“It’s official fam! We are Marudites 🦋

“We coined this from ‘Maria’, ‘erudite’ and aphrodite. So basically, it represents knowledgeable, loving and beautiful people. ❤️ #BBNaija #MariaBBNaija #Marudites”

Maria is a former air hostess, turned realtor who enjoys cooking, exercising, hiking, acting, and dancing.

She prides herself on being a loving and kind-hearted individual who is always looking for new adventures.

Her travels have taken her around the world and to all continents, except Antarctica.

Though she speaks of herself as “a symbol of love in human form”, people are often shocked by her stern side when they cross her or take her for granted. “I can get extreme when disrespected to the fullest”.

She recently disclosed that she plans on making all the male housemates fall in love with her.
