Ex-housemates of Africa’s biggest reality show, BBNaija, from across various seasons are speaking on how the show skyrocketed their careers.
The former housemates spoke separately in a sideline interview at the reality show host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu’s birthday party in Lagos recently.
Ebuka noted that the show made him discover his potential as a TV host.

“It [BBNaija] definitely made me a TV presenter. I was never going to be doing this. It was not in my trajectory. I was a lawyer, and I was going to be practising somewhere today. But I went into the Big Brother house and discovered that I have this thing about speaking. Without BBNaija, I wouldn’t have a career in television today,” he said.
On her part, actress Bisola Aiyeola said she knew she was going to be successful in the entertainment industry even without going on Big Brother Naija, but admitted that the reality show fast-tracked her success.
“Big Brother Naija escalated the success that I knew I was going to have either way, but the reality show took it like zillion steps faster to the top,” she said.
In a similar vein, actor and filmmaker Elozonam said, “Big Brother Naija elevated my brand. It gave my brand exposure.”
A former winner of the reality show, Mercy Eke, stated that Big Brother Naija changed her “whole existence.”
Eke said, “Big Brother Naija changed me, changed my brand, changed my whole existence. I think you can see it right here.”
