The just concluded third season of the reality TV show, Big Brother Naija "Double Wahala", was no doubt a money-spinner for the organisers and sponsors.

The host of the show, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, revealed that over 170 million votes were cast in the course of the season, 30 million of it coming in the final week.

If all the votes had been cast by sms from Nigeria, it would have meant that the organisers raked in N5.1 billion from voting alone, as each sms cost N30.

But the managing director, Multichoice Nigeria, John Ugbe, maintained that 90 per cent of the total figure came from online voting.

He said, "There has been a lot of focus on the figure 170 million, but to set the record straight; 170million votes came from 49 African countries, and more than 90 per cent came from online voting.

Their business but lack of respect for Nigeria. Its BBN not BBSA

what respect?... you get even one hour electricity for ya country?...did you experience anything like power failure throughout the period the event lasted.?...if they try hosting it here in Nigeria to give Nigeria the respect you are talking about,they would have taken loan from the bank to pay Miracle his money or probably be owing him as all the money they made would have gone on diesel to power there power generating sets....so be wise...!!! and respect ya self..!!!

Why do I think the topic and the content of the news does not correspond?? Seems more like bbnaija voting news
