Big Brother Nigeria Returns January 2017
MultiChoice Nigeria has announced the return of the
Nigeria reality TV show based on the Big Brother TV series. Now referred
to as Big Brother Naija, the show will air on dedicated event channels
on DStv and GOtv in January 2017.
Speaking on this latest development, Managing
Director, MultiChoice Nigeria, Mr. John Ugbe said the comeback of the
show is one of the ways the company is enhancing the quality and variety
of content available on its platforms.
He also said the show has been well developed following the successes of past seasons of Big Brother Africa.
“Big Brother Africa was popular for its
entertainment value and ability to showcase ordinary Africans from
different walks of life. We decided to re-invent the reality show once
again by bringing back the Nigerian version which we are confident will
draw pan-African audiences for the same reasons that Big Brother Africa
did”, said Ugbe.
In the first edition of the show, twelve housemates
vied for the coveted $100,000 prize money by performing various mental
and physical tasks. At the end of a three-month stay in the house,
Katung Aduwak emerged winner. The show also produced other notable stars
such as Africa Magic’s Tinsel actor, Gideon Okeke, and TV personality
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.
- The show has been renamed Big Brother Naija.
