The Twitter account of Big Brother Naija housemate, Hermes, has sparked mixed reactions after the Twitter handler of Hermes posted a video of Hermes way back in 2019. The video generated drag for him and his team as many concluded that the handler was looking for pity votes from the public in order to make Hermes remain on the show or win the show.

After the video got to the public, Hermis was said to be able to gather 150 thousand naira, which he gave to the affected families.
In reaction to the social media content, fans of the reality TV star took to the comment section to chant appraisals of how good their favorite is. Many people commented that Hermis is selfless and a deserving winner of BBN Season 7.
However, while some praised him, some called his handler out, saying giving out the information is not necessary but for the interior motive of getting pity votes from the public.

A Twitter user identified as @Favour_Izukah replied, “Don’t mean to be insensitive but what’s this game you are trying to play?”
Another Twitter user identified as @Nana_yankeeclef tweeted, “Pls pls how did he raised the funds? Don’t just post anything to make him unpopular oo.. this sympathy votes won’t work on some of us..HOW DID HE RAISED THE FUNDS!!!”
Another Twitter user identified as @pascalokoli tweeted, “Don’t beg for vote out of pity, what we are voting for is the content on tele which he’s not giving 😏😏😏.”
