Yinka vs A Unanimous Vote For Chem

EbukaI don't know whether to laugh hysterically, cry or throw things in a fuming rage. What's happening with Big Brother Nigeria is such sacrilege that it's impossible to know how to cope.

The production and direction and every single thing that makes it a TV show is so unbelievably shockingly bad it's not possible to express it in words. 

I don't understand why Endemol isn't issuing us with frenzied apologies for how appalling their production is - while having the hugest crisis and crackage backstage.

I feel really sorry for the housemates - despite it being their own fault for entering in the first place - but still, they've been dumped in the house, they haven't been given even a smidgen of inspiration to be exciting and clearly nobody gives a stuff about what they're doing at all.

It was the first nomination of the season, it's supposed to be one of the big events of the show and it was soo pathetic it was physically painful to watch. I've gotten so used to the terrible sound it wasn't a surprise when it kept disappearing, but it was when it turned out to be the best part of everything.

The editing of the nominations was the worst I've ever seen and included long shot interuptions of housemates lounging around doing nothing.

Them saying who they were nominating had not even a slightest hint of tension, pace nor drama and when they announced the two final names to them - the entire thing collapsed into a anti-climactic, hurtful silence, that was emphasised by everything.

I don't know how I made it out without having a heart attack and was thankfully saved by going wild with my fast forward button, in between smashing my remote. Also, I was quizzy to see who loathes who and was surprised by how uninamously everyone voted for Ichemata 'cos I didn't have one clue that she existed.

As per usually happens, they were all ridiculous when they were voting - they've all had over a week to think about who they're gonna vote for and yet they insisted on wasting eons of time going: "Ummmm... " and rubbing their chins as if they didn't know.

The only one who didn't and who said his first vote immediately was Ebuka, which is why I'll put his nominations first. Here they are:

Ebuka:

Gideon:
