Meanwhile, in another news…

Big Brother Africa (BBA) runner-up, Tayo Faniran has expressed displeasure with the manner organizers of the Nigerian version are coordinating the recruitment process.

The reality TV star tackled the organisers on Instagram and accused them of recruiting dirty rats with fruitless life and turning them into stars.

Tayo said he does not like the option of auditioning through social media because it waters down the value of fame unlike during his time when it took him many years of in-person auditions to be selected.

The actor who stated categorically that he was angry, told the show runners that if they continue with the current practice, it will ruin the platform for future generations.

Tayo wrote on Instastories; “I did not like social media because I thought it watered down the value of fame. I auditioned for the show in 2009 and I only made it in 2014, but today any dirty low life with fruitless life can become popular on the tiny screens.

“It’s such a shame when the bar become too low even a rat would effortlessly jump it. I am super upset tonight, and to all the enablers of mediocrity, continue, you are only ruining the ground your future generations will dwell on.”
