The Big Brother Naija Show: Enough Of This Nonsense!

By Udoisoh Moses
There's a notorious programme just recently concluded called THE BIG BROTHER NAIJA. The winner of this notorious show walked away with a whopping N25 million and a breathtaking car. All that is required to win this show is to be Live with a bunch of fellow crazy, irresponsible people, do all sorts of immoral things, and, viola, you're the winner.
Next thing, you're called a celebrity, winning big advertisement contracts and becoming the face of multinational companies. In fact one of them has already been made the ambassador of entertainment by the Plateau State Government (you are shocked?)
If only there could be an educating version of this programme. If only they could house some intelligent people in like manner and make them compete for similar prizes. But, no! Our people do not encourage sanity. Our society promotes evil over good, indecency over decency, immorality over morality, and ungodliness over godliness.
The best in Mathematics competitions will go home with either a carton of cowbell milk or Indomie noodles, ridiculous stipends and laughable prizes. Yet these morons in BBN earned millions for coming to suck breasts, speak thrash, display nudity, and get under the sheets on International TVs.
