In spite of the fact that it’s for a Task, there’s something artistic about how the BBNaija Housemates pen their poems in preparation for their Wager Task.

The way we are going to win this is by our conviction.. It’s got to be from the heart,

Kiddwaya.

For this week’s Wager Task, the Housemates have been asked to present the topic – ‘Love is a language men and women speak differently’ as a debate and as a poetry showcase. With the hour of presentation drawing close, the Housemates spent the best part of the night writing and going over the poems they had penned down.

Say it with passion

The presentation won’t rely solely on how gifted they are with the pen but also their delivery. That was why Kiddwaya reiterated that they put a lot more effort into their delivery.

Sounds like subs

Love is a touchy subject especially with the ships in the House and since the topic for the Wager Task focused on the complexities of relationships, it wasn’t hard to read a deeper meaning to it and according to you guys. A few of the poems sounded like subtle comments at each other.

These housemates steady subbing each other with these poems.
Listen Carefully #bbnaijialockdown

Erica's poem is a direct sub to Kidd and he's supposed to defend himself by replying. That's the only way he can clear that thought Erica has in her head. Buh Kidd as a sharp guy has pushed it to Laycon, Now Laycon would have to defend a Sub meant for Kidd #BBNaija pic.twitter.com/B2WW1zVmCh

But not everyone agreed and asked that you just enjoy their poems in peace.

Abeg they are writing love poem for a task, they aren't indirectly talking to anyone. You guys are too imaginary. You don't always have to read meanings to everything because when the housemates act otherwise, you start trolling. Just watch the show in peace. #BBNaija

This will be Kiddwaya’s chance to possibly be the second HoH to ever win the Wager Task this Lockdown season.

Birthday wishes for Vee

The night didn’t end without the Housemates saying a word about Vee and sharing birthday wishes. From attesting to her loyalty and how much of a friend she is, the Housemates shared how much Vee meant to them and wished her well. But the high point was Neo’s heartwarming and emotional speech that melted Vee’s heart and had her in tears. She wasn’t the only one, as someone turned on the waterworks on the streets of Twitter too.

OMG!! I'm so emotional rn. Love is so sweet and beautiful. Neo you are the best! Happy birthday Vee once again. You are loved #BBNaija

All in all, it was a great night. Hopefully, it turns out to be a better day for the Housemates as they take on the Wager Task later today. Judging by their prepartions, how do you think it will turn out?

Remember to vote for your favourite Housemate to keep the person in Biggie’s House.
