and abusive.. That her mouth na razor blade. Chai!!!
Two of you dey ment!

Nini always minded her business except if you come at her first..

One thing about her is she won't be the first to attack you.

Lastly, she ain't a classist..

I think that was what I first noticed about her tbh before other personalities, such as her honesty. She was the only girl who really bonded with Arin in the house. Even though I had admitted that the Friendship wasn't doing her game great.

She bonded seamlessly with Whitemoney despite not being aware of the happening outside like Queen.

She had no problem with no one except you come at her. She seems to love to checkmate bullies tho grin while protecting the weak..

See my three babies.

Esther, Lilo and Nini

A lawyer, dietician and an Economist.

What do they have in common?

They're all honest, transparent and blunt!

They ain't 2 faced!

They're down to earth too.

They're gorgeous beauties..

They're like phoenixes despite the unwarranted hate!

God bless their hustles...

Funny enough what always attract me apart from the unwarranted haters, is the eyes.. I love beautiful eyes. Lol. All of them have got beautiful eyes. Then beautiful fingers (Lilo has got very beautiful fingers). And then gorgeous petite body. They're all petite!

Typical Gemini placement.. eyes and fingers we love grin

And of course, their personalities such as openness, realness and honesty. They also don't go about attacking people unprovoked like some did on the show... They ain't malicious.. I don't like people that are sneaky and 2 faced Tbh.

Of course I like some other housemates along the lines.. God bless them..
The koko be don't hate some housemates unwarranted hence I would Stan harder grin

Funny enough I didn't like how Maria was hated for her wildcard role both inside and outside the house. Sympathised with Pere as her partner in crime for awhile but then again, I started sympathising with Whitemoney cos tbh, he was indeed selfless. He would even wash some housemates plates sef. (Nini actually opened my eyes in some ways and I stanned her harder. The koko be don't hate housemates unwarranted, especially those you think you could make as scapegoats unprovoked/unwarranted just because some believed they don't have much fans to defend them.. That will make me stan harder.

The killer of fatai aborode is a yoruba man.

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Pa Olawuwo has been remanded in police custody over the gruesome murder of Dr. Fatai Aborode in Igangan, Ibarapa North Local Government area of Oyo State.

LordReed:
Just like how the sugar is not the problem but the way you consume it. We eat a lot of refined sugar and it is becoming obvious that it is addictive. If you are going to say tobacco is a sin because of addiction and harm then you'll have to consider that refined sugars are also addictive and can cause harm, will you now consider consuming refined sugar a sin?
Sugar is needed in the body. That's the end product of carbohydrates and it helps to yield energy for every life process in the body. Even people with diabetes still needs sugar to power their life process. The only difference is they lack the hormone, insulin which helps in the assimilation of these sugar into the body. Hence it's either they take in insulin or find alternative food.

Same can't be said for smoking which ain't even needed at all cos it offset the alignment in our body. It's not good for the linings in our lungs, throats and our stomachs. It wears it away. It's carcinogenic too.

Abegi.. Even it's written on the cigarette box that smokers are liable to die young. So don't say no one warned you.

Your sister sef. Na wa for her.

As much as the guy is to be blamed, she's to be blamed too. Some people sha. Dem go dey say dey love whereas na stupidity dey do them.

That being said, I think your sister is trapped. I mean she's got no money, no phone nor anything to reach out. She's trapped under the guy due to the fact that she can only depend him. She shouldn't have eloped with him to a far place in the first place. That's why I said some people are stupid!

Nini looks like Kourtney too and they both do the same hairstyles. Black and she always ties it to the back or sometime let it down... Like Kourtney..

However, if she made her hair like Taylor's, she can easily pass as her. Taylor always covers her frontal head or part of it. She's also blonde.

Her gestures, facial expressions and stature reminds me of Taylor swift. I think there was one interview I watched.. Vogue interview kinda and their expressions look so similar. Even with the shaking of their legs and when gazing..

Nah. Of course Nini is tiny but still shapely. Her tiny waistline and flat tummy accentuate her curves over her small hips and bum. Did you see her when they were imitating sex positions during the game? Despite the fact that she was in a pyjamas, she looked shapely albeit she looked tiny grin..

Check her bbnaija tik tok video too.

Nini fared well after all.

Despite all the decamping from several angles grin..

Her percentage was still close to the people in front of her..

She had a huge percentage in the early week tho..

I understand some Whitemoney fans voted for her but then again, Whitemoney fans voted for several housemates, not just her, including the likes of Emmanuel, Princess, Tega, Saskay (who was voted by most neutral because she was swapped for a veto)..


Tbh, Nini was actually a top dog in the early weeks tbh.

She fell off because of several unwarranted decamping. Saskay team especially.. they dragged Nini unnecessarily because Nini was the first option for several guys.. Even Saskay was dropping her own toxic conspiracy about Nini unprovoked for her team to drag Nini unprovoked. Saga's team even joined them to drag Nini sef. then same Saskay's team started decamping both of them..

