It’s been a crazy week in Biggie’s House and with today’s surprise Eviction, nothing can get crazier than this. Or can it?

The Pepper Dem Gang have undoubtedly had a busy week – from the special visitors to the exciting Tasks, they’ve definitely had a blast. Until Biggie cut it short with an Eviction twist. Apparently in the Pepper Dem House, anything is bound to happen.

What do the Pepper Dem Housemates anticipate when Ebuka appears on their screen? Now imagine how they felt as soon as he walked into Biggie’s House. The smiles and hugs from the Housemates couldn’t hide the anxiety and fear they felt. Could you tell too?

Dressed in his mustard suit (slay king as usual), Ebuka’s walked in with a sense of warmth and colour into the House, especially after the intense fight. The Pepper Dem Gang have had such an exciting week with visits from Nigeria’s finest stars; however, was this a pleasant visit though?

Another surprise guest the House received was Mr Joe from Deloitte and you know what that means right?

As per tradition, the Housemates had a chat with Ebuka about everything that went down in the House.

While at it, Tacha and Mercy did not fail to go at it on what may appear to be their fifth fight round.

“What has been the most challenging part about staying in the House?” Ebuka asked Seyi. To which Seyi replied that staying in the House with what he termed as “these crazy Housemates” has been difficult for him. In the chat, Diane and Omashola revealed to Ebuka that they are surprised to find themselves moving to the fourteenth week in Biggie’s House. Not coming into the game with a strategy like they said, seemed to be working well for them, perhaps?

The moment Ebuka asked the Nominated Housemates to go pack their bags, that was when the Pepper Dem Gang knew it was about to go down. An Eviction!

Slowly, Ike, Tacha, Mike, Elozonam and Cindy packed up their luggage in preparation for Ebuka’s impromptu message. Who would it be?

“Cindy, you have just been Evicted from the House,” Ebuka said in the lightest tone and we couldn’t help but wonder if an Eviction had just happened. Nonetheless, the other Housemates put up for Eviction this week couldn’t shake off the feeling that their names could be called up next.

Amidst hugs and goodbyes from the Pepper Dem Gang to Cindy, the cold and tense atmosphere in the House couldn’t go unnoticed.

We will definitely miss Cindy in the House but we bet the Pepper Dem dancefloor will miss her more.

Wrapping up this season Thursday Wager Presentation, the Pepper Dem Gang gave us a night of laughter.

For putting up a rib-cracking performance at the Comedy Show, the Pepper Dem Gang have won their final Wager Task in the Big Brother Naija House. Working as one House, the Pepper Dem Gang delivered their best to Basketmouth, Ik Osakioduwa, Chigul, Buchi and to you too.

For people who were not comedians, it was quite entertaining seeing the Pepper Dem Gang bring their funny sides to the stage. With Omashola acting as MC, the Housemates set the show on the road and it was nothing short of what was expected, With Mike’s storytelling about the food hoarding in the House to Cindy, Elozonam and Mercy displaying their talent at a fake audition, it was a lit experience. One thing we know is that the Housemates can get into character when need be.

Remember it’s a six act challenge so, the Housemates Peppered us with more of their presentations. This time, it was between Ike and Tacha. As Ike was dropping them sweet lines to Tacha, the Housemates kept screaming “na dem” and when Ike was done, Tacha dusted her slippers and fled because those lines were too good to be true. The play took another turn as the female Housemates tried their mouths in the wooing game. Starting with Cindy and Mike to Diane and Elozonam, the females showed us that they took can play this game or could it be that have been wooed so many times that the lines flow fluently?

Frodd and Mercy recreated scenes from thrift markets and this act of theirs had the guests cracking up because they had all the details. This performance by Frodd made Basketmouth suspicious and he asked if Frodd once sold clothes.

Basketmouth, Chigul, Buchi and some of the cast of flatmates gave the Pepper Dem kudos for presenting a wonderful comedy show. One by one, the guests mentioned their favourite parts of their performances and what they could have done better. All in all, the Housemates were given thumbs up for their presentations.

Though comedy is not for everyone, the Pepper Dem Gang took what they had and presented a Wager that will be talked about for a long time.

As the journey to the Big Brother Naija finale draws to an end, the Pepper Dem Gang must cross one more hurdle – The Final Wager.

