BBNaija S6: It’s risky, Angel worries over Nini’s absence

Big Brother Naija Shine Ya Eye housemate, Angel, worried over Nini’s absence as she stated that keeping the latter isolated is risky.

Angel said this on Wednesday morning, day 60 of the show, as the housemates discussed Nini’s sudden disappearance from the house.

During her Diary Session on Tuesday, Nini was tasked to prank the housemates with a 24-hour exit.

In the early hours of Wednesday, day 60 of the show, Nini, in line with Biggie’s secret mission, snuck out of the house to a reserved area outside the house.

Saga found out some moments later and alerted the rest of the housemates. As the search intensified, Saga begged Biggie for some information concerning Nini’s absence.

Speaking of the possibility of isolation, Angel said, “There’s no amount of case that you’ll get that Big Brother will isolate you.”

She added, “You people should reason this thing. Do you know that it is risky for the production to keep one of us alone in a place?”

“Maybe it’s her decision,” Queen answered.

Liquorose chipped in, “If it’s risky, they won’t do it.”

Angel continued, “I’m hoping that she’s in the Executive Lounge and she has not gone anywhere.”

Cross said, “She’s not in the Executive Lounge,” adding that they have searched for her in the lounge.

“Don’t you see how risky it is for them to put one person in a room? Why do you think they don’t have locks in the toilet?” Angel continued with her theory.

She added, “Nobody will say they want to be alone and they’ll put him alone.”

Cross then countered Angel, stating that she’s not a member of the production and can’t say what is risky or not.

The rest of the housemates stated that wherever Nini is, she would be safe because she’s being monitored.

Not backing down, Angel said, “I’m saying that anything can happen. There are a series of possibilities that can happen from her being alone.

“Yes, she’s being monitored but let’s say she wants to do something risky. Do you know how long it’s going to take them to get there?”

The housemates continued their discussions as Nini watched them from her confined space.

It is pertinent to note that a screen has been provided for Nini in her reserved room, through which she could see the activities of the housemates.

Nollywood actor, Seun Jimoh accuses EFCC of scapegoating celebrities over naira abuse

Nollywood actor, Seun Jimoh has accused the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC) of “scapegoating” celebrities in its ongoing clampdown on Naira abusers.

He stated this in an Instagram post while reacting to the news of EFCC charging popular socialite, Pascal Okechukwu, better known as Cubana Chief Priest, for Naira abuse.

Jimoh said it is unfair that certain people are being selected for a crime almost 70% of Nigerians or more are guilty of with overwhelming video evidence all over the internet.

He added: “Scapegoat approach to cultural reforms is quite sinister and lacks any concern for the mental health of the Nigerian citizens.

“It looks like scapegoats are being selected to send a message to the general populace. But then, is it not unfair that certain people are being selected for a crime almost 70% of Nigerians or more are guilty of with overwhelming video evidence all over the internet?!

“Why hasn’t anyone ever caught on video spraying money between the time the law has been in effect till now being arrested?

“Why celebrities? Celebrities are citizens too! This scapegoat approach to cultural reforms is quite sinister and lacks any concern for the mental health of the Nigerian citizens.”
