Fans of the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality TV show have expressed displeasure over the eviction method adopted for the 2020 edition of the show by its organizers.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports the reactions followed the Sunday eviction of Kaisha, who scored more votes of fans than Trikytee, Wathoni and Neo, who are left in the house.
Recall that the organizers of the BBNaija had introduced some twists to the show, including putting all housemates up for eviction, except for the head of house and deputy head of house.
Fans of the reality TV show are then expected to vote for their favourite housemates, with four housemates to get the least votes left at the mercy of the other surviving housemates.
The surviving housemates then each take turns in the diary room to nominate at least one of the four housemates with the lowest votes for eviction during the Sunday live eviction show.
The housemate who has the most nominations will then be the one who gets evicted, meaning Kaisha had to leave before other housemates who had less vote than her.
TNG reports the eviction method adopted by the organizers of the show also affected Lilo who had more votes than others when she was evicted.
The perceived weakness of the eviction method was not obvious when Eric and Tochi were evicted because they had the least votes from fans.
The method, which is more like a reverse of the eviction method adopted for previous editions of the show, has not gone down well with fans of the BBNaija.
The previous method puts fans at total control of who is evicted after housemates must have nominated a number of fellow housemates for possible eviction.
With the new method, fans perceive the organizers left too much power in the hands of fellow housemates to be the ones that choose who goes home after viewers have decided.
What?!!!! Kaisha got more votes than Neo and wathoni and she still left before them. Now that’s fucked! pic.twitter.com/IsNQVqRrNX

I'm done voting, let the house mates save who they want. Like… Wtf Kaisha is not even among the lowest 3!!! If the housemates keep voting out who they don't like, then the house will be left with lover birds. That's not the drama I signed up for.#BBNaijaLocdown pic.twitter.com/RSA6qd8Sh2

If it was the other method, Neo won’t up for possible eviction at all. The housemates won’t put him up. But Kaisha would have been up every week. So it’s still kinda the same
