VIDEO: #BBNaija Lockdown Day 26 – Prince is victorious in the Arena Game, Housemates for hire and more…

In a Game dedicated to the hardworking rural women of Africa, Prince pays tribute.

Tonight Betway Arena Games were a tribute to the queens in rural Africa, who toil daily to make sure that their families are well taken care of and safe.

The Task

Mimicking the role of women in rural Africa, the Housemates were to go through the market set up for their Game, shopping for items to take home to their families. Their shopping journey was to include rolling a headwrap in order to place their basket on their head and then go from stall to stall picking up items for their basket. They would have three minutes in which to finish the Game.

The task was quite simple. With their basket on their head, the Team was to make their way to the plantain stall first. Thereafter they were to make their way over a small wooden bridge to the cloth stand and pick one. After the cloth, they made their way to the next stand where they would pick up 1 potato, 1 onion and some fresh peppers. From there, they were to make their way to the vegetable stand and pick a bunch of fresh veggies. After this, they would cross some pond by stepping on the protruding stones and get to the orange tree, where they would pick an orange and finally lay the basket down at the finish line once they make it there.

The guys were on fire

All the guys did very well with no hangup’s what so ever. They made their way from stand to stand, picking up each bunch of plantain with one easy swoop to place in the basket. Praise made his way through the course for instance, without ever putting his basket down once to pick anything up, earning him a round of cheer from the Housemates. Kiddwaya approached the game with his arm firm to maintain his balance to make it through the Game in under one minute. Trikytee, Neo, Brighto and Laycon played a similar Game, making it through within a minute in each of their turns.

The queens ruled the roost

The ladies in the group held their own in the task with Housemates like Dorathy and Nengi making it through the task in just 47 and 46 seconds respectively. Lucy managed to get through the task with two minutes remaining however, she used both hands when crossing the stream. Erica was paced in her approach, going stall by stall to make sure she gets her fruit and veg into her basket. Kaisha was nervous, but very paced as she made it through the round, just as Wathoni and Vee did.

Rules were made to be broken

Even though Prince won the games, we think it is clear that Tolanibaj and Ozo were the winners of the viewers choice awards tonight. 

Tolanibaj dropped her basket and decided to continue dragging the plantain and her headwrap in one hand, maintaining her basket on her head with the other hand. She finished up the race with much applause from the geng.

Ozo had a frenzy when he punched the plantain into the basket because it would not fit.

Regardless of the plantain punching bag, Biggie hoped the Housemates had fun and was also quick to tell them to drop the food they were picking up to take back into the House with them. All we can say is, what a night. 

Housemates for hire

BBNaija Housemates possess so many different skills that we think they might add value to your organisation if you are looking.

Hello, if you happen to be looking for talented hands to add to your workforce, we think that our Housemates may be able to help. From raw talent to impressive soft skills, we think that our Housemates have it all. Let’s take you around and show you all that we have to offer. We are almost certain that you will find what you are looking or what you were not looking for but now, you suddenly must have.

Unfiltered Talent
Are you looking for raw talent? Are you into art and you need gifted Housemates? Step right this way, we’ve got just what you are searching for. Have you met Laycon? One of the most prolific rappers in the House? By now you should have heard a few of his hit songs making major waves and doing crazy numbers on streaming platforms. If that doesn’t convince you, then just watch him freestyle every chance he gets. Such raw and unfiltered lyrical prowess that leaves his fellow Housemates stunned.

Oh! You want an actress too? We’ve got you! Erica has done a fantastic job showing off her acting skills especially during the Wager Tasks. Trust us when we tell you that she will make a fine addition to your movie cast.

Project leads?
Oh! Why didn’t you say so! We have got so many capable Housemates that you’d gladly let head any of your projects to and they’d deliver a good job. If you want anyone to whip your team into shape for a major presentation, then the Housemates you are looking for are either Praise or Trikytee. On second thought, you should take them both. Praise is responsible for some of the best choreographies you have seen in the House during presentations while Trikytee is an excellent director and thanks to him, the Housemates bagged their first Wager Task win. Do you need someone to ensure orderliness and manage your staff efficiently especially when they’re fond of defaulting in their assigned roles, then you need Lucy or Dorathy in the case. If neither of these ladies doesn’t whip your team into shape and have them on their best behaviour, by all means, go ahead and rate our recruitment agency two stars. For your company’s social nights, you’ll want to have Neo the Oracle heading such gatherings. Don’t ask us why; the oracle will reveal it to you when the time comes. If your business has been down on luck and you need that loveable head with a winning streak, we have got just whom you are looking for. His name is Ozo. Finally, who else can you trust to head your team than someone who already has a track record of managing businesses and is also the present Deputy Head of House, Kiddwaya.

Looking for Human Resources?
Over here, we have amazing listeners and therapists that will come in handy during employee mediation and provide other human resources services. Let us not kid ourselves, the times we are in and the jobs we handle require that you talk to someone to help you with life decisions and proffer you general advice. Brighto is one of our excellent in-House mentor and life coach. If you ever feel like letting go of certain situations, Brighto is the person you need to help you remain steadfast and teach you how to apply more pressure. On days you feel down, Prince is a great addition to your corner. Just ask Lucy how he was able to talk her out of her despair and give her some assurance.

Goal getters
If you could follow us in this direction, thank you. Here we have our Boss ladies and goal getters. With Tolanibaj and Nengi, one thing is certain, you are getting a goal-getter. Put the target there and the next thing you’ll hear is ‘target acquired!” Wathoni is whom you need to put a bit of fear in your competitors. She will shake their tables and leave the coast clear for you to swoop in on their clients.
