Meanwhile, housemates continue to keep viewers entertained on the Big Brother “Shine Ya Eye” Season 6 show.
The second week of the show started with a usual Head of House dice game on Monday, requiring all housemates to contest for the HOH position, except Peace and Yousef who won last week and were not valid to contest again yet.
Boma emerged as the first male head of house of this season and he chose Jackie B as his deputy.
The Shine Ya Eye season had its first nomination during the week, leaving Whitemoney, Yousef, Yerins, Beatrice and Niyi up to possibly leave the game at the end of the eviction show on August 8.
Although the housemates were not given a “wager task” this week, Big Brother provided lots of group tasks accompanied with cash gifts to the housemates that emerged as winners.
The housemate entertained the viewers with undiluted “gbas gbos” between themselves together with a wild performance at their Saturday live party.
