BBA-Chase housemates down to 16

The latest to have their dreams shattered on Sunday are Malawi's Fatima, who was facing nomination for possible eviction for the first time; and Zimbabwe's Hakeem, who did not receive even a single vote to stay in the game. Hakeem, however, suffered the same fate as Botswana's Motamma, as he was not nominated for possible eviction by fellow housemates, having been put in the hot-seat by Nigeria's Melvin who was head of house for the week; which befell him again this week, following this week's head of house eviction. Hakeem would have started his head of house responsibilities yesterday, had he not been evicted on Sunday.

Meanwhile, Pokello seems to be tempering with her fate, as she went on to discredit countries that had previously supported her with their votes, using foul language towards West and East Africans. Judging by comments on Big Brother Africa-The Chase, Pokello might see the end of her game earlier than expected had she kept her tongue in check. Pokello was saved with four votes by Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Ghana, and Sierra Leone. Only time will tell whether the 'slip of the tongue' will cost Pokello her game or whether BBA fans will forget in time and start supporting her again.

The tie-breaker rules were applied on Fatima and Cleo as they each had one popularity vote, the housemate with the lowest average percentage across all countries was Fatima.
