Botswana's Kaone among possible BBAS evictees

This week Big Brother All Stars (BBA) will evict two housemates out of the four who are up for possible eviction, Zimbabwe's Munya, Angola's Tatiana, Nigeria's Uti, and Botswana's Kaone.

It does not look good for Kaone and Tatiana, as they are the most likely to be axed, considering that Munya has proven his popularity time and again, and the other contender, Uti, also has a bit of strength.

Logically Uti might not be in any immediate danger as he will not be affected by split votes, because he is the only East African housemate up for possible eviction, while the other three, Tatiana, Munya, and Kaone, will between them share Southern Africa's votes.

Big Brother Africa for the most part has been predictable in terms of votes, as certain countries tend to support not only their own but their neighbours' aspirants as well.

Initially, the week's head of house, Mwisho, was up for possible eviction, but he decided to use his prerogative as head of house to save himself, at the expense of Tatiana.

While debatable the twist of creating the barn, and bringing back contestants who had already been rejected by voters into the house seems a bit unfair, and unjustifiable - considering that the house somewhat already had its top four - only for Big Brother to turn around and bring in those who had already been voted out, thus taking away the top four status from the other housemates.

Should Kaone, Munya or Uti be voted out at this time, it would obviously take away their status of being in the top five leaving Sheila and Lerato who had already been rejected by viewers.

The two are not up for possible eviction, alongside Mwisho, who, of course, saved himself as head of house.  The idea, which perhaps was meant to make the M-Net reality show more interesting, seems to defeat the purpose of the game in that, it is already obvious that none of the three who came from the barn stands a chance of winning the prize money.

It is somewhat making the game predictable, being that the other ones from the barn are just 'bride's maids' without a chance of winning the money.

One might, of course, argue that viewers voted Sheila and Tatiana back into the house, so they might stand a chance, but that was the only activity concerning the show, so viewers just voted.

Quite a number of viewers already expressed disappointment at the twist pulled on viewers by Big Brother, which many see as trying to interfere with the outcome of the game.
