Nigerian singer Portable has voiced his dissatisfaction with the current season of Big Brother Naija, arguing that the popular reality TV show has lost its former charm and excitement. In a recent post on his Instagram story, he expressed his feelings about the show, suggesting that it has deviated from the engaging content that fans once looked forward to.
Portable’s comments came after the Grand Finale of Big Brother Naija Season 9, titled “No Loose Guard,” which concluded with Kellyrae emerging as the winner among eight finalists. The singer’s social media remarks included a playful jab at the show’s current format, asking, “So na today BIG BROTHER show finish lol….So who was the winner? Did you watch the show?” His tone implied a sense of disconnection from the season’s developments and a longing for the excitement that characterized earlier editions.
Moreover, Portable emphasized that he believes his participation could revitalize the show. He claimed that if he were offered N100 million to join the cast, he would bring a unique flair and “cruise” to the experience, potentially reigniting the enthusiasm among viewers and fans. This statement highlights his confidence in his ability to contribute to the entertainment value of the show, which he feels has diminished over time.
The singer’s remarks resonate with many fans who have expressed concerns about the recent seasons of Big Brother Naija, feeling that they lack the drama and intrigue that initially captivated audiences. Portable’s candid critique serves as a reflection of the ongoing conversations among viewers about the evolution of reality television in Nigeria and the expectations they hold for future seasons.
As the reality TV landscape continues to evolve, it remains to be seen how producers will respond to feedback from both past contestants like Portable and the viewing public.
