According to the report, Venita provoked outrage after claiming on the reality show that “Tiv men give their wives to visitors for entertainment purposes.”
Mdzough U Tiv, Lagos State Branch, and Hon. Dickson Tarkighir, member of the House of Representatives for Makurdi/Guma Federal Constituency of Benue State, had threatened Venita with legal action.
In a post-eviction interview with media personality Hero Daniels, the mother of two expressed guilt for her “careless” remark, particularly because both of her kids are Tiv.

She said, “The statement I made about Tiv people got twisted a bit. My daughters are actually Tiv. There’s no way I will be trying to make any kind of malicious or slanderous comment towards their people. Actually, in my season we did a whole play around the Tor Tiv coronation which I participated in and was super excited about.
“So, you know, sometimes you will say something maybe it is a little bit carelessly. And I think it got really misconstrued. And for those that are offended by it, I’m regretful about that.”
