Abeg, who get groundnut? Roasted plantain is available.

I detest people that bleach and view them as having self esteem issues. Which girl skin fine pass Diane skin for that house? Imagine Diane decides she wants to look like Venita and start bleaching her beautiful brown skin

XXML33:
How will the season be sweet when you guys didn't vote for interesting personalities like Joe and KimOprah, but are wasting money on Delawoods like Mike and Cindy.

good point there Roman numerals, good point

NgeneUkwenu:
I pity IPOB Pigs!

Congrats Lauretta, when are they inaugurating u guys Ngene?

For a moment, i thought the Elliane kiss would happen when Dianne was on Elo's bed staring into his beautiful eyes

At some point i saw Elo raise his hand to pat Diane's shoulder or whatever, but he withdrew.

I saw that tension sha. But they only locked hands. .

Dianne has left Elo's bed with parting words " I hope this doesn't affect our friendship, Goodnight"

Manipulator Dianne, I hail

Elo is likely gay, i wrote that yesterday but few took it seriously. If he isn't gay then he is a 30+ virgin

Elo exudes some serious gay vibes. Anybody else noticed it? As close as he is to Diane(and we know that closeness brings affection), I haven't ever seen him show the slightest romantic gesture to the dark skinned stunner. And for some reason he just looks to me like the gay guy on that Delta Soap advert

this guy's head, limbs and torso r so disproportionate. Good singer though

Ovokoo:
You probably know me with my other ID.

ok. Meanwhile this your Ovoko sounds Urhobo

Ovokoo:
There's an Igboid group in Rivers state that is related to Ukwuani/Ndokwa. I think it's Ndoni. I'm not sure though.

You r 100% correct, the Ndonis are on the other side of the Niger and have very close affinity with Aboh, same language, similar culture and hundreds of years of inter marriage. Peter Odili, former governor of R/S is an Ndoni man. How did u know much about that area?

Ovokoo:
Aren't you from Ukwuani/Ndokwa or is it the equivalent i Rivers state?

I'm from there but i don't understand what u mean by Rivers state equivalent

shizzle11:
Not interested in this arguement thou but i feel i should point this out...the guy is right. Is delta a tribe? Arent there diffeent ethnicities in delta state? Or are there no Igbos in delta?

Fyi, Elozonam is Igbo and is from delta state

Safarigirl is Igbo and she's from delta state. So i think you need to mute on this

Not every tribe that speak the igboid language in Delta identify themselves as Igbos, infact, most do not identify as Igbos. The Ikas and Ndokwas/Ukwuani's don't see themselves as Igbos. Those around the Asaba area would identify as Igbos though

not cool

Dansuqi:
My brother thank you for this brief expo.i have said it here once that efe is not really warri,he has no connection there.his lga is not even in warri.omashola is the real warri fellow,original warri from one of the three warri lgas and itsekiri the real indigenes of warri.urhobos are not as deeply rooted in warri as the itsekiris

There are many deep rooted Warri Urhobos e.g in the Igbudu, Ekurede Urhobo, Edjeba areas etc but it's a fact that most Itsekiris are Warri ghan ghan. You very hardly see Itsekiris in Warri metropolis living outside Warri, infact all my years growing in Effurun I cannot remember any Itsekiri family in my area. I only got to meet Itsekiri guys in a big scale during my years in Dom Domingos College which happens to be in Warri

Lauryn41:
He does represent us well

He is better than efe

Na better agbero he be

Lol. Efe isn't Warri na. To me, definition of being Warri is either one who has lived in Warri or is from Warri by lineage. Efe is Urhobo but not from warri, and has never lived in Warri. I bet u Efe cannot name 2 streets in Warri. For the same reason I am surprised Omatsola assumed Venita to be warri solely because she is Urhobo. I know Venita did not grom in Warri and I doubt it if she is from the Urhobo warri area.

Lauryn41:
Yea ,I live in ugbuwangue

cool. Do u think Omatsola is repping Warri well. I feel he acts more like a Warri woman than a warri man. Your take?

Lauryn41:
Seyi hands down
Can't date a cigar man
Cancer is real

Do u really live in Warri? I dey stay Jakpe rd

Tacha:


One of the early favourites to win this season and will definitely stroll to the finale. Her primary 'characteristic' is her seeming confidence which any discerning eye will notice come from a deep seated lack of self confidence, put in other words, she is overcompensating for her lack of self worth.

Her communication isn't good in English language which forces her to use short sentences always using the cliché, thingy. At the beginning of the show she wouldn't even talk for fear of not making mistakes. She has built some confidence and expresses herself more now. The show will definitely help her grammar, so win or lose, she will gain something.

Ms Tacha definitely came into the house with some serious backing from the outside which may take her far but will not win her the price unless she builds a fan base outside her pre-BBN fan base

Take this to the bank, Mercy will win BBN 2019

safarigirl:
Who is a celeb?

If Venita can count as a celeb, Kim and Tacha are celebs as well. Highest, na different grade, but celebs still.

