  • Return of BBNaija housemates: Angry Nigerians react

    Following the announcement made by the organizers of the ongoing BBNaija reality TV show that two evicted housemates would be voted back to the house, Nigerians on social media have condemned the new development.

    The host of the show, Ebuka on Sunday said:“There’s a major change in this week’s voting.

     

    “Big Brother has accorded two evicted housemates the opportunity to return to the show and play for the money.

     

    “So instead of voting for eviction, you will rather be voting for recall of two housemates.”

     

    Angry Nigerians took to their social media handles expressing their disappointments, adding that they expected the organizers to bring in fake housemates not evicted ones.

     

    Here are comments gathered by TheNewsGuru

    @Tweetoracle “I am vehemently OPPOSING the MOVE to return evicted HM’s to the House. Our voice is rising in collective ire. We don’t want this. I repeat !!! We don’t want this !!!!

     

    @Myamisa “This is rubbish hawu they were evicted for a reason y come back??

     

    @Fluffybanana “We are aware they’ve done this before in other countries. But most times the evicted housemates are isolated from the world. Even in BBA, they didn’t go home, biggie kept them in a barn! Change the game if you want but let it be fair!

     

    @fabulouspromo “This is just not fair nah Big @BBNaija. Don’t bring any yeye evicted house mate back oh…They’ll know whatsupp.. I’m beginning to think there’s a corruption somewhere tho.

     

     

    @kingofsinging “The returned housemates might just be re-evicted almost immediately. It would be terrible for their reputation if they get evicted within 2 weeks of being back in the house.

     

    @ola_mide555 “We were expecting fake housemate big brother brought a nonsense idea #BBNaija

     

    @dombarney “Well a lot of people saying it’s wrong for biggie to bring back housemates, the truth is the move can actually make the game more competitive, some of the housemates are just so complacent right now. Anyways please vote Khloe and Kbrule back

     

    @UrpwettieGF “Imagine if an evicted or disqualified housemate win the show… Big Brother Nigeria Season 3 would be the scam of century

     

    @Markex01 “The whole #BBNaija crew are senseless. If they bring back evicted hms then it’s totally obvious that everything has been scripted. U guys are outta ideas I can feel it imo

     

    @Rooboy “We don’t want any of them back on the show!!!

     

    @Cee_oma “No #Bbnaija ex HMs is worth bringing back. Please let us move on!!

  • #BBNaija:3 reasons why TBoss lost

    #BBNaija:3 reasons why TBoss lost

    At this stage, Tokunbo Idowu popularly known as TBoss is the most talked about and controversial Big Brother Naija Housemate. In an interview her former housemate Bally says it was difficult living with her, stating that she is difficult to understand.Now that the winner has been unveiled, TBoss fans fondly called #TBossnation are asking questions wondering why she lost out on the SUV and 25million naira grand prize.

    Here are our top three reasons

    1. She couldn’t sing our national anthem

    Being able to sing your country’s national anthem is a thing of joy and pride, but out dearest TBoss flunked at it . To make ti worse, her elder sister sang it on her behalf in a despicable viral video . I have nothing against the beautiful TBoss but she should be held accountable for not being able to sing the national anthem on a live international programme. The national anthem shouldn’t be a song we take for granted like TBoss.

     

    1. Avoidable drama and controversy

    Though Big Brother Naija has helped TBoss gain exposure and build her self esteem, people refuse to vote for her because of the dramas and controversies she was enmeshed in, during the reality TV show. From the Kemen issue to fighting with Bally, Bisola and then Debie Rise, TBoss gained a reputation for becoming a controversy magnet on the show. Perhaps, Nigerians felt a controversial person doesn’t deserve their votes.

     

    3.Loose words

    Just like anybody else, Whenever TBoss is angry, some loose words comes out of her. She has a penchant for expressing herself, and in doing that she utters words she isn’t supposed to utter

    During a conversation with Efe she said:” If I win the 25m today, I will spend the money before next week, it’s not about the money but the relation built here can end up giving you more than 25m.

    “Serious, my life has never been based on money, I have people hitting on me that have several private jets but I’m here with you people, we are all fighting this fight, competing for the prize, I’m not trying to cheat or disrespect anyone.”