The Pepper Dem gang got their brief for the final Wager Task and it is to present a comedy show. This will be their final Wager Task and pressure is on them to go out with a bang. They did lose their first Wager Task, hopefully, there won’t be a repeat this time.

The Pepper Dem Gang are expected to present at least six acts. The acts must include a stand-up comedy. We wonder which of the Housemates can pull this off. The Housemates are also allowed to put up individual performances, but by the end of all the performances, each Housemate must have featured in one.

What’s a comedy show without guests to entertain and give a good laugh? Maybe that’s why there are rumours of special guests dropping by for the comedy show. Biggie did give hint saying “there will be one stage, possible guests or not…” Yesterday, the Housemates had stars from Nollywood dropping by the Pepper Dem House for a thrilling time. Not only did the Pepper Dem Gang get to interact and get motivational nuggets from the guests, but they also enjoyed the luxury of dining with them. Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope there will be guests to make the show extra spicy tonight.

All good things come to an end or painted on. Turns out Biggie is bored with the graffiti the Pepper Dem Gang put up and they will be taking it down. Paint will be sent in and they will be asked to do something different on the wall. On the bright side, they did get to take pictures of themselves and their paintings. Now they have memories to last them for a while.

The best part of this Comedy Show Task is, no matter how it ends up, we are sure to have a good laugh. Let’s hope the Housemates recognize the humour in their Task and make the preparation a fun-filled one.

As part of the celebrations for the top ten finalists, Biggie treated the Pepper Dem Gang to an exquisite dinner with Nigerian stars.

What’s a dinner date without glam outfits? Well, Biggie understands what it means to be a Pepper Dem Housemate, which is why he gifted them with gorgeous outfits, courtesy of Moiselle Clothing.

Now, imagine going on a dinner date with Mr Ibu, Patience Ozokwo, Mai Atafo, Osa Ighodalo, Chinedu Ikedieze, Dakore Akande and Lala Akindoju? Quit imagining and see how it went down through our eyes…

Moiselle Clothing came through with the finest corporate wears, befitting for the celebratory occasion. What other way to dine with the stars, right?

Now, this is ‘how star do’.

“Who could it be?” This question was the song of the night as the Housemates kept wondering and guessing. You were not left out in the guess which left AdukeAde wondering who exactly Biggie was bringing to dinner.

Imagine the surprise on their faces as they saw some of Nigeria’s finest in the entertainment industry. The screams that met their arrival sure made Patience Ozokwo, Chinedu Ikedieze, Mai Atafo, Osas Ighodalo, Dakore Akande, Lala Akindoju and Mr Ibu feel at home the moment they walked through the Pepper Dem doors. They even hinted Biggie to leave them in the House as the top finalists which left the Housemates nodding in agreement and we wonder if the Pepper Dem Gang winner knew what that meant. Is the winner ready to share his or her grand prize with the stars?

Food is the universal language in the Pepper Dem House and it was not surprising seeing them grab their plates the second they walked into the garden.

Who would blame them, did you see the food variety Biggie provided? See for yourself.

The highlight of tonight was seeing each of the stars talk the Pepper Dem Gang through surviving in the industry. From personal and career balance, keeping fit and knowing how to find your career strength, the stars dished it all. Tacha didn’t hide her excitement as she asked each of them questions while adverting her brand in the process. Go, girl!

This was evident when we caught the Housemates spending the night re-sharing the bits of advice they got from tonight’s chat with the stars. We’re sure you also left with wisdom nuggets, right?

What’s a lit moment if it’s not going to be captured? Trust Oppo Mobile to come through with the phones to enable the Pepper Dem Housemates capture the moment with the stars tonight.

The House featured a lot of exciting moments with the stars. What was your best highlight tonight? Well, for your faves, every second was a highlight and we’re glad they were able to capture these memorable flashes.

In an Oppo Slippery Stairs challenge, Omashola and Elozonam emerged as the winners in today’s Task.

Divided into two teams – white and green, each team fought for a reward box from Oppo. The most interesting element in this challenge is that the Task featured two winners, one from each team. Team white consisting of Ike, Mercy, Omashola, Frodd and Tacha and team green with Mike, Cindy, Diane, Elozonam and Seyi.