Then there was Pere's team who's always had it in for Nini since she always defended Whitemoney grin

There were emmarose shippers who were trying to put down one gumbody ship for their own gumbody ship grin

There was Angel team who dragged Nini cos of the conversation that happened at the executive even though it wasn't Nini who started the conversation. Moreover, Nini didn't mention much but mostly listened except chipping in with what Michael stated about Angel and she already repeated it in front of both Angel and Michael.

Then unnecessary drag because Saga and Nini were always together. Was blamed for most of Saga's mistakes such as lateness to the diary, nonchalance as a dhoh etc.. she culped the blames, got dragged, got punishment and even got a strike sef grin yet was still defending Saga and watching over him to prevent him from getting a third strike grin

Then the fight with Cross got overblown...

Nini fought a good fight Tbh and was still close till the end..

And still standing tall today..

U are not sure yet lol cheesy cheesy
Well they talked about all sheepahs... lol They ain't claiming anyone tbh..

One thing about sheepahs is if you collect money/gifts, you must give them aww moments in return or else grin

I can see why some do run away from it grin

And if the ship capsized, they must find one party to blame for it cos they become emotionally attached after awhile, especially if you consistently give them aww moments to hold on to...

Are they bad? Not totally but just pray one doesn't have some toxic ones among them grin..

Even Esther was still dragged for not coming out to collect sheepahs money... Their sheepahs page back then said some people asked Esther and Frodd to come out to collect some sheepahs stuff and while Frodd was willing, Esther no gree come out. Lol... grin

Esther was always hiding tbh grin

I think Frodd got some for his birthday tho.

Sheepahs are coconut heads! grin my Esther suffer am from dem hands and Frodd's fans. My innocent girl cry

Sheepahs also dragged Prince for collecting sheepahs gifts.. Prince had several ships too, if I recall well... Lol..

Just leave my Emma out of any rubbish undecided At liquor's age she should know better tongue cheesy
Yeah. Liquorose is old enough. I just don't want her to look like someone desperate out there.. cos the way she was answering the question for him was funny grin

Look at Lilo for example. People had said she looked desperate with Eric even though we didn't know Eric was the one telling her stuff such as he told her that he saw no other person apart from Lilo after Lilo asked him to go for whoever he liked in the house. This she told him to his face during the interview they both had and he couldn't deny it.

Lilo really made a u turn out there and Eric deserved it tbh cos he was untrustworthy. What he said and did after Lilo left just few days after Lilo left was something else. Even Kiddwaya who was a known flirt didn't switch to another lady as soon as Erica left the house like Eric did.. Lilo is still cool with him tho. I would also say Lilo is subtly ruthless. She's not vindictive tho. Her own kind of ruthlessness is detachment which I love. No need for drama or negativity. Just pure vibes and detachment. She's got her self respect intact and I love it for her. When she wanna detach, she does it easily and the person must have given her a reason to.. And I love it tbh.

As for Emmanuel and Liquorose tho, it's a good thing they left the house together. However l want Liquorose to let him answer his questions. Not just for people out there but for her alone to guage.

Abeg go sit down!
When people with fanbase are talking,you and your fellow 2% fanbase shouldn't talk!
Nini is different from your cloutchasing Angel who was having sexual stuff with several guys!

I love the way Nini played her game. Maybe she could have added little flirting here or there but Saga didn't like it. She played a clean game.

That was a bikini slip up. Nini was still inside water. She quickly dived inside water the moment she had the slip. What we can see is no different from the picture below.. it's nothing..

Standing succulent fresh firm breast kiss

She's far better than your Pere who was doing stuff with several girls. The pretender guy yet had the nerve to talk about Angel grin How's he different from Angel. The Hypocritical pretender! Lol..

Gbam!! And what I loved most about her was she never played victim to manipulate viewers!
Yeah she was herself.

I mean we all saw her ruthless self on the show. Outside of it, it ain't different. Lol.

She really showed Ike pepper cheesy

Ike deserves tho.. grin

Funny thing was Ike didn't even do as much as Emmanuel flirted on the show. Moreover, Ike was a major factor in her win whereas Liquorose was the main reason Emmanuel got his fans.

That being said, I don't have a problem with Liquorose being cool with him. However she should have allowed him to answer those probing questions by himself, not answer for him. It's like she is the one scared of him leaving hence always protecting him whenever these questions are asked.. She should rather allow him to answer these questions for her to guage his mind. Common! Even the Emmanuel implied something like he's not in any ship.. He doesn't really care about the ship tbh. Whether he's in it or not, he already got what he wanted.. We don't even know what he told Angel sef grin

Mtcheew!!!

