Next year’s season of Big Brother will include South African and Nigerian housemates.
In the upcoming season of the reality TV programme, former Big Brother contestants from Nigeria and South Africa (Mzansi) will appear.
The former competitors will appear in the episode from 2023 dubbed “Big Brother face-off.”
All of the previous champions will be gathered on the show for the new spinoff “Big Brother Face-Off.”
Only past champions will compete in the “all-stars” competition between Big Brother Naija and Big Brother Mzansi.
MultiChoice and M-Net have disclosed ongoing plans to bring together all the victors on “Big Brother Face-Off” after seven and five seasons of Big Brother Naija and Big Brother Mzansi, respectively.
“In 2023, we’ll be beginning the year off with a boom, which will be the heavyweights of Africa coming together on the Big Brother version of South Africa against Nigeria,” asserts Nomsa Philiso, head of programming at MultiChoice.
We know how well Big Brother Mzansi and Big Brother Naija perform, but we just felt that it was time to combine the two. This has been an incredible, incredible feat for us. We just think it’s going to be wonderful, and we’re happy about that,” she continued.
Former BBNaija “Lock Down” housemate Dorathy Bachor expressed her enthusiasm over the merger on her social media profiles as a response to the news.
