Today’s Task had the Housemates not only doing one of their favourite things in the BB Naija House – cooking Indomie, but also smiling to the bank with 4 million Naira.

The Lockdown Geng have won 4 million Naira in the Indomie ‘Share your Style’ cooking Task. Now, if you are quite familiar with the Lockdown Geng, then you’d know one of their favourite things to do in the House is cook and number one on the list of meals they love to make is Indomie. So, today’s Task was a delight to them as they stepped in the kitchen to cook up a tasty delicious meal for the Indomie ‘Share your Style’ cooking Task. Not only did they whip up a meal, but they also got to present it adorned in their rich native attire while sharing a bit about their respective culture and their cooking recipes.

Let’s get cooking

After getting paired for the Task, each pair was asked to exchange their special ingredients with their partners and cook using the ingredients exchanged. Batch by batch they entered the kitchen to make their meals. Each batch made up of two pairs of Housemates had 30 minutes to make their meals and they hurried to make sure their meals were ready before the buzzer went off.

 The Presentation

Dressed in their native attires, the Housemates made their way to the Arena batch by batch to present the dishes they made. First, they had to taste each other’s meals then share their culture and the recipe for the meal. They had 5 minutes to showcase their culture then score each other on how well they thought the meals represented their culture. Batch one consisting of Kiddwaya, Wathoni, Neo and Erica went first. With pride written boldly on their faces, the Housemates talked about their respective culture during their presentation. Batch two consisted of Lucy, Ozo, Tolanibaj and Trikytee.  Prince, Nengi, Dorathy and Laycon made up batch three while Vee and Brighto made up the last batch. On and on they all presented showcasing their meals with cultural flair.

The result

After a brief while, the Housemates were asked to make their way back into the Arena for the result of their presentations. The Housemates were first asked to read out the scores they gave their teammates during the presentation and why they gave those scores.

Here’s how they scored each other.

The Result

Impressed by their exceptional performance, Biggie awarded them all the cash prize of 4 million Naira courtesy of Indomie. Each team got a total of 570,000 Naira, but the twist was the sharing formulae. The scores given to each partner was reversed so each housemate now had the score they gave their partners while their partners had the score they gave them. The prize money was then shared based on their respective scores.  

Talk about a good day doing what you love and getting paid for it too. The Housemates keep adding to their stash of winning in the House and it doesn’t seem like it’s stopping anytime soon.

The wedding introduction skit

The wait before the result for the cooking presentation was taking a while and the Housemates decided to have fun while they waited by acting out a drama.

When it comes to humour, the Lockdown Geng know how to get your ribs cracking and they do it with so much ease. This evening, they reenacted a wedding Introduction that had the internet laughing as they waited for their result from the cooking Task they just completed.

The wedding introduction

Gathered at the dining area, the Housemates, without any script or preparation acted out a typical wedding introduction scene. Initiated by Laycon who played the father of a prospective suitor, the Housemates recreated an introduction ceremony where they came to introduce themselves to their In-laws and formalise the union of both the families of the groom and the bride. Picking up on Laycon’s pretend character, Vee immediately adopted the role of his wife who wasn’t impressed with their In-laws social background and financial status. The rest of the Housemates soon joined in the play as they made fun of the usual drama that occurs between family members of different tribes at wedding introductions and also poked fun at each other. From making comments about their financial background to both families accusing themselves of indiscretions, the Housemates had a swell time trading insult.

Making a tribute

In preparation for the Wager Task, Laycon finally decided to pay tribute to his late dad while discussing with Vee. Even though when it comes to heroes, the first person he considers his hero is his mum, he felt he had to use the massive platform he was offered to pay tribute to his dad. according to him, there was still enough time to do a lot more for his mum. It was in this moment Laycon opened up about not being too close with his dad and the hurt he still nursed owing to his dad’s untimely exit. He spoke highly of his dad and how he lost him to ill health. He wished things could have gone differently and his dad had spoken up about what he was going through earlier.  This tribute will definitely be an emotional one for Laycon.

Hopefully, the Housemates will be a lot committed to preparing for the Wager Task, so that they don’t only win it, a certain Housemate can be at ease knowing he made his dad proud.
