BBN: Gathering’s not a death sentence
With the recent announcement by Multichoice, of the fifth season of Big Brother Naija premiering this July, it is another opportunity for critics of the show to wear their toga of opprobrium. This time, their argument will assume a more arrogant posture over what, in their estimation, is a narcissist disposition of the organisers in the face of a world-ravaging pandemic.
Need I say that Multichoice, organisers of BBN, is a continental company, run by think tanks, and I don’t see how the sentiments of some Facebook junkies count here. People are entitled to the kind of entertainment they choose, but as a fan, I have maintained that Big Brother is not an adventure reality show, but a lifestyle genre. It has its peculiar shtick, which, I believe, is a mental health game – relating to human’s emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It is all about how we think, feel, act — how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices.
