Big Brother Naija Titans show was fully launched last year in October. The organizers of the Big Brother Africa reality show opened auditions for Nigerians and South Africans combined in the first season. The first show is scheduled to show on Sunday, January 15.
During a press briefing at Enugu, the chief spokesperson of the Labour Party presidential campaign committee, Dr. Yunusa Tanko, disclosed that the main purpose of the show is to distract the youth of the country not to cast their votes.
While speaking more about the reality show, Dr. Tanko claimed that the show was being sponsored by an opposition party.
He said; “We have credible information that it’s being sponsored by one of the major opposition parties to distract the Nigerian youths from changing the leadership that has placed them in perilous times laced with abject poverty.”
“As a party, we are not against reality shows because it helps the Nigerian youths to break the poverty line but for now, for the common good of all it should be shifted to another convenient date,” Tanko added.
