VIDEO: Big Brother Naija S3 Day 16 – After an umpteenth reshuffle of the couples, Biggie re-organised the disturbed dynamics for the next 24-hours

To mark the week of love and bonding, Biggie instructed Housemates to see the ‘good’ that lies in the person next to them. Biggie called onto them to be patient, tolerant and mindful of one another, reminding them that a House divided against itself cannot stand.

Biggie had used harnesses to bind Housemates to their partner and they were forbidden from removing it without Biggie’s sanction. To push the challenge further, Housemates have to eat, drink, shower and sleep – perform all bodily functions – with the bonds strictly intact for the next 24-hours. And to make it worse, they are not allowed to speak to any other Housemate except the one they are paired with.

Housemates were given just five minutes to say their final words to the House-at-large. Instinctively old couples reformed as per magic, with Teddy A and Bambam exchanging long smooches, as Ahneeka and Rico hugged intensely, while Anto and Lolu got all demonstrative.

Well the new pairing made for an interesting mix: Angel and Rico, Bambam and Tobi, Dee-One and Miracle, Princess and Vandora, Bitto and Ifu Ennada, Teddy A and Alex, Leo and Ahneeka, K.Brule and Nina, Khloe and Anto, and Lolu and Cee-C.

Biggie’s move proved right almost instantly, as the taciturn Miracle who had not uttered more than a few words a day, became suddenly talkative and animated. As for Ifu Ennada and Bitto, they could barely keep their hands off each other after their first kiss.

Angelifu, Bamteddy, Cebi, Loto, Mina, Pritto, Rineeka and Van-Dee are up for possible Eviction this week. Vote for your favourite pair here or via SMS. Voting closes on Thursday 15 February at 9pm WAT.
