specco: Most of these people who are drooling for BBA will certainly stop watching this filth if it's properly censored and all the amorous scenes and lewd acts removed. They get their kick from these obscene scenes. BBA is filth. BBA is highly censored. Most of the videos you see circulating are from the BBA website VIP section. Same people who pay to have access to VIP contents are same people criticizing BBA and circulating those materials. |

adorable29: Wait O! Those that are analyzing d show here and there nd saying what what what (Melvin's voice). How do u know so much about the show that you can be so quick to castigate it? I ask becos to watch it, you have to go the extra mile of unlockin the code b4 d channel is accessible. To me its like watchin a movie whr there are bad and good guys. Pple with good nd bad morals. The psychology of various African cultures and to some extent d behaviorial attitudes nd inner workings of the human mind. The show to me is an educational "case study". Its funny dat I that watches d show every now nd den haven't seen the sex scene btw beverly nd Angelo but some of u that are callin thunder have seen it. Should I call this hypocrisy? I personally totally don't lik Beverly's personality(a whole lot of pple don't) but d reality is gals lik her does exist. I watch d show wen I Ħª√ę d chance nd I have NEVER seen a sex scene.... The amount of indecency I hav see in all d time I have watched it cannot be compared to just one Nicki Minaj's music video. So Wats all ds exaggeration abt.. Infact d guys (especially) are sooo decent, its amazin how dey can hold Konji 4 3months wit all those pretty gals ard them 24/7. You guys that are here ll fall within 3days if u were in their shoes...LOL... Am typin too much jare. Anyway, its ur opinion and you are entitled to it@poster. Exactly. I have followed BBA for 5 years and I doubt if I have seen a live sex there. Yet people who don't watch it circulate clips from the VIP section of the BBA website. You also said it well, you get to understand more human bahaviour and culture across Africa. Compared to our Naija musical videos, BBA is a decent show. |

I've severally watched BBA with the notion of deciphering where the show is headed, contributions to like-viewers and generally how i could be positively imbued by their activities. Honestly, i've been disappointed but that doesn't justify your view that underdevelopment is solely traced to BBA. |

My problem now is that I don't know why nigerians have taken to video taping sex and nudity and posting them online. A few years back these were unheard of. We really need to look inwards and check mate these unGodly ideologies. |

This initiator of this thread is a true pan african. The only unfortunate thing is that we are now living in a world where immorality holds sway. To me, anybody who condemns this thread is of the devil because what is not good is not good. The fact that individuals have rights and accesses to sites, teevees and other entertainment channels does not justiful the moral decadence BBA is beaming to mllions of people all over. Lets make the world a better place. |

Big brother Africa is exactly what the write-up says it is; damaging to the society. The producers know that but the only thing that motivates them to keep on airing the show is MONEY! Every sane and wise person ought not to spend portions of their precious time and life watching something which is of no benefit but will prove to be detrimental to themselves. My 2cents. |
Re: Big Brother Africa: How Multichoice/dstv Is Under-developing Africa by elampiro(m): 10:00am On Aug 21, 2013 |
People should also understand that to even see BBA on DSTV, yu have to activate the channel by texting a certain code. If you don't activate it, you won't even see the BBA channel even if you have subscribed to DSTV. All the controls and censors are fair enough. If there is any sex, I is taken off and hidden in the VIP section of the website. If we want to talk about immorality in our movies, then there is a long way to go. All those musical videos from D banj, Terry G, Iyanya, Davido, Ducan Mighty, etc which are worse than BBA should first be censored. All their scenes showing semi unclad girls in bikini or bra and pants or micro mini skirts or bump or 'leggis' without top covering should be edited henceforth. Then they move from there and hit nollywood and gollywood, etc etc etc. |

omajali2003: I don't understand why people will read an article like this and rather than reflect soberly go about writing rubbish. If you have no comment keep quiet. The western world is a moally dead society and they will do anything to see that what is left of morality in Africa is also destroyed. BBA is a means of colonizing our cultural and moral values and it is obvious that some of us here are already slaves of this neo-colonialist agenda. Sad The west is morally dead abi? The phone/laptop you used to type your post was engineered where in UNIBEN abi? Nigerians are hypocrites, I hate BBA infact I don't understand why people watch it. Guess what Mr.Preacher man it is their right and it has nothing to do with the underdevelopment of africa. If you want to talk about underdevelopment start with Paul Biya, General Badamusi Babangida, Mobutu Seseseko, Ghadaffi, Obasanjo, Jerry Rawlings, Koffi Annan etc. RUBBISH 1 Like |

novicali: I have read with keen interest about commentaries on the activities of the participants in the program called Big Brother Africa (BBA). Though, I have been blessed not to have watched any of the episodes live, it is interesting to read about some of the rotten activities taking place among the participants. Things that is shameful to mention what more when it done and aired for people’s consumption and we see people applauding and promoting such program with huge resources that should have been directed to some meaningful activities that will help humanity. You Sir is a hypocrite, a country without database is dead. In Nigeria a 10year old kid can buy beer, No? Is it the fault of DSTV or a system where nothing works? PARK WELL |

