Last week, five minutes into the house, housemates in the Downville house were told that they were up for eviction after a random nomination machine selected the two balls representing their countries.
Julio, Hilda from Tanzania and Maneta, Teclar from Zimbabwe were up for eviction the whole of last week. Hilda had even won the HoH task that was supposed to start on Monday but this will not be the case after she fell a victim of those that were evicted during the Sunday live show.
Hilda tried to play the game as much as possible but Africa said no. Initially all the housemates were asked to leave the house. Maneta's name was the first to be called and told to leave the stage but little did she know that she was still in the game and going to the Upville house.
Maneta got to the Upville house and told the VIP stars that she was fresh from home. She now becomes the most beautiful housemate in the Upville house and she is going to cause a stampede any time. Maneta's beauty is the reason she beat the rest because in the first week, names are a problem for the voters.
Zimbabwe now has two housemates playing as individuals in the Upville house after Teclar got evicted. Tanzanian housemates, Hilda and Julio got evicted too during the Sunday live show.
Maneta, Teclar from Tanzania and Julio, Hilda from Zimbabwe are up for eviction.
The no nonsense Big Brother comes up with new twists every season but this one is off the hook. The Big Brother Stargame house has two houses i.e. the Upville otherwise the VIPs who don't get nominated and Downville which has all the housemates who entered as couples.
Nominations will this time round be done by a random nomination device which spins disco balls representing the various countries in the Upville house. A ball is then selected and the country on the ball are the housemates who go up for eviction.
IK swung into action with the ball game and in the end Tanzania and Zimbabwe fell victims of next Sunday's possible eviction. Hilda and Julio from Tanzania and Maneta and Tecla are all up for possible eviction next Sunday.
The girls could not believe it that before they could even know the names for the guys, they were already up for eviction. The resorted to drinking realizing that every minute in the house an asset as the dream of spending 91 days in the house was under check.
Africa had better save Hilda from Tanzania because she is a package looking at babes in the house. Meanwhile, one of the housemates from Nigeria said a short prayer for the housemates who are up for eviction so that they survive the Sunday axe.
After the VIPs had gone to the house the show crossed to the Downville housemates who also happened to be couples ranging from friends, lovers, brothers and sisters.
Angola - They've been friends for three years. They are very good friends and the gal says he is single. They want to be themselves.
Botswana - Eve and Edith - They have no strategy they are just going to be themselves and they promise not to do the illegal stuff.
Ghana - Mildred and Keitta have been together for a year and half. Mildred got attracted to Keitta because he is calm. They say their affair is complicated with a lot of differences. They however contradicted themselves during the auditions.
Kenya - Alex and Malonza(Brothers)
Liberia - Luke and Yadel have been friends for 8 years but they are not dating and they have partners outside the house. She says that he loves the ladies and will have at least 3 ladies in the house.
Malawi - Afe and Wa (Cousins) - One of the is single and the other si not.
Namibia - Jescia and Junior (Friends) - They say they love each other and when IK asked them why they had to chose each other, they seemed not to have an answer.
Nigeria - Chris and Ola(Not even friends) - They are ready to emulate their predecessors who won the previous seasons.
South Africa - Keagan and Lee - The gals in the audience were pretty excited about these ones.
Sierra Leone - Dalphin and Zainab - These gals have been friends for seven years and it is the first time Sierra Leone is being represented on the Big Brother Africa show.
Tanzania - Hilda and Julio met when they were still kids and they are not dating, have supportive partners outside the house.
Uganda - Jaenette and Kyle - Not friends with benefit and the gal says not now but may be later.
Zambia - Born of the same mother and different fathers.
Zimbabwe - Maneta and Teclar - Not sure of whether they are dating. The housemates from all over Africa made their way to the house and the action in the house now begins.
The Big Brother Africa family is growing and it continues to grow with Meryl and Mwisho who hooked up in the house having their first child. Meryl gave birth to a bouncing baby girl on Monday.
Meryl and Mwisho held their engagement party in the Big Brother house which was seen by over 40 African countries. Meryl has shocked many fans as looking at the way she was playing her game, many dod not expect them to come this far.
They have both had two chances at the Big Brother game and come out without the money but at least they have something out of Big Brother talk of finding love in a hopeless place, said a fan.
Mwisho first appeared in BBA1 and Meryl was a contestant in BBA2 if you remember those days when the game only had 12 housemates and each week saw one leaving the house. Big Brother came up with another twist of bringing back those contestants who had graced the show before. This is how Meryl and Mwisho hooked up.
In total we now have three official Big Brother couples who are Quinn and Jenipher, Kevin and Elizabeth and now Meryl and Mwisho. All the couples have a child at least.
