BBNaija 2020 Update Day 25: Exposing Secrets
It was a tell-all last night as the Housemates spilled it all from heartbreaks to exams and weddings.
Where two or more Housemates are gathered, surely there will be banter. Last night there were way more than two Housemates gathered at the dining table and premium banter and secrets flowed from their lips.
Heartbreak Saga
What happens when one’s heart gets broken? What reactions would the heartbroken display? These were the questions the Housemates answered but to make it more fun, they answered on behalf of other Lockdown Housemates. Trikytee said Nengi would probably cry and break things while he worried about the safety of the man who would ever break Wathoni’s heart. In Brighto’s case, it didn’t take them long to decipher what he would do. They were certain someone was going to leave the house and it wasn’t Brighto. What made it funnier was that Brighto himself came to confirm that he would send her packing. This soon led to the topic of signing prenuptial agreements as a measure to deal with infidelity should the situation arise. Lucy argued for it and said it was the best course of action. She claimed if she ever found her man getting intimate with another woman in their house, she was keeping the house and kicking him out.
Examination cheats
Writing exams are serious business and it was refreshingly funny to hear the comical views of some of the Housemates towards exams especially cheating. From the elite ways of cheating to the absolutely dumb techniques, the Housemates listed them all. Taking a trip back to their school days, Trikytee and Prince cited all their experiences in the exam hall. At some point, it felt like they were exposing carefully guarded exam cheat secrets and you guys had to let them know that it was okay and time to switch off their microphones.
Brother TrikyTee, laycon, prince and co please stop casting exams malpractice skills for students o 😭😂😂 #BBNaija

Wedding bants
One of the rich traditions of Nigeria are the wedding ceremonies and the Housemates made this a focus of their late-night discussion. From the bride price of different tribes and ethnic groups to wedding guests and dishes served at weddings, they took time to comically exchange bants about them. Talking about bride price, Prince told us about how it’s done where he came from and how long the list to fulfil marital obligations to the bride’s family can be. They argued at how ridiculous some of the items on the list were and cited instances where friends and family had gone through the arduous task of fulfilling these obligations.
Prince description of weddings was so precise that you guys vouched for him with your own experience.
😂😂😂😂😂I can relate to Prince’s gist,my mum did the most for my wedding too😂😂😂They always do the most🤦♀️🤦♀️

Then it came to the number of wedding guests in attendance. Vee was extremely vocal here talking about how small she wanted the guests at her wedding to be but coming from a Yoruba home and with the type of mum she had, it was definitely going to be tougher than she thought.
The funny thing about Nigerian mothers is that when it comes to their children’s wedding, they are almost the same and that’s why a few of you could relate.
I’m Vee right now, talks me and my moms been having over my wedding 😹😹😹

You guys heard her and not only were you already planning her wedding to Neo, but you also had jokes too.
Laycon and vee with some housemates having discussion on marriage preparation and number of guests that should attend.
Vee: I told my mum I don't want old people in my wedding just 100guests.
Me:Maybe we should tell her Akpofure family is very large in Delta State. 🤣🤣🤣

When it comes to Tasks, Biggie goes all out and based on the discussion the Housemates had about weddings, a few of you had already started plotting what Biggie could be cooking up for them.

It’s always interesting whenever the Housemates have humorous discussions about regular issues and in a moment devoid of worries, let their guards down and have fun.
