• As much as everyone who goes into the Big Brother Naija house wants to win, it appears that making it into the house alone can be enough.

• Fans have watched the contestants grow from regular people to big celebrities that get paid to make appearances, little wonder they now want in on the action. Video clips and photographs from the last auditions shook social media because of the turnout. Nigerians came out en masse, from far and near, for an opportunity to be in the Big Brother house. Security officials at the venues even had a hard time managing the crowd.
