These are few strong points why the Imo State University graduate won.
Fierce women support
Being the last woman standing was leverage for Mercy as this came to the fore during the voting. The female folks took it as an opportunity to rally round one of their own and give her a sisterly support. We all know that when women are passionate about a cause, they give their best shot.
Celebrity influence
Have you ever noticed how you seem to be more interested in a commercial advertisement with a celebrity you admire?
Celebrities like Rita Dominic, Mc Galaxy, Anita Joseph , Broda Shaggi, Swanky Jerry and others supported Mercy. This gave her an advantage compared to the other housemates.
Controversy
Humans are drawn to controversy and Mercy served loads of it on the show. In the Nigerian parlance she ‘Pepper Dem’.
From being issued several strikes to stating that she once dated a footballer , not forgetting when she revealed that she went to the BBNaija house with a vibrator, Mercy sure got her fans attention with her ‘drama’.
The more drama she elicited, the more attention she got. Perhaps, this must have been one of her winning formulas. People gravitate towards controversies. This must have contributed to her win.
The battle with Tacha
The last battle she had with the most controversial housemate, Tacha, also gave Mercy an edge to become the overall winner.
Eye for the money

Mercy was one of the strong characters of the show. Her fashion sense showed all the time.