Meanwhile, BBA7 promises even more fire because housemates are all paired...so in most cases there won't be any waiting now that the housemates would be familiar with each other's whateverrrr!
This will come as good news to the fans of Mwisho and Meryl after it turned out that Meryl had succumbed to a live kick from Tanzania's Mwisho. Meryl had initially scared off some of her fans when she was close to Sheila Kwamboka from Kenya.
Meryl's current condition will now put all those fears to rest as the couple looks forward to parenthood. They will also be holding their wedding later in the year to supplement the engagement ceremony they had during the Big Brother Africa 5 house.
At the time when their affair kicked off Meryl was moving out with a Namibian celebrity and Mwisho was dating two girls at the same time.
Mwisho first appeared in the Big Brother Africa 1 version while Meryl appeared in the Big Brother Africa 2 version. These were the times of shower hour with Meryl and Uganda's Maureen on full display the moment Biggie announced that it was shower hour.
They then bounced back in the Big Brother Africa 5 otherwise dubbed All Stars where they hooked up and steamy moments kicked off. This will not be the first official Big Brother Africa couple as Quinn and Jennifer are expecting their first child.
The first series of Big Brother Africa was held in 2003 and ended up in a win for Zambia with Cherise Makubale taking the prize money. Gaetano Kagwa represented Uganda and in the sixth week, he was swapped with Cameron Stout a contestant from the Big Brother UK. Uganda and Tanzania did very well because much as they did not take the day, Mwisho was a runner up and Gaetano was the first housemate to leave the house on the last day.
Biggie must have been broke because the next time we heard of Big Brother was in the year 2007 when Big Brother Africa 2 bounced back. Uganda was represented by Maureen Namatovu who pushed until the second last week leaving three housemates in the house. Richard from Tanzania took this one home.
Biggie is now coloured and the biggest reality TV show in Africa is becoming an annual event. Big Brother Africa 3 hits our tellies in November 2008. Uganda was represented by Morris who did not do very well compared to his predecessors. He left five housemates in the house. This was taken by Ricco from Angola.
In September 2009, Big Brother Revolution bounces back. This is when Biggie started his tricks of bringing in more than one housemate per country. Nigeria was the only country to have three housemates and in the end the winner(Kevin) was from Nigeria and yet some countries had only one representative. Uganda had two representative Hannington and Phil.
In July 2010, the game is back and this time dubbed 'All Stars' implying that previous contestants not winners though were given a second chance. Uganda got Hannington bouncing back only to be ejected on day 61 after a nasty exchange with Lerato from South Africa. Uti from Nigeria took this. He even lost his dad while in the house.
In May 2011, the game is back again but this time amplified with all countries having two housemates except for two countries Mozambique and Angola with one housemate each. The girls were sixteen and the boys were ten. Unfortunately as you read this, our boy Ernest Wasake was the first Ugandan to be evicted after he had sex the previous night with the Tanzanian TV presenter Bhoke who is also watching the game from out.
Uganda now has one representative Sharon O who is likely to last for over 50 days in the house. The winner will walk away with US$ 200,000 after 91 days for the show that commenced on May 01, 2011.
The last week for Bhoke and Ernest was a bit stressful but in the end they got a solution to it as though they knew they were both living. One thing was clear to them that at the end of the eviction show, one of them will be out of the house and therefore the end of their romance in the house.
During the Saturday party Ernest and Bhoke were dancing bend over strokes clearly revealing their intentions for the night. The video is for those above 18 and so we've been forced to remove it from the page.
Biggie had no choice but to show them the exit so that they can know each other better outside the house. This has been the longest couple in the Big Brother Amplified and their being nominated simply made matters worse.
Uganda's housemate and and the Tanzanian housemate who were 'lovers' in the house have been evicted from the Big Brother house after 34. This marks the end of Tanzania in the Big Brother game after Lotus was disqualified and leaves Uganda with only Sharon O.
Luclay from South Africa only came to learn of his replacement with Miss P during the live show but he kept on saying that I decline I decline...implying that he wanted to face Africa and probably be out after the show.
Bhoke who got 2 votes (Tanzania and Zambia) was called out first from the house and IK asked her about the Ebhoke relationship as to whether it was real. Bhoke replied, "No not really I don't think so I wasn't playing the game it was real."
IK crossed to the house to announce the name of the second housemate to leave the house and our boy Ernest was called out of the house marking the end of Uganda's only hope in the game now that Sharon is too quiet for life.
Clad in his 'Kanzu' Ernest came on stage with Grace Nakimera's track playing in the background. IK asked him how he felt about leaving the house and his reply was, "This is a once in a lifetime experience, It's amazing, this is it" IK told him to be careful because that is exactly what Michael said before he left.
