Big Brother Naija 2020: The Fuss, Expectations, Audition And Rewards wow


• Big brother Naija is undoubtedly the biggest reality TV show in Africa. The show is four seasons strong with winners like Katung, Efe, Miracle and most recently, Mercy. The show boasts of fans scattered across the continent (and the world) but at the same time, it has received a lot a backlash from critics. They think that the show only promotes immorality and the quest for quick wealth. For this reason, The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) in July, wrote a petition to the President Muhammadu Buhari to stop the airing of the just-concluded edition.

• From every season of the show, one fact that remains is that Big Brother Naija is a great platfo

• rm for contestants and brands alike. Contestants are launched into the limelight with brands lining up to partner with them. This is a clear indication that the show is not solely for entertainment but an opportunity to 'blow' if the right cards are played.




• 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. All you need is to worm your way into the hearts of Nigerians. This is evident in the lives and careers of people like Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Tobi Bakre, and Cynthia "Cee-C" Nwadiora. Recent faves like Mike, Khafi and Tacha also belong to this category.

• 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.

• The 2020 auditions are expected to be even bigger than that of 2019. Everyone wants a better life and if sitting in a house to entertain Nigerians for 99 days will change their lives, best believe they will sign up.




• There are a lot of expectations as well on the organizers to bring premium content in the next season. Big Brother Naija is known for unexpected twists in the game and fans around the world cannot wait to see what is in store for 2020.




• The prize for the next season is yet to be announced but drawing from the pattern in previous seasons, it will definitely be huge. In 2006, Katung won a hundred thousand dollars, Efe went home with twenty five million Naira in 2017, and Miracle won forty-five million Naira. The season 4 winner, Mercy Lambo, got a prize worth sixty million Naira. There's obviously an upward progression which means the prize for 2020 will be juicier.

• Fingers are crossed and everyone is waiting for the new season to hit the screens in 2020. In all of this, one thing that remains is that the organizers are up for a challenge to satisfy anticipating fans and churn out the next batch of celebrities.

Welcome to UROHI kingdom Esanland

HISTORY NOTE: HISTORY OF URHOHI (UROHI) MADE KNOWN. It will serve a useful purpose to remember right at the onset that there are two parts to every Esan district: the royal family and the common people. They were quite distinct, for nearly all the ancient ruling houses came from Benin City or its suburbs. The head of the ruling houses was and still is, the ONOJIE, who with his family, servants and brothers inhabited EGUARE, the administrative CAPITAL of the district. Another important thing an enquirer must take notice of is the use of the word BROTHER by Esan people. It can mean anything from a male blood relation to a very good friend. Secondly OBA's SON can mean a BINI and, in fact, it was recently, a common thing for any Bini, outside the city, to describe himself as the OBA's SON! HISTORY: The correct name is UROI Until the later part of the thirties, Urhohi which the then British Administration referred to as Urhohi Village group had no intercourse with even...

And “Hurricane Oshiomhole” sweeps through Bayelsa, Kogi, By Patrick Obahiagbon

n meteorological lore, hurricanes – cyclone-strength winds – are usually named after females. But an exception was seemingly made on Saturday, when “Hurricane Oshiomhole” that sacked the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from the maritime state of Bayelsa made landfall. This time round, elated locals gave it a man’s name, in sheer awe of the comprehensiveness and clinical finish of the change it wrought. Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, former governor of Edo State and the national chairman of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC), is the choreographer who scripted the necessary, nimble political masterpiece that has considerably revamped his allegedly even though spuriously trumped up sagging standing within the party’s high command. Further inland in Kogi State, both friends and foes who felt the hurricane’s strength would have waned discovered they misread the stern resolve of the diminutive dynamite from Edo State, in charge of proceedings. Oshiomhole’s retention of Ko...
