    BBNaija: Real evictions begin Sunday

    The first taste of anxiety that usually greets contestants of Big Brother reality show occurred on Sunday, when some of the housemates who were earlier nominated in a supposed eviction were all packed in anticipation of possible ejection from the show.

    Although the real situation was known to fans of the show who didn’t have to bother trying to keep their favaourite housemates in the house through public voting, the housemates soon knew it was all a hoax after show host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu jostle with tension by first announcing that some of them have been saved, and after a long straight face, disclosed to them it was all one of the tricks of Big Brother.

    It was just two weeks of the show and the third live show which featured Nigerian singer Niniola who performed ‘Maradona’ and ‘Sicker’ to the delight of the studio guests.

    The housemates all heaved a sigh of relief, just as the strategic partners came together for new strategies, knowing real eviction will begin this Sunday.

    As Ebuka puts it, at least, two pairs will be eviction during Sunday’s live show.

    The new week began immediately with Head of House task in which all male housemates and Vandora were disqualified for disobeying rules of the game. Khloe eventually emerged Head of House after competing with Ifu and Bambam.

    Ironically, Tobi who had been Head of House for two weeks in a row could not enjoy the immunity that comes with the position, as there were no evictions all the while. He and his pair, Cee-C are at the mercy of other housemates who have not had it good with Cee-C, including Teddy A/Bambam whom Tobi put up for possible eviction in place of Miracle/Nina.

    As voting is begins at 6.30pm Nigerian time on Monday and closes at 9:00pm on Thursday, viewers are urged to vote via SMS, mobile site and website by texting “Vote” followed by the team name to 32052. Voting via mobile site & website requires registering on africamagic.tv/bbvote with a mobile number & password, and entering the OTP number to vote for free.

    BBNaija ‘Double Wahala’: Khloe wins Head of House task for week three

    Big Brother “Naija” housemate Khloe has won the weekly immunity task popularly known as the Head of House task.

    Khloe came up against Ifu Ennada and Bambam, with the latter losing out in the first round with zero points. This meant Khloe and Ifu Ennada went head to head after they both scored three points and six points respectively in a game of ball throwing.

    Khloe officially became the latest boss of the house after she managed to grab more points than Ifu Ennada during the latter rounds of the contest.

    She declared her naivety for the role and sought for help from her fellow housemates.

    She said “Guys please help me; I am a woman of many flaws”.

    Traditionally, the HoH first assignment is to read the wager brief and lead the deliberation of the wager percentage.

    “Kween” Khloe initially prompted for a 25 per cent wager, however other housemates who were fed up with ‘poverty’ in the house having lost all their previous wagers opted for a 50 per cent wager.

    The latest HoH task has more consequence on the housemates compared to the previous two won by Tobi Bakare because “Kween” Khloe’s replacements during the nomination show will be put up for a potential eviction from the show.

    “Biggie” announced two pairs will be leaving the house on Sunday, Feb. 18, during the live eviction show.

    The nominees would be the first housemates to be evicted from the show after the two previous evictions were fake evictions.

    The unique idea and theme of this year’s show “double wahala” means that K-Square made up of K-brule and Khloe will have immunity from the nomination process which began on Monday.

  • BBNaija: Fake eviction drives emotions

    BBNaija: Fake eviction drives emotions

    There were emotional moments as contestants of the Big Brother Naija reality show discussed about the possible evictions of some of them last night.

    It was the first time the Housemates were supposedly faced ‘Eviction’ fever, and it was no surprise that the pairs all have their own theories and strategies about how things would pan out.

    Alex for instance was very emotional Saturday night as she was crying over the prospect that someone will be going home. Leo on the other hand was there trying to help her every step of the way but it is obvious that her tears are a result of the fact that she nominated Khloe and the two have become noticeably close recently.

    Also, Princess had been very vocal about the fact that she is into Miracle and her and partner Bitto laid into Nina about her relationship with him. Even though Nina stated that they have an agreement and that she has a boyfriend outside the House. Nina said they are ‘just friends’. Bitto and Princess made light work of destroying her comment. Is this all part of a strategy or are Prito burning bridges?

    Vandora and Dee-One have become quite the understated power couple in the House. They are both smart in the way that they have managed to fly under the radar and stay on a good vibe with most of the Housemates. As the pair have not been nominated, they spent some time Sunday afternoon dissecting the current situation.

    Vandora told her partner that she thinks it is funny how most of the Housemates do not think she is smart and this works to her advantage. They both came to the conclusion that Leo is in fact the actual player in the House and is making moves on many of the ladies. Dee-One expresses that he does not think Tobi is strategic enough in his moves and he thinks that Cee-C has a huge influence over him.

    There are many sides to this story, even as eviction looms.
    One that tops all accounts is that Exclusive and Lolu have been paddies before now. In fact, Lolu contributed to DJ Exclusive’s hustle and now, both men are in the spotlight.

    I was the first person to play DJ Exclusive, Wizkid’s song- Lolu

    Big Brother Housemate, Lolu has alluded to being the first person to ever support DJ Exclusive and Wizkid.

    He recounted his days at Beat FM Ibadan 97.9 where he helped debut the single which Cool FM Super Star DJ, Exclusive featured Wizkid in.

