Emotions as ailing housemate and partner leave BBA house
Staff Writer | Tuesday May 22, 2012 00:00
The eviction was done in the order of the ones who received the least votes, first to be given the sad news was Sierra Leone's Dalphin, followed by Liberia's Yadel.
The two who were left on stage were told that the one with the most votes, would move to the Upville house while the other would be evicted, and the third housemate to be evicted became Luke, and Zainab became the lucky one to be sent to the house of celebrities, the Upville house. The three were very disappointed to leave the house so soon into the game, as all of them were vying for the prize money, which is a whooping R2 million (P1.8 million).
A total of eight housemates have left the Downville house, six of which were evicted, and two left one due to a partner's medical condition. Nigeria's Ola and Chris, left the Big Brother Africa Stargame house on Friday because of an escalating medical condition.
Ola's blood pressure was rising and not responding to medication and had to opt for voluntary exit. So in accordance with the game rules governing the Downville house, where contestants play as partners, Chris too had to leave the house. It was an emotional Friday as the remaining housemates, couldn't control themselves, with almost all the housemates crying uncontrollably.
'Whilst M-Net and Endemol are deeply saddened to see these two very entertaining housemates leave the game, they remain committed to ensuring the health and safety of the contestants and therefore understand and respect the housemates' decision,' a statement from M-Net and Endemol explained. Show presenter IK, explained that this week the Downville housemates will be given a break, and evictees this coming Sunday will come from Upville, which has enjoyed two weeks of no evictions. Here's a breakdown on who nominated who in the Upville and why.
Barbz Nomination Session:She nominates: 1. Prezzo because she wants to gauge his fame and fate in Africa. 2. Mampi because she doesn't want to nominate DKB and Maneta, therefore was left with only Mampi.
DKB Nomination Session:He nominates: 1. Mampi because she's bringing mistrust as she comes between the guys too much. 2. Lady May because she's very conserved and does not want to play even when something jovial comes up.
Goldie Nomination Session:She nominates: 1. Mampi because she's been doing a lot of gossiping and therefore the cause of the many quarrels in the house. 2. Maneta because she probably engages in the gossip with Mampi although she's got nothing against her. She adds that Maneta doesn't give her time.
Lady May Nomination Session:She nominates: 1. Mampi because she and maneta keep whispering and gossiping about other housemates. 2. Maneta for the same reason.
Mampi Nomination Session:She nominates: 1. Goldie because she's plastic and therefore a pretender. 2. DKB because he's not about to stop his bad behaviour in the house probably because he knows he is the head of house.
Maneta Nomination Session:She nominates: 1. DKB because he's the head of house and can save himself. She's also least closest to DKB. 2. Goldie because she's not genuine, fake, two- faced and a pretender.
Prezzo Nomination Session:He nominates: 1. Mampi because she's trying too hard to fit in in the house and in a bad way. 2. DKB because he's not real with himself and not genuine. He also tries too hard to fit in, he adds.
Roki Nomination Session:He nominates; 1. Mampi because he wants to protect her and its better she gets out as the Downvilles invade the house since its going to be crazy. 2.
Maneta because she's failing as she spends more time with Mampi amidst all the gossiping they do together. (Extra reporting: www.bigbrotherafrica.com)
