The much anticipated #BBNaija Season Five has kicked off. Meet the 20 housemates who have been unveiled for the “Lockdown Edition”.
BBNaija host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, introduced the housemates last night before they were each told to walk into the newly renovated Big Brother house.
But, before then, Ebuka asked each to tell the audience what they are bringing to the house. Many of them said they will bring entertainment and will love to keep it real.
Some promised to get into fights, others said they will get into relationships or conspiracies.
These housemates will be competing to win the season five edition and walk away with the 85 million naira grand prize.