These set of housemates are so fake..Not blunt at all!! They lie alot in their interviews ..Except for Boma, Maria, Cross and few others wey dey serve am hot as dem do for house!!!
Emma's personality didn't change though cool but most are sounding so different like say no be same people we watch again undecided
U have to play there cassettes to catch them cheesy

Ebuka u better gather enough receipts to fire them at the reunion before they shock ucheesy
Watched some.. I was just shaking my head at Liquorose especially. The way she was defending Emmanuel and his flirting tho. Lol.. When he said I would say this is "black"... Like a toddler grin

She should sha shine her eyes wella. Before they used her to shine.

Mercy is still the most ruthless female I have ever seen on the show. The way she switched up tho grin

At first, she was playing the naive humble homely girl but towards the middle of the show, she became vindictive and power hungry. Lol. She was always angry whenever people won ahead of her in any task and would even curse their asses out grin

She really switched up. Even Ike felt the burn! Good thing people already had it in for the Tacha who was playing the arrogance bully card at the beginning.

Between herself and Tacha thou, any of them winning was fine regardless cos they've got similar trait in anyway. Just that Mercy wasn't as rash like Tacha.

What I was driving at was Mercy was ruthless. Ike only flirted with Tacha for example and she dealt with his ass. She took no prisoners grin

She didn't allow anyone to use her to shine..

In retrospect, I love her game. She was always in control..

Of course she ain't perfect but when it comes to dealing with anyone who hurt her, she was ruthless.

Even my Esther got burnt unwarranted grin

Just because She felt Esther was with Frodd when she should have been with her.. That was after she had a problem with Frodd. Well, Frodd had no friend at that time and had fought with almost all the housemates, including Ike and Elozonam who were Mercy and Diane's guys). Only Esther was keeping him company.

Also during the whole Diane, Nelson and Esther debacle in the early week. Mercy was kinda judgemental cos she believed Esther should be with Frodd who had been telling Mercy that he liked Esther. It wasn't even up to one week yet people were already forcing Frodd down Esther's throat.. Same Frodd who was cuddling and kissing Isiloma before she left? Just because he was crying one yeye tears.

Meanwhile Diane was cuddling with Tuoyo while flirting with sir Dee yet still wanting Nelson. If Diane could be afforded the chance of having several guys, why couldn't Esther? Not like anyone brought anyone from their papa house into the show. The question is what right did Diane have to flirt & cuddle with several guys while Esther shouldn't? Esther wasn't even leading on any guys sef.. She simply told off Frodd who was acting thirsty towards her and had gone to her bed unsolicited after Isiloma left..

Esther wasn't two timing anyone nor telling Frodd to keep making efforts with her nor was she sending people to go meet him. She didn't lead on two guys at the same time. She couldn't even play two guys at a time sef and that's why I like her. Her transparency. Eventually, she saved same Frodd from disqualification in the end sef and was his only friend who always defended his ass, after he had fought with the whole house.. That was what got Mercy angry because she believed Esther left her for Frodd, after both Mercy and Esther had already made up. She said a lot about Esther unwarranted tbh grin... I think they're good now tho.

What I'm driving at is Mercy is very ruthless and takes no prisoner.. If anyone hurts her, be ready for the aftermath. She doesn't tolerate nonsense! cheesy

If not for her,who knew Sammie?
I'm sure Angel messed up Nini,that's why she cant shine without Saga!
Unam ikot!
Lmao.

I was talking about Sammie's baddie look in contrast to his game.. Like a tongue in cheek comment cheesy

Nini had a huge personality in the house. Her natural curly hair is a character itself grin

As a matter of fact, her hair depicts her natural fierce blunt self who says the truth without mincing words and always stick up for justice. She's down to earth too. Very funny girl too.

Only thing that was caged by Saga was her flirting game cos we all saw how he was so angry after seeing Nini on Cross' lap. Lol... Himself and Pere drove away several guys from her and caged her. That was it. She's still getting used to being around other guys..

Anyway, she's shining out there.

She's got her own fashion boutique on lock already

Her shoe game is always on point.. She's got the modelling look..

Her natural long curly hair alone is an endorsement itself smiley

Likewise her butter milk skin kiss

And she's a phenomenal effortless actress.

Not fair at all, i watched every episode of the buzz and Toke does that everytime. Even when some of her guests tries to defend Pere, it doesn't sit well with her.
Why wouldn't Ebuka ask about him about Maria? That was his game. Common!

My Nini could have hit a jackpot with Whitemoney too but Saga wasn't in between cheesy

She almost did tbh.

I mean even though Nini was a friend of Whitemoney and had severally defended him, they weren't always together, she was rather with Saga most of the times. There was even a time she was dancing with Whitemoney yet Saga kept cutting in between them grin

At times, I had selfishly wanted out Saga in order to ensure Nini would have more time with the likes of Whitemoney and Cross which would have helped her game cheesy

But then again, man proposes but God disposes cheesy

That being said, I'm happy for Nini. I loved how she played the game regardless. She was transparent, loyal and a stand up beautiful funny girl. I couldn't have asked for more! She is a phenomenal talented natural actress too!
