It’s going to a month that the Big Brother Naija: Pepper Dem show have been running and in this little time of its airing, there’s been a handful of juicy stories about the lifestyle of housemates.
Particularly, there’s been several assumptions by viewers that housemate and Instagram socialite, Tacha does not have enough clothes because she has been observed to be repeating the same clothes in the house.
Well, it seems as though the speculations are correct after all cause according to her the perception she had before coming to the house was that they will be given clothes in the house but unfortunately, they have not been given any outfit.
Tacha was fake evicted from the Big Brother house alongside housemate, Seyi at the Live eviction show last night and the duo will be expected to live together in a secret room for a week while watching other housemates.
After the show’s host, Ebuka announced that she will be ‘leaving’ the Big Brother house, a non-fan of the IG socialite who was oblivious to the fact that it was a fake eviction took to social media to celebrate wildly, thinking it was a real eviction.
He screamed in wild celebration,

Punch reported that he further assured that justice will be served.

Read his full post:
“Dear Ladies, if you don’t have up to N1,000,000 / $2000 in assets or in your account you shouldn’t be thinking about marriage. This is for your own good. A lot of ladies are attenuated focusing on finding a Husband instead of having financial security which leads to atrophy & low self esteem. Lugubriously, most Ladies today see having a husband as financial security, this leads to domestic abuse and disrespect when most of the burden is left on the shoulders of a man.
“Some wives don’t have vex money or start up money to start afresh in case of divorce. Having N1,000,000 in assets is having a skill than can bring you 1m in a year. Love is not enough in the millennial generation.
“Money matters. Ladies, Having financial independence will bring a certain level of catharsis. Only broke wives accommodate Sidechicks in their marriage.

Professor Yemi Osinbajo has advised Christians to always pray and show love to their enemies including insurgents as this is what God expects of them.
The Vice-President gave the advice when he spoke in Lagos at the National headquarters of the Foursquare Gospel Church, Nigeria yesterday Sunday July 21st. According to Osinbajo, he is always shocked when men of God speak bitterly about their enemies.
“The gospel of Jesus Christ is a contrarian gospel because it does not agree with our flesh. The Bible for instance says we must pray for our enemies, bless those who curse us and even those who persecute us. But our flesh says we should curse those who curse us. In fact, curse them so much that they will not again dare to curse. The Scriptures say we should not revenge. The power of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ lies in that very contrarian nature. The gospel speaks to that which we do not want to accept.
I have seen as I travel around the country how God’s love is demonstrated by other people, ordinary Christians. A woman whose two children were killed and her father was also injured in the North East. I spoke to her and she said, we still must pray for these people. These people are the people to whom we have been called. I was surprised. I have heard leaders of our faith who speak with such bitterness.
When I heard this woman who had lost her two children speak, I knew she spoke from the very depth of the grace that God gives to those who truly believe in him and I know it is that kind of love that can conquer all situations and win souls and win over the worst of men and the worst of women. It is that exceptional kind of love that Christ himself taught us. But it is so difficult. Yet that is the gospel.”

A man simply identified as Jermaine showed nothing short of love and devotion when he climbed a 19-story building to save his mother from a fire, New York Post reports.
Jermaine received a call from his sister explaining that their mother’s high-rise apartment building was on fire. Immediately, the 35-year-old jumped into action. He raced over to the Westpark Apartments and started to scale the outside of the building in hopes to rescue his bed-ridden mother.
Jermaine said ;
“I climbed up with some barbed-wire cutters to cut the gate so at least the firefighters will be able to get upstairs,” When I first got out there there was a 100 cops out there, 50 firefighters. They said the whole building was on fire and they wasn’t letting nobody in…I took it upon myself because that’s my mother. There’s no limits for my mother.”
Thankfully by the time he reached his mother, the fire had not reached her 15th-floor apartment. Jermaine’s mother and her boyfriend were told to wait on the porch while the fire and smoke were being contained. After realizing his mother was fine, Jermaine started to make his way down and that’s when news cameras began capturing his feat. Jermaine’s story has now become a big sensation, but he doesn’t feel that what he did was extraordinary.
“I think if anyone else was in that circumstances they would do the same thing, because don’t nobody want to just sit outside and lose their mother.”
A robbery suspect, Egbeke Ifeoluwa, who operates in Army uniform on Sango-Ijoko Road in Ogun State, has been arrested by the operatives of the Ogun State annex of the Inspector General of Police Intelligence Response team (IRT).
The suspect was the leader of a robbery gang that specialized in one-chance robbery in different parts of Ogun State and nearby states, adding that they carried out their operations anytime of the day.
Ifeoluwa, 25, wore Army uniform to intimidate the public and scare away law enforcement agents. Following the gang’s operations, road users and residents gave intelligence report to the IRT annex in Sango on the nefarious activities of the gang.
Based on the intelligence report, the IRT Commander, Deputy Commissioner of Police Abba Kyari, directed the Ogun State annex to arrest the hoodlums.
The Nation reports that the operatives swung into action and saw a commercial bus driver in an Army uniform plying the road. They stopped the bus with number plate XV 14 AKD and the driver, who was later identified as Egbeke Ifeoluwa, the wanted gang leader, was nabbed. His colleagues, however, escaped.
It was gathered that when the vehicle was searched by the operatives, they found one live ammunition, two jack knives, five military vests, one military beret, military gadget and one Navy ID card hidden under the bus seats.
The suspect, who initially insisted that he was a soldier, later confessed that he was a fake soldier and the gang leader the police had been looking for.
He confessed that they usually hid their weapons and army uniforms under the vehicle’s seats and only wore them when they wanted to operate, noting that the uniforms helped to scare away the police and other security agents. On how he could assist the police to arrest his fleeing colleagues, he said it would be difficult to get them because none of them had permanent addresses or phone numbers.

