As this year’s Big Brother Africa (BBA) television reality show comes
to an end. The anticipations about who will take home the princely
$300,000 (about N48 million) grand prize on Sunday, 25 August, are as
high as never before.
With last week’s exit of dreadlocked South Africa’s Angelo Collins, who was one of the favourites for the grand prize, and Ethiopia’s Bimp, the top 5 for the final looks like this: the two Nigerians – Beverly Osu and Melvin Oduah, Ghana’s Elikem, Namibia’s Dillish, and Zambia’s Cleo.
The five have survived 88 days in the House and now need every vote possible to get their hands on the much sought after grand cash prize.
On 26 May, 28 housemates from 14 countries entered the Big Brother House in Johannesburg, South Africa for a 91-day of fun and entertainment in a secluded environment. But as the end of The Chase is just days away, social media, especially Facebook and Twitter, have been abuzz with fans getting creative with their support for their favourite housemates.
Whoever wins on Sunday would hug instant fame and fortune, joining the likes of Nigeria’s Kevin Pam Chuwang (2009), Uti Nwachukwu (2010), Karen Igho (2011) and South Africa’s Keagan Petersen, who was last year’s winner of the show.
The two Nigerian representatives have been enjoying massive votes from Nigerians and other Africans. Melvin seems to be the favourite, but Beverly is also attracting attention from fans and laying a huge claim to the grand prize in spite of the opprobrium she attracted from some quarters over her controversial intimate encounters with Angelo in the house.
