    BBNaija Love: The Politics of emotion

    I now see why Anto and Lolu make a good fit.

    Lolu is a smart ass. Every response he has given to Cee-C has been on point. Probably Cee-C has met the man she ought to be with.

    And just like Cee-C, every lady has the only person who can perfectly handle her and tell her the truth to her face. I hope Tobi realises he is just a fool for love after all. What Cee-C still terms a “partnership.”

    In the end, BamBam seems to be Tobi’s fit. The empathy they share resonates loudly and within. Like a soulmate. A sudden ray of peace like a home made meal that greets you after a hectic day from Lagos Streets.

    The irony of this evening, a lesson so real. Real enough to be grasped like today’s match when Real face PSG and hearts continue to beat in fear, worry and anxiety.

    I think Big Brother teaches us how to live life in an enigmatic philosophy. And beyond all the trash we call it, there is a subtle message that we cannot see.

    One that is re-enacted in Lords of the Flies and Joseph Conrad’s Book. Heart of darkness I think. How the intricacies of man begins to yield true meaning after sometime.

    Hell yeah, and that is life. Life is a flowing stream that continues to yield meaning and we need just one person to brighten it to be real enough to us.

    And for as long as these housemates continue to bring drama to our screens; We also will continue to learn that life is but a journey in bits and bits and tiny scraps and pieces till we reach the end.

    With someone that can handle us by and by, so that we can at least make more meaning to Iife and to live the way we ought to.

    BBNaija: Lolu all teary as DJ Exclusive hails him

    It so happens that tonight’s party is the best Big Brother Naija could give us.

     Miracle finds a new dance partner as Princess cannot keep her hands off him. Bitto can’t hold himself as lust overrides him. He struggles to let go of Princess, until she wiggled past him.
    Everyone is high on all fours tonight. It is the effect of alcohol and the fun. It is Double wahala mixed with a heavy dose of fun.
    But then there is the cry baby- Lolu. He is hailed by DJ Exclusive tonight and the emotional shadow of himself beings tears to his eyes.
    He tells Anto:
    “He kept calling my name all through the party. My name, you heard it right?”
    Anto plays the protective girlfriend as she tries to console 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.

    But Lolu is the emotional cry baby. Even till now, he is still dazed.
    Double Wahala turns up a notch tonight. Why are we not amazed? Lolu’s act seems beyond the ordinary. The tears are questionable. But we would soon find out the truth.
    As we always do.

    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.
