Big Brother Season 8, tagged “The Chase” is on! The official opening
ceremony started with the performance of the jam of all jams Khona performed by Mafikizolo. Nigerian online personality and the host of the show, IK Osakioduwa came in on a power bike. He was fully kitted in leather and the crowd cheered thunderously. Comedians, Tumie Morake from South Africa and ChurchHill
from Kenya were invited on stage to go into both houses to give us a
sneak peek! We got a chance to see the houses before the housemates got
in. Tumie helped herself to the shower and got to popping champagne
while in the tub. Tumie went into the Diamond house and Churchill gave
us the first insight into the Ruby house. The first Big Brother Africa
was in 2003 and 10 years later, Big Brother Africa still has the power
to hold Africa spellbound.
As soon as the housemates were settled
in the house, IK reminded them to start getting to know one another
immediately because the first set of evictions is next Sunday. We can’t
wait for the game to begin.
We will bring you all the interesting scoop on the housemates and their time in the house as the show goes on.
