Liquorose (Roseline Omokhoa Afije) is 26-year-old contestant on the Big Brother Naija (or BBNaija) Season 6 reality show. The show kicked off on 24 July 2021, but it was not until 25 July that viewers laid eyes on Rose and the other female housemates. The organisers, in an attempt to spice things up, chose to unveil the male housemates only, on the first day.
Roseline Afije is one of the few housemates with an already large fan base before she even stepped foot on the reality show. Her Instagram account already had over 700K followers because she is a member of the all-female dance group GGB Dance Crew (also known as Girls Get Bold Dance Crew). Likely, her already built followership gives her an edge to win the competition, who knows?
Regardless, it will be a stiff contest for the NGN90 million grand prize, and we can’t wait for the drama that will come out of it. Let us go into more details about Roseline starting with a summary of the top ten facts about her.
