But she replied: “Don’t say you are not wanted. I still want to be around you. If not, I won’t send you. If you’re coming towards me I would just look away”.
Laycon further said he feels Erica has sold herself short.
Erica however asked him to make the statement clear but he didn’t.
Biggie has expressed displeasure at three Housemates, Tolanibaj, Vee, and Tochi over the consistent use of their native languages.
On the 18th day, Biggie gave a final warning to the three housemates, who he accused of having developed the habit of speaking in their native languages.
Biggie registered his displeasure, saying the three Housemates were infringing on the house rules with their consistent use of their native language.
“Anytime you speak any other language apart from English or Pidgin, you must interpret it immediately. Failure to do so is an infringement on the House rules,” he said.
However, Biggie stressed it was a thing of pride to represent one’s ethnicity but reminded the erring housemates that they do not share the same ethnic background with other Housemates.
Tolanibaj and Vee are of the Yoruba descent while Tochi is of the Igbo descent.
In the same vein, Kaisha and Bright O were not left out of the reproach.
Biggie called them out to ensure they never miss any workout sessions else they stand to incur a fine.
Kaisha and Bright O once overslept and missed out on the workout session and ended up incurring fines.
Viewers and fans of are getting intrigued by the new love triangle involving Laycon, Erica, and Kiddwaya.
Laycon has expressed his feelings for Erica but Erica seems to enjoy the charm and accent, which Kiddwaya has been flaunting since the show began.
Though Erica wants Laycon – she has often admired his mind and conversations – Kiddwaya’s charm is so strong she consistently falls for it.
Laycon has been in a phase since he opted for letting Erica be to ease the hurt.
On day 18, in a conversation with Erica, she agreed to Laycon’s suggestion he gives her a little breathing space just to get his act and get over his affection for her.
However, the strategy didn’t seem to be working in his favour as he laid in bed mopping all through Thursday.
Luckily, Laycon had Praise by his side. Praise was quick to tell him that he had been moody all morning and needed to get himself together.
He even had a notion of what he believed Erica was doing to Laycon. Notwithstanding, he tried to lift Laycon’s mood and even promised to help distract him from Erica.
Erica, on her part, can’t seem to get enough of Kiddwaya’s charms. Just a few days after breaking it off to reunite with Laycon, she was back with him.
Aside from the obvious that Erica can’t seem to resist Kiddwaya’s charms, Erica wants to eat her cake and have it.
When Vee and Tolanibaj asked Erica if she felt anything for Laycon, she responded that all she was thinking about at that moment was Kiddwaya.
Erica further stressed she wished she could insert Laycon’s mind in Kiddwaya’s body.
The duo of Vee and Tolanibaj has been having a field day discussing Erica’s choice and how she keeps going back to Kiddwaya despite leading Laycon on.

However, one of the most revealing sessions was that of Trickytee, who spilled a lot including the recent fall out between Ozo and Prince, which he said was unnecessary.
Trickytee said the fall out may have been caused due to both parties having interest in Nengi.
He also gave Kiddwaya some accolades for his creativity during their recent tasks.
“I just noticed that Kiddwaya is very creative and he’s a go getter.
“I just saw that this week because of what he did for his group in the flutterwave task and the Dulux task,” he said.
Just after they decided to break up and remain friends, Erica and Kiddwaya’s ship seem to continue to sail as both love birds can’t let go.
Earlier, they had agreed to put an end to their love affair to stay focus on the big price.

Having discovered that Laycon seems to have distanced himself from Erica, Dorothy has offered some advice.
Laycon had been reluctant to express his feelings for Erica but decided to do so after Bright O advised him to shoot his shot last week.
However, Erica seems to prefer Kiddwaya’s company to Laycon, who in turn decided to recoil to his shell.
So bad is the relationship between Laycon and Erica that the two Housemates now avoid each other.
However, Dorothy, who seems to enjoy a friendship status with Laycon, took over the role of a love expert as she dished out advice to Laycon during a chat not to distance himself from Erica else he would lose her to Kiddwaya.
“If something is going to happen it’s going to happen naturally without pressure,” Dorothy told Laycon.
She continues: “But don’t tell her you don’t want to talk to her for a while because that’s you pushing her to start hanging with Kidd or whoever she’s talking to.
“Don’t do that it’s risky because you will still be here and you’re pushing her and what if she gets comfortable with the person”.
