It’s officially the first day of Big Brother Naija with both male and female housemates in the game, and it’s already turning into a whirlwind. The dynamic has completely shifted now that the house is full, and the once-clear strategies are already falling apart. When it was just the ladies, they had agreed to ignore the guys when they entered. But that plan didn’t last long.
Since then, we’ve seen housemates bonding in groups and pairs. Koyin and Mide spent some quality time together while eating breakfast (late comers), while Faith and Joanna had a long chat on the swing in the garden.
The first official wager meeting also took place today, led by interim HoH, Jason Jae. It took him a while to read the brief before he was called to the Diary Room. After his initial attempt to read, Imisi asked for clarification, prompting Gigi Jasmine to re-read it. When things still weren’t clear, Sabrina stepped in and gave it another go.
Despite Jason Jae’s title, Otegatemporarily took over the meeting with his flood of ideas. He began assigning roles and tasks, but not everyone was on board with his grand vision. Ibifubara attempted to steer the group back to the brief, but Otega’s buzzing energy made it hard to get a word in. Eventually, Doris and Koyin spoke up and shared their thoughts, even though it felt like Otega was dominating the space.