Let’s talk about what they had to fight for – aka what was at stake

The winner from each team got rewarded with a cash prize and an Oppo F11 Pro Phone for a loved one. All they had to do was to fetch the card in the Oppo box to get the details of the reward.

As the name of the Task implies, the Housemates had to attempt to climb to the top of the stairs and fetch the reward card in the reward box. The first Housemate in each team to successfully fetch the reward card in the box wins. Easy?

As usual, Biggie set his rules.

The Pepper Dem Gang had to play the challenge in their teams and therefore, not allowed to join another team. Once the winning Housemate collects the reward card, the game stops immediately. One more thing, the Housemates were not allowed to hold on to the railing of the stairs or use the railing to assist them as they climb the slippery stairs.

It was hard keeping a straight face as we watched the Housemates struggle to get to the top of the slippery stairs. For them, it was time to have some fun! From Mercy’s merry-go-rounding to Tacha’s multiple falls on the stairs, the Housemates were definitely in for a slippery ride.

Team white began the challenge with Omashola emerging as the winner. One thing this team didn’t understand was that this was an individual challenge. We guess the frustration from the failed attempts prompted them to push Omashola to the top of the stairs. Go teamwork, right?

Next, team white gave us Elozonam as the winning Housemate. They all competed fair and square and in a matter of seconds, Elozonam slid to the top and grabbed his reward.

For being the first Housemates in their teams to get to the reward box first, Omashola and Elozonam won a sum of five hundred thousand Naira each and an Oppo F11 Pro Phone for their loved ones.

It’s almost the end of the Season and it has featured a lot of exciting Tasks with rewards attached to them. With this in mind, who do you think should be crowned as the Task champion in the House?

With an opportunity to win two amazing gifts courtesy of Oppo, the Pepper Dem Gang set out to have fun.

Gathered in the lounge, Seyi delivered the details of the Task to the Housemates. For the Task, the Housemates were required to divide themselves into two teams. Once they were done with that, they were to spend 20 minutes for preparation. We could see they were excited for this Task because they burst into cheers when it was announced.

Quickly, they grouped themselves into teams Green and White. The Green team had Mike, Diane, Seyi, Elozonam and Cindy while team White comprised of Ike, Omashola, Tacha, Mercy and Frodd.

With head swinging from side to side, Ollie showed us he can be the life of any party. Dishing zanku moves, Ollie Peppered the Housemates and brought some smiles to our faces. If not because Biggie put the Housemates on freeze mode, some of them would have joined Ollie in the dance. Anyways, the spirit of fun has been ignited with Ollie.

In a bid to resolve the issue of missing food items from the Pepper Dem Kitchen, Elozonam called a town hall meeting in the Big Brother Naija lounge.

Omashola raised the issue of a bunch of plantain going missing from the Big Brother Naija Kitchen. The plantain which he was hoping to fry to accompany his rice went missing at the last minute and Omashola wasn’t going to let it slide. Tracing the journey of the plantains from when their Wager food items came into the House, Omashola was awed that a Housemate could have consumed that quantity of plantain. Frodd also had something to say as he screamed from the bedroom that thunder will fire the thief. Way to go Frodd.

As Head of House, Elozonam will not allow this theft to go unsolved during his tenure and so he called for a family meeting in the lounge. In this gathering, Cindy pointed fingers at Frodd saying that the last time there was a case of missing plantains, he was behind it. This statement uttered by Cindy caused Frodd to nearly butt head with her as an argument ensued between them.

Calming the situation between Frodd and Cindy, Elozonam made his voice heard and proceeded to start a search. In unison, the Housemates made their way to the locker to fish out the culprit. Unsuccessful in this part of the House, they proceeded to the bedroom and finishing their search in the HoH room.

Interestingly, Mike and Tacha got into a verbal match during the search as Mike questioned why Tacha had a bottle of honey in her locker. In her defence, Tacha screamed that she specifically ordered for it to add to her facial scrub. Well, what can we say to that?

After the pointless search, Ike told Mike that his spirit was telling him that Seyi was responsible for the missing plantains. He went further to say that it can’t be a lady that is responsible for this theft stating that the person has to be sleek to carry out such operation. Whatever the outcome, he and Mike concluded that Elozonam was a bonafide HoH for carrying out the elaborate search for the plantain.
