BBNaija kicks off to an exciting start *Amidst complaints
Reality television show, Big Brother Naija season 4, kicked off Sunday with an exciting start. The show which airing had to be delayed since its announcement late last year kicked off with 21 housemates.
Some Nigerians have expressed their shock over the choice of housemates in the ongoing fourth season of the Big Brother Naija reality show.
Though, the first day of airing witnessed the housemates getting to know each other, there were complaints from different quarters that the participants in this year’s episode tagged “Peper dem,” are more foreign than Nigerians.
The respondents who spoke to NAN wondered how Manchester-based Mike, London police office Khafi and Ike, who said this was his first one in Lagos, made the cut while thousands of Nigerians flooded audition centres in February.
NAN recalls that audition centres across the country were crowded with people struggling to get in by scaling the fence.
Viewers felt it was unfair to have people risk lives to audition and then pick Nigerians in the diaspora.
@Omojuwa said, “I have a problem with everyday Nigerians struggling across the country to audition for this thing, yet it appears they stood no chance from the beginning.
“That should have been made clear to them from the start. Big Brother Phonetics. It appears this is Big Brother Nigeria Diaspora.”
Housemates will spend 99 days in the house, competing for the grand prize worth 60 million Naira.
