notice to immediately to issue a public and unequivocal retraction of all defamatory statements and provide a formal written apology within seven days.”

    Soma was a housemate on BBNaija second season in 2017. He made a comeback for the All-Stars edition in 2023.

  • My regret in the Big Brother House- Soma

    Soma who recently clinched a role on the sixth season of MTV’s Shuga said: “Things have been different for me after Big Brother. Things have been a lot easier for me after Big Brother”.

    When asked about his experience in the Big Brother House, he said: “It wasn’t a big deal being in the Big Brother house because I am used to be being alone.

    My experience in the Big Brother House was the best I have ever had in my entire life. It was quite interesting, I wasn’t under any pressure. I was too nice and too much of myself. I should have been more strategic and too nice in the Big Brother House. I never watched Big Brother Naija before going into the house” he told Broadway TV.