    The song is titled Jeje ft Wizkid by DJ Exclusive.

    Still very shaken by the turn of events leading to DJ Exclusive hailing him at the Friday night party, Lolu confessed to be the driving force to Exclusive’s success.

    “The very day I played that jam I didn’t have 20 naira on me. I walked home. Why I no go cry even say I try, I always dey code.

    Lolu is very smart that is what everyone says.”

    Leo who wasn’t too surprised at all said:

    “I always tell people that you as ambitious as I am.”

    “You never know who I be and until tonight una never know.” this was another emotional Lolu response.

     However, Lolu admitted that still, he was never fulfilled. He just accepts himself as an investment banker, one that keeps hustling.

    “No I am just there.” He stated.

    Even though Leo felt otherwise, remarking how great Lolu’s journey was.

    “You are not paying for any of these. This is free advertising. I love the fact that everyone calls me ambitious,” Leo enthused.

    How Big Brother is making a ‘flirt’ of Lolu

    Tuesday was rowdy in the Big Brother Naija House. It was just Day 10 of this year’s edition of the reality show, and bottled emotions are exploding already. This time, it was clearly about food.

    Although the outburst was between Princess, the notable ‘cook’ in the House and Cee-C, the self-isolating strategic-turned-romance partner of the Head of House, Tobi; other housemates took side albeit distantly.

    Princess’ overbearing kitchen role did not go well with some housemates who either did not like a particular meal or felt they were given a small portion of the food.

    However, two events introduced by Biggie doused the tension – an urgent pantomime production that required the cooperation of all housemate, and a secret task given to the gentle Lolu and partner of the daring Anto to woo any other female housemate in the house and get them to fall in love with him.

    While they were busy with the drama sketch, audition and rehearsal, attention shifted naturally from the previous quarrel. Also, everyone was wary of Lolu, knowing he had something up his sleeve. To complicate matter for Lolu, Biggie was to reward any housemate who is able to figure out what secret task he was given. The two ladies of his target – Ahneeka and Vandora – have been avoiding him not knowing the real nature of his task.

    After their presentation of the pantomime, he began to chat and flirt with Ahneeka in the kitchen, trying to make her laughs, letting her know she is the kind of girl he likes. Whether or not Ahneeka would yield his advances, one snag is clear; all the ladies know that Anto is Lolu’s paired partner and they had expressed fondness openly.

    BBNaija: What Tobi and I have is “Play friendship” – Cee-C

    As Cee-C and Princess settle…

     

    Tobi had to bring the two girls behind closed doors to settle whatever underlying issues they had

    Princess went first stating that there were no issues between them other than the time Cee-C flared up at her during the “chicken incident.”

    Cee-C explained all issues as they reached a stalemate.

    “I really don’t have issues with you. I thought we were closer,” Princess admitted.

    “Moving forward, I don’t want to have issues again. We started very cool; I was eating your food. And we just had a very bad vibe,” Cee-C stated.

    Princess admitted that she was disappointed in herself.

    “I am the only one that calls people and report them to themselves and leave them to keep talking about the issues.”

    “I even pushed you to a guy you liked.”

    However, Cee-C tried to clear the air saying she just began to have feelings for Tobi. She admitted she wasn’t in love with him earlier on and he was not in the cadre of guys she liked.

    Even though she admitted that the tides have changed now and She and Tobi are getting along.

    “I didn’t know when I said Choose me. What we even have now is play friendship,” the down-to-earth Cee-C finally defined her relationship.

    Both girls came to the point of resolving all issues from the genesis as well as charted a new template for their “clean slate” friendship.

    This was done to the admiration of other house mates.

  • I’ve slept with a lot of men – Anto

    I’ve slept with a lot of men – Anto

    One week after the ongoing Big Brother Naija (BBN) reality show kicked off; animosity, tension of eviction and daring activities have begun among the 20 housemates.

    In one of the events leading to a reunion between Anto and Kbrule, Anto said frankly to Kbrule that kissing means nothing to her, as she had slept with a lot of men without attaching emotions to the act.

    “I’m a grown ass woman; I’ve f..ked a lot of niggas.

    “No one should take this personal, everybody is having good time, it’s all a game.

    “The same way I kissed him, I have kissed others,” she said.

    Recall that Kbrule injured himself after Anto shunned his romantic advances only to offer Lolu a passionate kiss during an ice cream challenge on Saturday.

    The fair-skinned male housemate, who sprained his ankle and wrist by jumping from the first floor, however escaped being ejected from the show after contravening Section 61, Sub-section 1 of the reality show’s rule.

    The rule forbids contestants from any kind of violence, including self-inflicted ones.

    Kbrule, according to Biggie, will be sacked from the show should a similar error be committed twice more. His pair in the game, Khloe, will share the same fate as the rule of the game applies.

    On Sunday night, the housemates showed how daring they could be, when they played the popular ‘Truth or Dare’ game.

    While Princess was the queen of the game, Alex, Miracle, and Ifu did not shy away from erotic challenges assigned to them, while Kbrule showed his grouse for Anto by choosing the punishment of eating red pepper instead of kissing her.

    As the tension of nomination for possible eviction also pervades the house, show host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu revealed that the nominations among housemates will be fake, as they won’t require the usual voting by fans of the show.
