What do the Housemates have to say to Biggie today?

Today Biggie had another Diary session with the Housemates to find out how they were feeling and of course, how they were preparing for the Task tonight. Biggie had a different range of questions this afternoon, that drew different reactions from the Housemates.

Let’s take a look at the responses from some of the Housemates, starting with the two on top this week.

The Head Team

Erica told Biggie that she was feeling a little anxious about tonight’s Task despite the Housemates doing a lot to prepare. She felt that she had to show people that she was tough in the beginning, but is finally finding her own rhythm now and is enjoying her experience as HoH. When Biggie asked her who she would like to greet, she mentioned her best friend and her mother whom she misses very much. She added that she hoped to Win the grand prize so she could spoil her mom when she comes out of the House. Erica wanted to be able to pick her own music in the House, mentioning that she likes all types of House and electronic dance music. Lastly, Erica asked Biggie if the House could have access to the jacuzzi.

Kiddwaya reported that this week has been the best in the House so far. He spoke to Biggie in high spirits, singing Erica’s praises. Kiddwaya thinks that Erica feels she needs to exert her authority because she is female and quiet, but says he is doing his best to assist her because he is ‘just but a humble servant’ and she already has what it takes. When asked if he wanted to send a message to anyone, Kidd was passionate and loving as usual as he extended his love to two of his favourite girls, Lenek and DJ Cuppy. As expected, all Kiddwaya wants from outside is his resistance bands, a skipping rope and some weights.

Power to the mamas

So many of our Housemates are thinking about their moms it seems. Biggie managed to bring forth some tears and reminiscent faces from almost everyone with his one important question: If you could send a message to two people, who would you send it to and what would you say?

After Erica’s message to her more, Kaisha was next to express how much she misses her mother as well as her brothers. She told Biggie that she knew her mother was praying for her, and she wanted her mother to keep praying for her. She added that she missed her brothers and though she had missed their birthdays she remembered and just hadn’t had the chance to send her fond wishes. Kaisha was the only one who did not want anything from outside, just yet.

Mamas boys

Brighto was in good spirits this afternoon and when asked the same question by Biggie, he said he would definitely send a message to his mother and thank her for all the prayers and the support. He added that he would also send a message to his sister and that he loves both of them very much.

Ozo was generally low after his ongoing altercation with Dorathy continued to today which he told Biggie about. Never the less, when Biggie asked him about his shout-outs, his face lit up as he spoke about his mother. He clearly thinks a lot of her as he told Biggie that his mom is partially responsible for the man he is today. He described her as hard-working and dedicated, and also the strongest woman he has ever met. He added that should he become involved in a relationship with someone like her, he would be the luckiest person in the world. Ozo also spoke very fondly of his youngest sister who he said was ‘the love of [his] life’ and one of the best things that ever happened to him, describing their connection to Biggie at length with a very fond smile on his face that could warm any heart.

Neo did not have to think long on who to send a message to. He told Biggie that he definitely wanted to tell his mother that he misses her so much and asked that she keep praying for him. Secondly, and uniquely, Neo wanted to send a message to his whole community, relaying that he is very proud of his community and he loves and is very proud of them. He added passionately that he misses the whole crew.

The crew

Speaking of crews, Tolanibaj cried instantly when Biggies asked her the question, saying that she wanted to send a message to her sisters and her friends. She wanted to tell her sisters that everything will be ok and hoped that she was making them all proud. To her homies who would be represented by her boy Jason, her message was ‘Geng-geng’ and also that she hoped she was making them proud. When Biggie asked what she would want from outside, she asked for a facetime with her sisters and some encouraging words from her fans outside.

Daddy’s girl

Wathoni also shed a few tears at Biggie’s question, telling Biggie that she would send messages to her dad and her cousin Joy. She knows that her dad is not surprised by the way she has been in the House thus far because she has been herself. She wanted to thank her dad for all his support of her mom and her son. She added that she missed their arguments and loved him very much. Wathoni told Biggie that her cousin Joy was always supportive of her, and she loved and missed her a lot. When asked by Biggie what she would want, Wathoni said she misses her sons voice- especially when he calls her ‘Mummy’.

For sure it cannot be easy for the Housemates who have been away from their families for 7 weeks now, 4 of which have been spent in the House, and with your help, they have lasted this long. We stay watching as they stay pushing.
