Big Brother Naija week one:
no evictions but ‘Strike One’
for #KSquared
Seven days into Big Brother 3, the housemates got their first taste of
reckoning at the first live show. Hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu,
Sunday’s show brought with it the usual blend of intrigue, suspense and
entertainment, as Kcee, the Limpopo crooner, entertained studio guests
and viewers at home.
Soothed by the absence of evictions for this week, the housemates got to
share their experiences thus far in the house. After last week’s pairings,
the housemates were once again tasked with competing to become the
next Head of House. Bam Bam, Cee C, Tobi and Teddy A came out
victorious, meaning that teams Cebi and Bamteddy will have to battle for
the HOH crown. Another pair caught in the spotlight albeit for the wrong
reasons was the dynamic quo of Khloe and K Brule, otherwise known as
K-Square, who were handed their first strike by Big Brother following
their unruly behavior. Khloe was able to single handedly tie herself to
every controversy in the Big Brother house with her confrontational
approach, but it was K Brule who escalated the duo’s troubles by jumping
off a balcony, an action that triggered an emotional response from fellow
housemate Bitto. Biggie handed K-Square a strike which ultimately is a
step closer for them to get booted out of the Big Brother house; they were
also disqualified from the HOH contest that took place shortly after.
Viewers were thrilled by Kcee, who performed his hit singles ‘Pull Over’,
‘Limpopo’ and more. After sharing his usual dose of wise words with the
housemates, Ebuka let the
viewers in on a twist: there will
be fake nominations on
Monday night, and no evictions
next week Sunday. The
housemates are however
oblivious of the development
and this guarantees even more Kloe and Kbrule
excitement for the viewers.
