The BBTitans housemates have become conscious of the fact that the game was switched up exactly after one week when Biggie paired the housemates and noted that whatever half of the pair does, affects the pair as a whole. Voting platforms have since been opened for fans and viewers to save their favourite housemates ahead of the second Sunday Live and eviction show.
Popular comedian Chinedu Emmanuel aka Nedu has claimed most of the ladies that participate in the BBNaija reality TV show do so precisely to attract customers (men).
He argued they have nothing else to offer other than their bodies.
He made the claim during an interview with one of the Season 7 edition housemates, Doyinsola David aka Doyin, on his podcast, ‘The Honest Bunch’.
“Awon Big Brother, ebi pa won o (The Big Brother participants are hungry folks).
“You know what Big Brother does for you, it takes you from here and shoots you up but there is no substance to hold you on to.
Actor Damola Olatunji has shared unforgettable memories with his children when they were toddlers.
He recounted their reactions to seeing him on TV set while he was away filming.
The movie director and producer, who fathers a twin, a boy and a girl, recalled how they broke his television sets on several occasions while trying to hug him after spotting him on the screen.
“Let me give you two scenarios and what happened. There was a time, when they were a bit younger, about three or so; I was off to a location and I was filming.
“They showed me on TV and they saw me; so they rushed to the TV. They actually climbed the shelf and they were pulling the TV and screaming, “Daddy! Daddy!”
“They pulled down the TV from the shelf and spoilt the TV and that happened a couple of times. Anytime they saw me on TV, they wanted to embrace the TV and they ended up bringing down the TV from the rack or wall.
”So, growing up, I had to position the TV a bit higher,” he said in an interview.
Recounting another indelible occurrence where they watched him shot dead on TV, Olatunji added: “There was another experience, where the character I played in a movie was shot and seeing that my kids started crying.
“It was so terrible that they had to call me from home and had to put it on a video call for them to see that I was okay.
“That was it growing up but now, they understand that we’re shooting movies and they think differently.”
Both housemates expressed likeness to Oliver but Lukay made the assertion during their conversation. “I like her too but her armpit smells,” Lukay said.
“I’m going to tell her because we are cool like that. A good friend will tell you,” he added.
Actress Regina Daniels has got the online community talking as she recently flaunted the cash gift by her hubby, Ned Nwoko.
A viral video captured the billionaire wife displaying the newly redesigned naira notes gifted to her by her politician hubby.

Veteran actor Chidi Mokeme has opened up on why he was away from the scene for a long tim
He said he couldn’t act because of a rare health condition that manifested like a facial stroke. The star actor of the blockbuster movie ‘Shanty Town’ explained he was diagnosed with Bell’s palsy, a condition that causes sudden weakness in the muscles on one side of the face.
He made this known on Channels Television’s ‘Rubbin Minds’ at the weekend.
According to him: “Yeah, I have been off the scene for a while after we did the promotional tour for ‘76 and we went to the Toronto International Film Festival. “I will say something that I haven’t actually said somewhere else because after that, as we were preparing to go to the UK for the British International Film Festival, I came down with something called Bell’s Palsy, it was the first time I was hearing it.
“Bell’s Palsy comes like a stroke and it’s something that affects one side of your face and sort of gives you a droop. It was something that the doctors felt was incurable because they didn’t know what causes it and they didn’t know how to treat it.
“So, as an actor, if you come down with something that affects your face, you can imagine what I must have been going through at that time.”
“I thought it was something I could move around with, I tried to come for the Lagos premiere of 76 at the time but the attention was sort of focused on the face rather than the premiere.
“Then I knew it was not something that I could work with. I will take time off to try and sort out that problem. So in the meantime, I just focused on doing my other business.”

Discussing her dating age preference with media personality, Toke Makinwa on her podcast, ‘Tokemoments’, the comedic act said she gets the feeling of cockroaches in her belly when younger guys 40 slide into her DM to woo her.
46-year-old Chigul warned them to stay away from her and never approach her, especially those in their 20s
She wondered what they’ll be discussing considering the age bracket and also because she had tried dating younger guys in the past but proved to be an absurd idea.
“Your own, they gave you butterflies. Mine they gave me cockroaches. I’m like, ‘What the hell do you want from me, Satan?’ I can’t no more because, I don’t know. I say, ‘Uncle why?’ ‘Oh I like you’. Don’t like me. Just slide out of my DM. Close the DM. Tell Instagram to off your mic.
“My groove has died. It doesn’t want to come back. Leave us alone! If you are not 40, look! Even 40 sef. Look I tried. They said try younger man, I did. And it was not a good idea. Neither was it a good idea and it ‘ideaed’ out. I said I’m not doing,” she said.
Precisely stating her preferred age bracket, Chigul added: “If you want to step to me, check your passport, the date of birth. If by happenstance it doesn’t say 197…, don’t come my way, okay. Don’t! Don’t approach me. Lose my number, lose my name.
“Now, because I need to be able to have a conversation that you’ll understand should be in your 40s. So, that when I say something, you’ll say, Ah! It’s true’.
“What am I going to be talking with a 20 something year old, what? How you buy o! Look at his chest?!
“Then I’ll now be quarrelling with younger women over….he’s somebody’s prayer point, mbanu (NO, NO, NO!)”
