Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, a popular media personality and former contestant on the first season of Big Brother Naija, recently shared his all-time favorite participants from the reality show. He revealed that his favorites are the housemates who exceeded his expectations.
During an appearance on Channels TV’s program, Rubbin’ Minds, hosted by Beauty Tukura and Prince Nelson, Ebuka mentioned some standout contestants. He particularly mentioned Gideon from his own season, praising him for his amazing presence. Ebuka also expressed his fondness for housemates who surprised him, as he often forms initial impressions based on their profiles before the show.

Ebuka further stated that he enjoys housemates who bring drama to the show, play the game strategically, and stick to their plans. He mentioned Prince, who had a noticeable following, and highlighted the competitive dynamic between Miracle and Tobi in their respective season. However, he also noted that he has grown less fond of contestants who claim they are just being themselves without a game plan, as he believes there is a substantial cash prize at stake and it’s essential to approach the show strategically.
Summing up, Ebuka expressed his appreciation for participants who go beyond his initial expectations, bring drama, and actively engage in the game, while acknowledging that certain housemates, like Miracle and Tobi, managed to balance competition and interpersonal relationships effectively.
