Popular Nollywood actress, Nnaji Charity has taken to Instagram to claim that most female housemates of the Big Brother Naija reality Tv are usually fortified with “Kayamata” before going into house.
Kayamata are herbs or potions that act as sex or love enhancers, however many people are of the opinion that these portions are charms.
According to the actress, “Kayamata” is the reason Ozo was obsessed with Nengi throughout his stay in the house.
She wrote,
“Most of all this girls that goes into the Bbn house are usually fortified with kayamata before going into the house. OZO SORRY MY BROTHER, next time be very carefully”.
Big Brother Naija is a reality show in which contestants live in an isolated house. The winner is expected to walk away with ₦85 million grand prize.
The BBNaija lockdown edition opened the house to twenty housemates in July and 10 of the housemates were females.
The female housemates in the Lockdown edition of the show are; Dorathy, Erica, Ka3na, Kaisha, Lilo, Lucy, Nengi, Tolanibaj, Vee and Wathoni.
The management of former BBNaija housemate, Erica Nweledim have called out one Mr. Chidi Mike, the man who promised her N2million and a car.
Mike Premium, who identified himself as a talent manager, took to his social media page to reveal that Chidi hasn’t fulfilled his promise to her.
In his words ;
“He promised to give Erica N2m and a car but now he’s changing everything. He said he’ll give Erica N500k and she will need to sign a contract, then the car will come in next year and he will balance her the remaining N1.5m later,” Mike said, telling Chidi to delete the post of his promise to Erica so as not to mislead people.
Nigerian socio-political commentator, Reno Omokri has challenged viewers of the ongoing Big Brother Naija lockdown show to mention one moral lesson they have learnt from the show.
According to him, Nigerians have lost focus from reality. They are focusing their efforts on campaigning for BBNaija housemates, instead of directing the energy towards other productive endeavours.
You use your profile to campaign for your #BBNaija housemate. You even wear their branded T-Shirt and hold watch parties. Wrong focus. If you had put in this same effort towards selling a product, or promoting your business, you could have been a millionaire example of sell to excel by now!
Name one moral lesson you have learnt from Big Brother? Cite one example of how it has affected your personal development. Fuel and electric prices were raised, and the Naira was devalued, while you were distracted by BBNaija. By the time BBN is over, and you are back to reality, you will realise that your sanity has been affected by the vanity you followed with clarity!

An Indian man who has 5 daughters, allegedly slit open his pregnant wife’s stomach in a bid to confirm the gender of the baby out of desperation for a male child.
The 43 year old man, identified as Pannalal, attacked his pregnant wife, Anita Devi with a sickle on Saturday night, Sept 19 at their home in Budaun in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, leaving her in a pool of blood.
Anita’s family told investigators that the husband attacked and sliced open her stomach to check the gender of the child.
Anita’s younger brother, Ravi Kumar said, “My brother-in-law used to beat up my sister often for giving birth to five daughters. Even my parents tried to resolve the problem, but no one had ever imagined that he would take such a cruel step.”
According to Time of India.com, Anita has been admitted to Safdarjung hospital with the help of the police. Fortunately, the baby in the womb is unhurt but Anita’s condition has declined due to severe damage and excessive bleeding from the attack.
The Civil Lines Police Station SHO, Sudhakar Pandey confirming the attack said the man got into an altercation with his wife who is about six to seven months pregnant over fear that the next child would also be a girl.
“A priest had predicted that their sixth child would also be a girl. Pannalal then attacked Anita with a sickle on her abdomen to kill the fetus after she refused to have an abortion.”
However, Pannalal said he did not intentionally hurt his wife as he is a father of 5 daughters and his action was a mistake.
He told local media that he threw the sickle at her but had no idea it would injure her so severely.
“I have five daughters, one of my sons is dead. I know that children are the gift of God. Now whatever is to happen, will happen.”