Celebrity is the fame and public attention accorded by the mass media to individuals or groups or, occasionally, animals, but is usually applied to the persons or groups of people (celebrity couples, families, etc.) themselves who receive such a status of fame and attention.

Note fame and public attention accorded by the mass media. Which public attention had been accorded Kim by mass media before big brother? Who cared if she existed. Tacha trended once for tattooing Davido's face on her boobs and that was it.

Your interpretation of the word celebrity may be wrong

creolehunt:
Una can hype people so much that their helpers would even think they are already made.

In what planet is this girl bigger than the show? Does she have 30m in her account?

Prior to this show, I have never seen nor hears of her. BBN made that possible. One would think you're referring to an A-list celeb. She is beautiful, yeah. But that's just about it. For all I care she is a 'society girl', just like mercy. Even as a society girl sef, Does she even measure up to Tonto?

Even for 'socialite' level, does she even measure up to Tonto?

Seyi? Who is Seyi? What has he done for himself? Pray tell.

Seyi represents something bigger than himself. There are certain things he will think twice before he does them. The boy na Awolowo grand pikin, his action in that house can affect his family name. Imagine Obama's daughter going in for American big brother

Eeghe:
Well I don’t know her at all, and never read anything about her at all, and I “do” Nairaland
Mike is a “world renowned athlete with his own cigar brand and all the modeling gigs”, Omashola has walked many international modeling runways, Ella actually did win money and a 3rd/4th runner up position on Project Fame and has songs that play on air
With these people here, there is no reason Venita is too big for this show.

You gave me the easy reply (the one I am most comfortable with)
The mixed race stuff would have sent me on a mental slavery preaching rant

I knew u were waiting for me to type mixed race so u can use me to catch trips. Haha. She isn't even the only mixed race in d house, Jeff is also

safarigirl:
Tacha is also a celebrity, KimOprah is also a celebrity. None of them are A-list, but they were on the show, so, me I don't see why Venita is too big for the show and it will demarket her. She has been out of the game for so long, and this show will at least bring her back to the memories of people.

There is such a thing as a has-been even as a celeb, and has-beens are not above anything

non of those people you mentioned was a celeb before before big brother. Popular maybe, but certainly not celebs

Eeghe:
Is she bigger than the show because she is mixed race?
Or because she has been married before? Or because she is a celebrity? (I have never seen or heard of her prior to Tuesday though)
The answer will determine my response to your whole post
Humour me if you can

Because she is a celebrity, not A-list, but a celeb still. The news of her divorce earlier in d year was on every leading Nigerian blogs including nairaland, that on it's own is a confirmation of her celeb status

has anyone else noticed that Jeff looks like Indian film police?

Venita:

A mixed race beauty who finds herself in an environment she shouldn't be in. The girl/woman is bigger than the show except it's a celebrity edition. I guess her years in an unhappy marriage has destroyed her self belief and landed her inside that house. Her situation is same as Seyi, but Seyi is very conscious of who he is, an Awolowo. Both of them will be diminished by d show no matter the outcome

wman:
You might be innocent but GEJ isn't innocent. If GEJ had being a good president that performed well, shunned corruption and worked had to transform this country, no one will vote for Buhari.

Jonathan shares part of the blame for letting Nigerians fall for the scam called Buhari.

zombie, you are still saying this corruption rubbish dey used to deceive u

nadesh:
Am disappointed with the new people. Only Venita and Elo will impress. Cindy is invisible, Joe looks lost and Enkay has problems with her body or self esteem, she hides herself in jackets all day and said she cannot enter the jauzzi because she cannot swim.

swim for jacuzzi? Is she a tadpole?

Threebear:
I can't believe anyone takes the Greek alphabet thing and his vapid updates seriously .

Those are Roman numerals, not greek alphabet. Greek alphabets are alpha, beta, delta, gamma.........

bigpicture001:
I stringly disaggre with the naija losing over 400 billion dollars to coruption since independence....

Na lie..naija's total oil revenue since oil discovery is valued at about 400billion dollars!

Do u think it's only through crude oil Nigeria earns money?

Ike: we have had light for one month straight, that's a miracle

Sanromeo:
Technically, they're eating a carcass because that whale would have been dead before it washed ashore. Hunger is deadly.

if it was carcass, it won't bleed into the water. Most likely caught alive

I think Diane is the prettiest female left in that house, and the second overall after Kim. However, a friend argued with me that Esther is prettier than Diane. I find Esther very unattractive.
Wetin men think?

Mercy

No Big brother housemate has grown on me like Mercy. First day in the house I thought she was complete shi.t. She came across as a cheap olosho whose best days on the job were far gone. Her crude Igbotic accent didn't help and it looked like she was going to be intimidated by the returnees and ajebutter housemates. I gave her Zero Chance.

Fast forward to today, she has held her own, made r opinion heard, been a generous giver of her wigs to the girls. She has also been unexpectedly focused in the game so far. I don't watch often, but i haven't ever seen her gossiping or trying to pull her fellow lady down, infact, she took the naive Diane who badly needed an ally in the house in.

In a fair world, Mercy would win this season
