The confused nature of shops in the Big Brother Naija house persisted and this continued to drive conversations across the social media. Since the outset of their entanglement, Dotun and Daniella were able to manage a very rocky situation. Daniella was in a dilemma since she still very much liked Khalid. As a result, there were issues with Dotun. Her indecisiveness left her in a position of constant stress and even regret at this point.
However, Daniella stopped yielding to her need for romance and intimacy. Apparently, she still had little or no control over her desire to be fondled. In this vein, Chomzy, who was in the habit of feeling too relevant in many situations, thought she was the reason for Daniella and Dotun’s rift. In her conversation with Eloswag, she said she felt like she was the cause of their issues. In response to this, Eloswag explained that she (Chomzy) didn’t belong in that picture. As a matter of fact, Daniella still had feelings for Khalid and Dotun just waited for alcohol to kick in order to exploit the situation with Daniella, said Eloswag. Unfortunately, ‘Daughter of Zion’ did not resist. I personally have been nursing a vexation because Daniella did not realise how much alcohol broke her will.
After all, we can’t deny that Chomzy deserved some accolades for steadily being on the winning side in almost all tasks. But rather than motivation to keep it spinning in the games, it fueled her arrogance. She now constantly saw the need to be in the centre of other people’s issues, like the world revolved around her. She thought she was immune to the wrath of evictions. She also expected that all the guys should either chase her or worship at her feet for some unclear reasons. Also, she was in a constant display of bravado like in her telling Phyna that she should not resent her “helpers”. Earlier, I tried to argue for Chomzy saying her attitude might be justifiable because she was a strong player. However, once her attitude became demeaning to others, I immediately felt she should catch a break.
Meanwhile, Mr. Ikoyi got some stray bullets following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Sheggz vehemently refused to give the housemates a break with his London boy stories. He dropped countless lies about some sort of connection to the royal family, to the extent that the viewers and housemates just dismissed everything he mentioned as a bluff. Now, the Twitter space has taunted him for not reuniting with his supposed family upon the death of their matriarch. We can’t wait for his reaction to this news; he might have some new tales to dish out as he never ran out of ideas until he needed to win a task.
Biggie surprised the housemates with a pool party last night and as usual, it was lit. Ckay’s Watawi came on during the groove and Adekunle said “we are nothing but pencils in the hands of the creator”. Sometimes, I feel Adekunle repressed his need for a partner in the house so much that he let it out unconsciously. His reaction to that song might have been his way of expressing his lonely state. However, he seemed to have enjoyed the party so much in the company of other lit housemates. It was Chichi and Phyna with the ‘bad girl’ energy on the dance floor. And we loved every bit of it.
