    Big Brother Naija housemate Michkey has alleged that his fellow housemate Zion confided in him about the issues in his relationship with Chinwe.

    Michkey claimed that Zion admitted he couldn’t marry Chinwe because she reportedly dominates him due to her wealth.

    “Wanni and Handi stopped talking to me because I said I’m not interested in having anything with them because I’m in a four-year relationship”, he said.

    BBNaija Season 9: HoH to get immunity

    The organisers of Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Season 9 have introduced a new twist to the reality TV show, granting the Head of House (HoH) duo immunity from possible eviction. 

    This change, announced on Sunday night, during the third Night Eviction Show, marks a significant shift in the game’s dynamics.

    On the ‘No Loose Guard’ season, the HoH duo did not enjoy immunity from eviction, while only the winners of the Custodian Challenge and Immunity game were spared from nomination. 

    However, with the new rule, the Custodian Challenge Game has been discontinued, and the HoH role will be the sole determinant of immunity.

    According to show anchor Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the HoH challenge will now take place on Mondays from 2pm.

    Former Big Brother Naija housemate Chinne has clarified her age, dismissing rumours that she is in her 50s.

    In a recent interview with Hero Daniels, Chinne revealed that she is 31 years old, contrary to widespread speculation.

    Chinne expressed her confusion over why many people believed she was much older, especially considering the actual ages of her fellow housemates.

    She pointed out that some of her housemates, including the Mbadiwe Twins and Rhuthee, are older than her, while she, Chizoba, and Chinwe are the same age.

    “I’m just 9 years older than my niece, Mbadiwe twins are far far older than I am, Ruthie is a year older and I and Chinwe are age mates, I wonder why people say I’m in my 50s,” Chinne said.

    Chinne shared her support for Kellyrae and Kassia, a pair she hopes will win the N100 million grand prize.

    She also revealed that she was unaware of their marriage and thought Kellyrae was simply helping Kassia, whom he referred to as the “tiny girl”.

    “I’m close to Kellyrae, I didn’t know he was married to Kassia… He always said he was just helping the tiny girl. I hope they win”, she said.

    Shaun shared that being with Wanni, his romantic interest in the house, boosted his mood due to her uplifting personality.

    He also said Victoria withdrew into herself and found it difficult to navigate and mingle with other housemates. 

    “I struggled in the first week with my duo, we kinda had a problem before coming into the house, I came in wanting to have a space away from her a little, so when I was with Wanni, she lifted my spirit and Victoria went into her shell”, he stated.

    Shaun also noted that the Victoria he’s seeing in the house isn’t the same person he knew before entering the show.

    “I am rooting for the Mbadiwe twins to win this season,” she said.

    Nne, who was evicted from the house with partner Chinne, attributed their eviction to the custodians, Streeze, who she believes saw them as a “threat”.

    She also suggested that Streeze’s decision may have been motivated by revenge, as Nne and Chinne did not save them the previous week when they had the opportunity.

    Big Brother Naija contestant Zion has made a confession on his relationship with duo and girlfriend, Chinwe.

    In a conversation with fellow housemate Fairme David, Zion claimed Chinwe isn’t his ideal woman, but he appreciates how she treats him.

    He further shared his experience with Gen Z women, stating that some have sense, while others are more stressful.

    Zion: “She [Chinwe] is actually a matured lady. She is the firstborn, she takes care of her siblings. Her mother is late and her dad has remarried.
