    Speaking to Journalists at the Margaret Ekpo International Airport, Tony described his BBNaija experience as interesting as well as amazing.

    “It was a worthwhile experience. Big brother Africa is the only show which I really don’t know what they are looking for every time.

    “But each time I go for it, I always pray that, whatever they are looking for, I should have it, ‘’ he said.

    He urged young people with passion for showbiz to go for work towards achieving them, adding that the BBNaija as a platform “offers a wide range of opportunities.’’

    BBNaija: Gifty, Marvis, TTT know fate this Sunday

    •As new HoH saves TBoss

    Gifty is going through the same anxiety she faced last week, having been put up again for possible eviction this Sunday.

    She was nominated on Monday alongside TBoss and ThinTallTony. However, TBoss who had gone through the heat before, albeit a fake eviction, was saved by new Head of House, Ese, who replaced her with Marvis. It will be Marvis’ second time on the eviction hot seat too.

    Predictions for this week’s nominations were a bit sketchy at first but as the housemates made their way one after the other to the Diary Room to nominate two housemates each for possible eviction, it became clear who would be making the cut.

    As it was during the last nomination show, Bally was called in first by big brother to make his selection. He once again delayed the use of his advantage card and nominated Bisola and TTT. For the rest housemates, Efe nominated Tboss and Gifty; Gifty nominated Kemen and Bassey; TTT nominated Tboss and Gifty; Bassey nominated Efe and TTT; Bisola nominated Tboss and Gifty; Kemen nominated Debie-rise and Gifty; Debie-rise nominated TTT and Marvis; TBoss nominated Marvis and Uriel; Uriel nominated Tboss and Debie-rise while Marvis breaks Bally’s clean slate by nominating him and Uriel for possible eviction.

    Although Gifty, TBoss and TTT had the highest number of nomination nods, as it is the norm, Biggie called on new Head of House and fake housemate, Ese, to save one of the housemates and replace with another. In a defining moment, Ese opted to save TBoss and replaced her with Marvis.

    With the results from the nomination session officially announced by Biggie, social media micro-blogging site Twitter has been buzzing with viewers campaigning for their favorite housemates.

    The countdown to the next eviction show has officially begun!  Voting for the third eviction show started on Monday, February 13 at 21h00 WAT and will close on Saturday, February 18 at 20h00 WAT. Viewers in Nigeria are expected to text the word “Vote” followed by their preferred housemate’s name to 32052. While for the rest of Africa, they are to follow the AfricaMagictv official account on WeChat and click on the menu option ‘BBNaija’ and select their preferred housemate. Viewers are encouraged to vote for the housemate they want to remain in the house.

    The show is aired 24/7 in 45 countries from Nigeria through East, West and Southern Africa on all DStv packages on channel 198 and GOtv channel 29.

    All the action can also be followed on Big Brother Naija social media fan pages with the hashtag #BBNaija on Twitter @BBNaija, Instagram @BigBrotherNaija2017 and Facebook www.facebook.com/bigbrothernaija
