‘Not our choice’: Viewers condemn BBNaija jury’s eviction style

The viewers of the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality show, ‘All Stars’ edition, have condemned the jury’s style of eviction, saying it does not reflect their choices.

The viewers expressed their dissatisfaction on the X social media platform, formerly known as Twitter, calling out the organisers to explain why the voting system was not utilised in the ‘All Stars’ edition.

The eviction on the show in previous editions was usually through voting by viewers after housemates had gone to the Diary Room to nominate a housemate for possible eviction.

Eviction in this year’s edition is, however, different as a jury comprising three former housemates are invited to deliberate and choose the housemate to be saved or evicted.

The first eviction of the show which had Bisola, Dorathy, and Mike in the jury, saw Princess exiting the show after the voting polls revealed that Seyi had the lowest votes.

The second eviction had Laycon, Teddy A, and Diana on the jury. Uriel was eventually evicted, while the polls again revealed that Seyi would have been evicted if the organisers utilised the polls as he had the lowest votes.

While some viewers completely frowned against the jury’s style of eviction, some accused the jury of bias with their decisions.

@ixora_flourish said: “Uriel’s eviction will probably be the only BBN eviction that hit this hard.

“I mean what is Seyi still doing there? It’s not fair people vote for their fav, at the end of the day people who probably don’t even watch the show make the final decision.”

@JulyCrush_ wrote: “This eviction is the most annoying of them all, this is pure wicked(sic)…I mean is not giving. For the second time they have saved Seyi and sent Uriel home … what is the point in voting….??”

@thebrandOma also accused the jury of not watching the show based on their decisions so far.

“This eviction jury should never be for an All-Star season. Let it be based off social experiment, let their fans vote and let’s see who is still a star and not someone who doesn’t watch the show coming to decide who to throw out. This method should be for 100L BBN,” he said.

@iamjennabby said: “This is the most fixed up eviction process in the history of BBN because how can someone who has had the lowest votes for two eviction Sundays still be in the house all in the name of Jury?

“So, why are we voting? Let this Jury thing end please.”

Joachim Okhai also condemned the BBNaija jury’s eviction process, adding that it was susceptible to other variables including tribalism.

“BBN should scrap the jury aspect of the eviction process. This is damaging the brand and the reputation of BBN,” he said.
