Big Brother Naija, BBNaija housemate, Laycon has come under attack by Twitter users for putting up a ‘pity card’ strategy like 2018 BBNaija winner, Efe.
The reactions were stirred up on Wednesday after Laycon narrated to Prince on Tuesday night about how his father died of an illness.
Laycon said his painting task will be dedicated to his dad as a tribute, adding that a breakthrough in music after the house will make his mother proud.
This statement did not go down well with some viewers as they opinion that Laycon loves to tell sad stories in order to get pity votes.
Some Nigerians linked his strategy in the house to that of 2018 BBNaija winner, Efe who hailed from Warri and always told stories of how he suffered.

@Kingcassandra “Can’t Laycon speak about his life? How many times has he spoken about his life story only today and you want to bring pity card nonsense. Laycon likes to repeat stuff to know people’s opinion. So better know this and rest.”

@Cjesssie “ Laycon be getting pity votes. Come and beat me I have said it and it’s true.”
@Amakaconfidenc7 “ You are actually right
Laycon is getting pity votes. What is in him?@Ese “ A couple of old housemates have tried it in the past. Efe was one of them.”
@Lillyafe “ Don’t vote this year’s winner with sympathy oh. Vote content.”
@Bervelynn “ Nigerians like voting for people based on pity and poverty and it’s annoying. Big brother better make voting available to all african countries and see South Africans, Ghanaians and Uganda’s vote based on pure love and not pity. BBN isn’t a poverty alleviated show.”
@Ese “As in, that’s exactly what I told my mom. That Laycon’s strategy is the pity script. Fell for it once with Efe, not falling for it again.”
