With the Big Brother Naija Season 11 House getting closer to the final stretch, Barry secured the Head of House position after winning this week’s HOH competition, earning both immunity and the Ultimate Veto Power.
The win also guarantees him a place in the Big Brother Naija Season 11 Show Ya Sef finale, making him the first housemate to officially qualify for the final stage of the competition.
Rather than the usual nomination format, the housemates had the opportunity to speak directly to Barry about why they should remain in the game. One after another, they made their case, drawing on their time in the House, their contributions to the competition and their reasons for wanting to stay.
As the Ultimate Veto Power holder, Barry was given the power to save one housemate from eviction. He chose Aikou, who is now safe from this week’s eviction. With Aikou safe, Chimsom Chuka, Tram, Temi Nkem, Keivo, Ricky, Sheba, Yusuf, Bells, Flora, Oyin and Bluethopia are the 11 housemates now facing possible eviction in Week 8.
The 11 nominated housemates are now subject to the public vote, with voting available through the MyDStvand MyGOtv apps and the Africa Magic website. Voting closes at 9pm on Thursday.
With Barry already guaranteed a place in the finale, the question now is which of the remaining housemates will earn their spot in the final weeks of the competition.
Big Brother Naija Season 11 airs on DStv Channel 198 and GOtv Channel 49, and is also available on DStv Stream. Catch the live eviction shows every Sunday on Pearl Magic Prime Channel 148 and on GOtv Channel 303.
