Below are some reactions from the lovers’ fans.

“Dear @BBNaija
It has come to our notice that you rarely show Mercy and Ike.
We spend money to subscribe & life stream only to end up watching boring content. This is not the content we signed up for.
Stop this unfair rationing and give #MoreScreenTimeForMercyAndIke
#BBNaija”

“Dear @Ebuka
I hope you are seeing the bias against Mercy and Ike… Since you are on Twitter with us, and you read our tweets..try and tell your people to give our Mercy and Ike more screen time..if not we will scatter this show..#BBNaija #MORESCREENTIMEFORMERCYANDIKE
You only show mercy and Ike well after Saturday night party because you are expecting trouble, so you can disqualify either Ike or give mercy a strike..#BBNaija.#MoreScreenTimeForMercyAndIke”

“#BBNaija
My only wish for today is for hashtag #MoreScreenTimeForMercyAndIke to be the no. 1 trend in Nigeria. It’s about time organisers & sponsors of this show realize that they can’t play games with viewers, we spend money every damn week. They can’t be sabotaging Housemates.”

“Many Ships have broken down in this house but Mercy and Ike have survived #BBNaija #MoreScreenTimeForMercyAndIke”
@officialkikeomo
“Major sponsor @Bet9jaOfficial
is against Ike.
Now we know why Ike was given Second strike.
@Amchizzy we must not take this lightly.
This is very unacceptable.
They must rescind the strike against Ike.

“Cameras cut at awkward angles deliberately avoiding one side of the room whenever Ike and Mercy are there. If you don’t want them on the show, please let them come home so we can rest and give them the money we would have spent voting