Controversial Lagos club owner, Pretty Mike has been accused of rape by writer Olutimehin Adegbeye, via her twitter handle.
In a series of tweets, Olutimehin made the allegation via her Twitter handle, recounting how Pretty Mike allegedly raped her at age 16, causing her to have a phantom period.
This comes after the writer also accused social media personality, Andre Blaze Henshaw of sexual assault, also revealing, that he is the voice behind ‘Biggie’ from the popular reality TV show, Big Brother Naija.
Read Olutimehin’s tweets below;
By the way, the unnamed rapist in my nonfiction piece that won the Gerald Kraak prize is Pretty Mike of Club Q, opposite Oshoppey Plaza, Ikeja. Not long after the rape, my brother confronted him. His response was essentially “guy, you know how it is now.”
Mike knew that I was a minor and that I had never had sex. He locked me in a house one afternoon after school and raped me anyway. The rape was so violent that I got a phantom period – cramps and bleeding for almost two days, even though my period wasn’t due yet.
But according to him, I’m just an attention seeker with over 2 million views on my TED talk. I want to use his name for fame, since it is utterly irrelevant that I have been and continue to be invited into and create spaces he could never dream of. Trolololololololol.
I mean, he’s a man and I’m a woman. So all of that makes perfect sense.
Last Night, housemate Khafi emerged the new holder of the Veto Power in the Big Brother Naija reality TV Show.
After the eviction show earlier in the night, the pepper dem gang were coming to terms that they’d just saw three housemates get evicted but interestingly, for Seyi and Tacha, the other Housemates have no idea that they are in the Secret Room chilling.
But Eviction or not, Biggie needed them to know their VPH for this week. The Veto Power Holder has the power to save and replace any Housemate Nominated for Eviction.
As Biggie keeps coming up with tricks upon tricks, the simple Task that would turn up to be the Veto Power Game of Chance was announced after the Housemates were gathered in the lounge taking their dinner.
Housemates were asked to pick two out of the 28 objects in the bucket one of the two Ninjas was holding. The other Ninja held the object that signified the VPH win. All the Housemates came forward but Khafi got lucky for picking the right object. Then the HoH, Esther read-aloud that she had won the VPH and 100 Bet9ja Coins.
Nigerian Billionaire, Femi Otedola has promised to take care of the medical bills of ailing veteran actor, Sadiq Daba.
Otedola disclosed this in a statement released today July 21st.
Recall that Daba travelled to the United Kingdom in 2017 for the treatment of Leukaemia and Prostate cancer. He returned to Nigeria a few weeks after with reports that his situation was not as bad as feared. The ‘Cock Crow at Dawn’ star was recently admitted at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital for what those close to him said was chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Otedola’s statement reads
“I heard about Mr. Sadiq Daba’s health condition when it was brought to my attention through an online news story I read two days ago. I was saddened to hear that he had taken ill again after overcoming his challenges from prostate cancer just two years ago.
“From the news report, I gathered that he was rushed to the Emergency unit of LUTH after being diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). I must say that even though I don’t know Mr. Daba personally, he is a face I am familiar with through the old TV drama production ‘Cock Crow at Dawn’ which I used to watch while growing up.
“I was moved by a sense of nostalgia and concern when I read of his medical situation recently and decided to take over his medical bills. He has been visited and arrangements are being made to support him.
In other climes, the likes of Sadiq Daba and other such actors who more or less paved the way for the entertainment industry and the Nollywood industry in Nigeria (which is touted as the 3rd largest movie industry in the world) would be celebrated as Icons and due recognition would be accorded to them.
“For me, taking care of Sadiq’s medical expenses is my little way of showing appreciation and gratitude for the good memories he created for me and others in the past.”
Recall that in April this year, the billionaire picked up the medical bills of former Super Eagles’ coach, Christian Chukwu, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Chukwu returned to the country after his treatment in the UK which reportedly cost Otedola N36,635,000 on Friday July 12th.

The Big Brother Naija: Pepper Dem show has been running for three weeks now and so far, five housemates have been evicted from the show with the latest being, stripper, Tuoyo who was evicted earlier tonight.
The Live show of tonight, 21st July, was quite an intriguing one as Big Brother pulled a fake eviction stunt with two of the housemates who were up for eviction earlier this week, Tacha and Seyi.
Moments after it seemed as though he’d been saved from eviction, Tuoyo was fazed with great disappointment after he was announced by Ebuka, the show’s anchor, as the next housemate to leave the Big Brother house.
Upon watching his housemates who nominated him for eviction, Tuoyo revealed that he was shocked that his homie, Frodd, who was also up for eviction alongside, was part of the people who’d nominated him for eviction.
Tuoyo is the fifth housemate to leave the Big Brother Naija: Pepper Dem show with 16 housemates remaining and two others who have been fake evicted and placed in a secret room.
Not more than a year ago, media personality, Andre Blaze, who is one of the hosts of Men’s Corner on Ebony Life TV, was accused of sexual assault by a woman named Olutimehin Adegbeye.
Olutimehin had at the time, taken to her social media page to allege that Pretty Mike raped her in Lagos when she was only 16 years old. Then, two years after, Andre Blaze sexually assaulted her.