Conservative Africans are the most confused people on earth. Values my foot! One of the things my grand father told me before he died was that elderly people don't tell lies... That an African value. But what you find today is people who are old enough to be grand fathers(politicians) lying openly on tv. Another one he told me was that elderly people don't steal, and they also protect, correct and guide the youths of the community to responsible adulthood. Is that the case today? You see elderly men in power, customs, police etc stealing, Contractors stealing, etc. The elders don't also protect the youth but use them. Or how would you explain fathers using the youths arround as thugs? I can go on and on but time would fail me if i do so. Those are the real African values gone. And BBA has nothing to do with the above. So save it OP. |

GraphicsPlus: President Barack Obama recently decried the “change in culture” that has altered what he called the view of the American Dream. He took a swipe at Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for being the poster boy and girl respectively of this damaging culture. From what I have seen, it looks to me that you are nothing but an orthodox who fails to come to terms with civilisation. The world at large is dynamic and thus will not remain the same forever. It is very unfortunate that our children will not live in the same environment as their parents because all this is changed by technology and the standard of living. Cultures and traditions were all devised by human being and can as well be changed by human being. Generation of today do not surely want to live under the same morals and values of the past generations and is only a matter of time that all those will be deleted completely. Even If you are a Christian you will understand and come to the realisation that this was as well predicted by the bible that the world will change. The world changed from generations to generations, from the era of Abraham, Jesus Christ and to that of today. Do you by any way insinuate that we should stuck to that era of Abraham when there was no even a currency nor Aeroplanes? I hope you will understand that you cannot force the generation after you to live the same way you lived because they live in a completely different environment than yours. The only thing that they need is good guidance and that's all. 1 Like |

The question not answer by those in support of BBA is the morals behind the so called reality show. These days nobody reward ingenuity, creativity, high flyers in our schools are not encouraged talk less of being rewarded. It’s a sign of the end time (Romans 1: 28 says ..and even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge God gave them over to a REPOBATE mind to do those things which are not convenient). I don’t know how many fathers can stand and watch their kids doing all the ills of BBA becos of 100 Million $. The only reason why most people watch BBA is because of selfishness and a medium to gratify sensual appetite. The unfortunate thing is that our kids are no longer focusing on what is important to life but seeking after easy success. I hope Nigeria is going through 2nd Colonialsm, becos these days anything that comes from the so called developed countries is the vougue, even when its sensless. I know if some of us were alive durring slave trade we would have justify the acts. Gos will save Nigeria and Africa in general. The Europes and Americans are morally DOOMED. |

Nigerians and hypocrisy go hand in hand. In a country where 17 year old girls see having a sugar daddy as a normal part of growing up; where rape has a maximum penalty of 2 years imprisonment; where lecturers demanding and receiving sex from students in exchange for passing grades is seen as normal runss (note that I did not specify the gender of the students or lecturers); where you can find pornographic materials on most smart phones; where government officials host lavish parties where anything goes; and we are here complaining about a reality TV show (which by the way is rated 18) showing half baked pornographic scenes. We need to grow up and face the reality of the present day. 2 Likes |

GraphicsPlus: Big brother Africa is a glaring example of the extent of depravity being pushed to African societies. The question to be asked is if it is part of a western agenda or a South African plan to destroy the fabric of African societies because it goes against all the grain of Africanness. With the west aggressively pushing the homosexual agenda across the world, we might soon have a reality show of homosexuals and lesbians under the guise of equality./ Above is very thoughtful. Your write up is worth reflecting on. I keep asking myself the question: Why do people watch this show? I asked a female friend of mine who is an ardent follower of the show why she watch so-called Big Brother Africa, she was very incongruous in her response. She confessed she learnt no moral lesson from the show. she only relished the lewd exhibitions of the house mates. She just love to be entertained by the house mates. |
