A new season of the fan-favourite reality show, Big Brother Naija is reportedly hitting the airwaves sooner than anticipated.
According to several social media posts shared by African Magic on Wednesday, May 20, it stated that its fifth season, the BBNaija show will run an online audition process from May 20 till May 30.
While a launch date is yet to be confirmed, the upcoming show is expected to ride on the success of previous highly successful editions. Top on the list of questions is how organizers plan on managing the mammoth crowd that its auditions attract especially amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Following the success of the fourth season of Big Brother Naija, MultiChoice Nigeria has announced that the fifth season of the show will premiere in July 2020.
It, however, advises potential contestants to record a two-minute video of themselves stating why they should be picked to be a housemate in Season 5 of Big Brother Naija.
Contestants are also expected to log on to the BBAudition website to fill out the online registration form and upload their videos.
The online audition, they, said, is free and open to interested male and female participants who are of Nigerian nationality with a valid Nigerian passport. They must be at least 21 years of age by June 1, 2020.
The Chief Executive Officer of MultiChoice Nigeria, John Ugbe who spoke on the return of BBNaija noted that; “Big Brother Naija has been widely regarded as one of Africa’s biggest entertainment exports, being the biggest showcase of Nigeria’s diversity outside of core Nollywood. This fifth season promises to be more adventurous, exciting and entertaining, and will undoubtedly be the biggest thing on African television in 2020.”
The Big Brother Naija reality TV show continues to produce some of the country’s biggest TV personalities and pop culture influencers since its maiden edition in 2006.
