Big Brother Naija 10/10 housemate, Dede, has opened up about her struggle with social anxiety.

Dede has been at the centre of many controversies in the house, with some housemates calling her a “snub” for being socially reserved and refusing to hug male housemates.

In a chat with a fellow housemate, Dede opened up about battling social anxiety.

Dede: “Do you have social anxiety?”

Koyin: “No, do you?”

Dede: “Yes, I do.”

Koyin advised her not to worry about being perceived as socially awkward sometimes, stressing that “such is life.”

Dede had previously told Biggie during her first diary session that she’s an introvert and “doesn’t like people.”

She also explained why she refused to hug her fellow housemates, saying she didn’t know them before the show.
