Sunday night’s Big Brother Naija eviction show saw fiery couple Zinwe (Chinwe and Zion) become the latest housemates to leave the show.
The duo were the first to be evicted since Big Brother gave back nomination powers to the housemates, after weeks of viewers deciding who would be up for eviction.
Speaking to live show host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu about the “rough week” which saw her spend a lot of time in bed, Chinwe said: “I bonded a lot with the pair that left previously, so seeing my friends leave was overwhelming. Coupled with the fact that I wasn’t feeling well, it was just like, ‘you know what? Whatever happens happens’.”
When asked about his BBNaija experience, Zion said: “I won’t say this was hard – it was a learning experience for me. Being with my girl in a confined space for that long taught me to be patient, resilient, and to pay attention to her a lot more.”Zinwe were up against Beta (Ben and Tjay), Chekas (Chizoba and Onyeka), DoubleKay (Kellyrae and Kassia), and twins Wanni X Handi, who were also nominated for eviction.
Nine duos are still in the running for the incredible BBNaija Season 9 grand prize of GH¢100,000.
It was another eventful week – or, as Ebuka said in the opener: “chaos and more chaos,” descended on the house.
Nelita (Anita and Queen Nelly) reigned supreme yet again as the Heads of House, enjoying the now-restored perk of immunity that comes with the title after winning the HoH challenge. The two are no strangers to power – they were last week’s HoH and the winners of the now-scrapped Immunity Challenge.
