It is the dream of every applicant of the BBNaija to be selected for the Reality show as it translates to instant fame even if a housemate is the first to be evicted from the show. That shows how popularly the Big Brother Reality TV show is.
After being selected and inducted, Housemates familiarise themselves with a list of house rules to which they must abide by during their entire stay in the house. But rules can be fragile and careless housemates easily break them.
Fortunately, breaking one rule in the Big Brother’s house is not usually enough to send the offender packing immediately. Housemates are issued strikes for every time they break a rule – some rules are too negligible and the offender might get off with just an ordinary warning from Big Brother.
Ex-BBNaija housemate Kemen opened the door of disqualifications in recent seasons of Big Brother after his disqualification in 2017. On Sunday, March 5, 2017, Kemen, a Portharcourt-based fitness entrepreneur, was disqualified from the BBNaija Season 2 reality TV show tagged “See Gobe” for sexually touching female co-housemate Tboss without her consent while she was asleep. In a series of interviews, BBNaija Kemen whose real name is Ekemini Ekerette has maintained that the event did not happen as was depicted on TV.
· Khloe and K-Brule
BBNaija ‘Double Wahala’ housemates Khloe and K-Brule were evicted from the BBNaija Season 3 reality TV show as a pair in 2018. The housemates were paired in teams of two in that season of Big Brother. Khloe and K-Brule who were a team were disqualified after they earned their third strike for bad behaviour.
The duo got their first strike when K. Brule got drunk and jumped from the first floor of the BBNaija house. They got another strike when Khloe called K-Brule’s mother a whore on live TV.
The altercation apparently started when K-Brule tried to kiss co-housemate Leo, and Leo told Khloe about this. Khloe who was the head of house then went to confront K-Brule and in the process, she called K-Brule’s mother a whore. K-Brule threatened to physically harm Khloe, almost hitting her, but was restrained by other housemates. The two received their third strikes for the fight and were ejected out of the show.
· Tacha
Tacha’s disqualification from the BBNaija Season 4 reality TV show tagged “Pepper Dem” drew the biggest attention probably because she was a strong contender in the show before her disqualification. Tacha was disqualified from the show in 2019 following her infamous fight with co-housemate and rival Mercy Eke.
After their fight, Tacha was disqualified while Mercy was issued two strikes. For pushing, shoving and also pulling Mercy’s hair, Tacha was found guilty of physical violence and intent to harm and was disqualified.
· Erica
Erica who had already received two strikes and a “final warning” from Big Brother was disqualified from the 2020 BBNaija Lockdown show on Sunday, September 6, 2020. Erica’s offences that led to her disqualification include denying the deputy head of house (Prince) access to the head of house lounge, pouring water on the bed of head of house lounge, peeping through the windows and trying to talk to the camera crew and bullying co-housemate Laycon.
· Beauty
BBNaija Levelup housemate Beauty Tukura is the latest housemate to join the list of disqualified housemates from the reality TV show. Beauty was disqualified for fighting fellow housemate Groovy over claims he danced with Chomzy.
Her disqualification came after she was issued a double strike on Sunday, less than an hour before Sunday’s live eviction show.
