BABIES OF BIG BROTHER AFRICA

Since its inception on Mnet, Big brother Africa has been one of the most watched reality program in Africa. One of the many attractions of the show is the platform it provides for building love relationships between housemates from different countries within Africa. In Big Brother Africa 1, viewers watched in excitement as Abi from South Africa and Gaetano from Uganda started a romantic thing in the house. It was a delight to watch them. Season 2 saw another relationship in the house. It was hot and controversial- of course these are Richard from Tanzania and Tatiana from Angola. Theirs was a ‘hot’ taboo because Richard was married and Tatiana had a boyfriend outside the house. However the relationship ended in tears.

Nevertheless, there were many other relationships in the big brother house that were nurtured into stronger bonds. One of such is the relationship between season 4 housemates Kelvin from Nigeria and Elizabeth from Tanzania. They had a baby girl last year to show for their meeting at the Big brother house.  Another controversial couple are Meryl from Namibia and Muisho from Tanzania. They also just had a baby in mid-February. Also another set of season 4 Housemates Quinn from South Africa and Jenifer from Mozambique are expecting their first child.

Indeed the Big Brother babies are increasing and with season 7 just around the corner, who knows there may be more new relationships just waiting to happen.

Kudos, to Big Brother Africa, for its role in African integration through love bonds. Big Brother Africa 7 - Double Up will kick off in May this year. Auditions are ongoing and will end on the 27^th of February. Interestingly, Sierra Leone and Liberia will take part in this Season of Brother in Africa.
