Big Brother Naija season is nearly here once again and this year is already promising to be bigger than ever.
At the media briefing to launch the seventh season of the reality show to the media, Executive Head, Content and West Africa Channels at MultiChoice Nigeria, Dr. Busola Tejumola, disclosed that MultiChoice has recorded more than 40,000 audition entries for this season’s BBNaija.
The show will keep its voting style from last year. Voting will only be on the Big Brother Naija website, mobile site, and the MyDStv and MyGOtv apps for active customers. The number of votes each subscriber will have will be determined by their subscription packages, with DStv Premium and GOtv SUPA subscribers receiving the highest votes.
MultiChoice on Tuesday announced that it will begin the seventh season of the show on July 23 and 24, 2022. The organizers said the show will return with a double launch show on July 23 and 24. This will be the second time the show will be opening with two premieres. The Shine ya Eye Season was the first. The show will run for 72 days.
Below are five things to expect this season.
- The winner of this year’s edition will walk away with a N50 million cash prize and another N50 million worth of prizes from the sponsors.
- Fans have been told to expect a line-up of more engaging tasks, unpredictable twists, and Big Brother’s wit.
- This year will see the return of the ‘fan-favorite ‘Ninjas’ and a live studio audience. In past editions, fans of different housemates were invited to the live eviction show but it was halted due to COVID-19 restrictions.
- Just like last year, there will be no SMS voting for the forthcoming season. The organizers said fans will vote for free using BBNaija’s official website and mobile apps. This means the number of votes each subscriber will have will be determined by their subscription packages.
- Thirty lucky fans will win N1 million each in the Fave Lock-In promo exclusive to DStv and GOtv customers.
