BBNaija: Big Brother unpairs ‘No Loose Guard’ housemates

35

The organisers of BBNaija season nine have announced the unpairing of the housemates.

The 28 housemates that were partnered up into a total of 14 teams were revealed in the July 28 debut of the reality TV program.

However, with the eviction on Sunday, Biggie ended the partnerships.

The housemates will now compete individually rather than in pairs.

The most recent changes state that there will only be one head of house (HOH), and that person will only be covered by automatic immunity.

There will also be individual evictions.

This is not the first twist the organisers of the reality TV program will be adding to the season.

Custodian challenge and HOH ballot were discarded beforehand.

The program opened with the custodian challenge, which took place following Sunday’s eviction.

The housemates that prevailed in the task received a weeklong immunity and the ability to propose candidates for potential eviction.

By means of voting, the heads of the house (HoH) for the week were chosen. Nevertheless, obtaining the title did not confer immunity.

With the changes, though, the couples can now propose one another for eviction, with fans having the final say through voting.

Additionally, the HoH challenge champions are granted automatic immunity.

On July 28, the season of BBNaija this year kicked off with the introduction of 28 housemates paired into 14 teams.

The show will run for 71 days and end on October 6. The winner of the 2024 season will go home with the grand prize of N100 million.
