BBNaija taught me patience and tolerance – Pere

Pere Egbi, a housemate in the sixth season of the Big Brother Naija themed “Shine ya eye”  stated that the BBNaija show has taught him patience and tolerance.

The 36-year-old US ex-military official stated this on Monday, day 37 of the show while talking to the rest of the housemates about his experience in the house.

According to him, he has learnt how to be patient and tolerant in the Big Brother house, adding that the house changed him a lot.

Pere said, “This house has positively impacted me. I’ve learnt a lot of patience and a lot of tolerance because it’s not easy living with people who are different from you; entirely different.

“People are different from each other and you look at everyone else, not the way you actually see yourself. In order to live peaceably with everyone, you’ll have to step out of yourself.

“There are times I’ve been pushed, as you guys know. But over time, I’ve learnt patience; I was never that way.

“I’ve learnt to be more tolerant. I’ve learnt to give people a lot of room for error. That way, you don’t necessarily get hurt when people step on your toes. I expect it to happen. It has changed me that much.”

Pere who is a 35 years old Realtor from Delta State  describes himself as “a spontaneous, adventurous person.” Born in Warri, Delta State, Pere was raised by a single mother and is the firstborn of two children

Pere is a qualified nurse and served in the United States Military for six years, before coming back to Nigeria to pursue a career in real estate. This vibrant 35-year-old is also a part-time actor and model.

He is attracted to things of high value and is motivated by his past. As an empath, he hopes to use his experiences with pain to help heal others. He enjoys dancing, playing games, writing, bar-hopping, and water rafting.

Although 35-year-old realtor Pere admits he is a natural-born drama king, he insists he will stay away from fights in the Big Brother Naija House and will make people laugh instead.
