Maria Chike rose to fame after her participation in the 2021 season of BBNaija.
Maria Chike, a former Big Brother Naija housemate, recently revealed her spiritual struggles after leaving the reality show.
The actress revealed in an interview with The Cable that she has faced many spiritual challenges that have brought her closer to God. Chike, who grew up in a Christian household, revealed that her faith was put to the test after she left the Big Brother house.
“There have been a lot of spiritual struggles or challenges since coming out of Big Brother, and that just made me get closer to my faith and obviously to God,” she said.
In discussing how she dealt with them, she emphasized the importance of having a strong support system and a solid foundation in faith in order to overcome life’s challenges.
Chike emphasized the importance of having great friends, loved ones, and family to lean on. She went on to say that competition is real, and everyone has their own timeline, so looking at someone else’s success or progress is the first step toward failure. Instead, it’s critical to work at your own pace and tune out what everyone else is doing.
“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 others, to always tell God first, and it helps you feel better,” she added.
The reality star went on to say that it’s important to have friends who can give you advice every day and help you overcome obstacles. We don’t always believe in ourselves, she observed, and if the journey isn’t working or there are potholes along the way, it could be because we don’t have great people around us.
That is why Chike has few friends but is grateful for the few who shower her with love, encouraging words, and advice. She also listens to their advice while praying.
