…A reporter’s personal experience
Everyone gets ecstatic when a grass to grace story is being told .That explains the reason Nigerians were immediately intrigued by the story of Efe Ejeba, a 24 year old rapper and Economics graduate who months back was just an upcoming artiste partaking in the Big Brother Naija reality TV show, till he was announced the winner last Sunday.
The Intrigues that led to his victory can be chronicled in a book for all to read. Amazingly, pastors and prayer warriors have been using him as a prayer point, calling on the ‘God of Efe’ to answer their prayers.
The Search
On Tuesday 11th of April, accompanied by #TeamEfe campaign leader for Warri chapter Ernest Ojegba, our reporter went in search of Efe, Bisola and the other Big Brother Naija finalists as soon as he was informed they were at Protea Hotel in Victory Island Lagos.
The hotel was a flurry of activities on its own. Family and friends of the BBNaija finalists were gathered to welcome them. Everyone wanted to talk to them, take pictures with them or make a video with them.All the finalists present were Efe, Bisola, TBoss, Debie-Rise and Marvis.
Efe… the man of the moment
Efe was dressed in a black tee-shirt with the inscription ‘Based on Logistics. Weariness and exhaustion was written on his face, but he still managed to take pictures with his family and friends who came visiting and felicitating with him.

The Fatigued Bisola
Bisola, the first runner-up of Big Brother Naija was fatigued during the visit. Perhaps it was as a result of the long flight or the media tour that started that day.
Bisola was seen with her sister and a few of her friends gisting and generally having a great time. A few times, she declined taking pictures with some members of #TeamEfe, perhaps as a result of being fatigued.
The TBoss you don’t know
While in the hotel, our reporter noticed that the beautiful and light skinned damsel was mostly on her own at the hotel lobby where other finalists were hanging out after checking into their hotel rooms.
TBoss clad in a white Tee-shirt, was on phone calls for the most part of the visit, thanking her friends for voting for her while she was on BBNaija.
After her phone calls, she was visibly deserted for most part of the night.

Between Marvis and Debie-Rise
Marvis and Debie- Rise are darlings; though they didn’t emerge winners, their excitement on Tuesday was palpable.
Debie-Rise, arrayed in a red dress took pictures with her fans and friends excitedly, she was also seen talking enthusiastically.
In the same vein, Marvis was dressed in black tee-shirt on a blue jean, taking pictures and basking in the euphoria of her new found stardom.
During BBNaija Marvis, TBoss and Debie-Rise were not close pals, but they have been together hanging out at interviews and events.
Will their new found friendship last?Only time will tell
From having a burning desire to be part of Big Brother Naija and now becoming overnight celebrities, no doubt they have all moved from grass to grace shining like diamonds.
