Published on July 14, 2019, a group of journalists and media influencers from Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, and Zambia embarked on an unforgettable experience – spending a night in the Big Brother Naija house.
Located in Lagos, the house is a massive structure with two rooms, each containing ten beds, where housemates shower together in a common area. The 'Head of the House' room is a master ensuite complete with a bed, toilet, shower, and a bathtub.
During their stay, the group was treated to a Nigerian housemate's cooking, with one of the participants, a Kenyan, deciding to cook 'ka dry fry' in the Kenyan style. The dish was a hit, with everyone wanting a bite.
As the night progressed, the group settled down to break the ice with local music in the background. By 1am, most housemates had retired to bed, leaving the 'Head of the House' room empty – a lucky break for one of the participants.
However, things took a turn for the worse three hours later, when one of the housemates snored next to the participant, signaling the end of their night. The drama of season four of Big Brother Naija continues 24/7, with 19 housemates remaining in the house after two were evicted last Sunday.