It was purely a Uganda moment because as they showed him his highlights in the house, Maurice Kirya's 'Boda Boda' track was playing along. Moze Radio, Weasel and Keko thrilled the amplified stage together with Amplified Crew.
Ernest at least knew Karen and Luclay had nominated him though he was surprised that Nic from Kenya and Alex had nominated him. Mumba, Danny were the other housemates who cost our boy the USD 200,000.
He blew a fuse to one of the housemate and that had to be none other than Nic. "Like seriously I did not see this coming how the hell do you nominate me, I love you no I don't." Ernest charged as he left the stage.
Meanwhile, these two lovers(Bhoke and Ernest) have been evicted from the house on the same day and now they are in an environment without Biggie's voice, Camera's, microphones we wonder what tonight will be for them.
Three housemates are up for possible eviction this week with Uganda's Ernest being the only male housemate against his 'girlfriend' Bhoke from Tanzania and Miss P from Botswana.
Now since the two are up for eviction, Bhoke is kind of pulling out of the relationship knowing that anything can happen next Sunday. Bhoke told 'Otono' Nic that her and Ernest were not a couple, but were only getting to know each other.
She also added that they live in two different countries, so insecurity will take the best of her. Bhoke and Ernest have kissed, shared a bed together and also exchanged insider information about each other.
It looks like Ernest has moved on because he is now sharing a bed with new 'virgin' Bernadina who joined the tails house last Sunday.
Uganda's Ernest and his better half in the Big Brother Amplified house Bhoke from Tanzania are among the housemates who are up for eviction this week.
Luclay from South Africa was saved by this week's HoH Danny from Ethiopia and put Peo or Miss P from Botswana to face Africa implying that from Ernest, Bhoke who are also known by their avatar 'EBhoke' together with the big butt lady, one of them will be leaving the house next Sunday.
Uganda survived last Sunday's eviction after Sharon O from the Heads house was facing it off with Vina, Bernadina and Confidence and in the end Michael from Mozambique left the house and Bernadina crossed to the Tails house.
This week is even worse because there are only three housemates up for eviction. Two of them are a 'couple' and that might garner them some votes because a section of some fans out there would want to see just how far Ernest and Bhoke can go leaving Miss P exposed to the jaws of Africa.
Ernest on the other hand has been acting the lover boy, though a recent survey has put Alex more of a darling to the ladies than Ernest. If the support that Alex is winning over Ernest is to be converted to votes, then this can only mean that Ernest needs your votes.
Uganda has missed the Tanzanian vote because by default that will cross to Bhoke from Tanzania and the Botswana vote will go to Miss P. It is not clear if the Kenyan vote will be shared between Tanzania and Uganda.
Finally Ernest needs your support, because looking at last week's line up, Michael was not necessarily the weakest housemate of all those on the chopping board last week but he left so 'Team Ernest' get your votes through!
To vote via SMS: send the word VOTE followed by Ernest to 7117 on MTN, Warid, Orange and Airtel with each text going for Ugx 220/- Each phone is allowed up to 100 messages per voting session, so this is an appeal to vote Ernest now...Big Up!
Tanzania has two female housemates in the Big Brother Amplified and one of them is Bhoke who is best of friends with Uganda's Ernest and the other is Lotus who can be best described as the housemate with a pin in her nose.
Lotus was on Friday afternoon disqualified from continuing with the show after she slapped Luclay from South Africa who is up for eviction with three other female housemates.
The announcement was made two hours after biggest fight of the season so far. Biggie said: "The Big Brother House Rules state very clearly that: "Any Housemate who becomes physically violent will be removed from the House immediately.
"In addition, the Rules also make it very clear that:
Housemates will be disqualified by Big Brother if they have broken any of the rules or undermined the world of Big Brother. In this event they cannot return and may be replaced."
The two housemates were involved in a quarrel which later turned physical. Biggie disqualified Lotus and asked her to pack her bags immediately while Luclay was assigned the duty of washing dishes and cleaning the house for as long as he is in the house.
Luclay was involved in another fight with Karen from Nigeria though for this particular fight she lost and opted on crying. Lotus will be the second Big Brother contestant to be disqualified after Hannington Kutesa from Uganda who was disqualified last year for beating up Lerato from South Africa.
Tanzania now joins Angola, Mozambique and Namibia which have one housemate each. Meanwhile, Lotus had voted for her fellow countrymate Bhoke to be evicted because she wanted to be the only Tanzanian in the game
Big Brother Season Six is on and this time around dubbed bigger, louder and powerful but from what we have seen so far, the game simply has more female housemates than the male housemates and to us that is the only amplified aspect.
The house has twenty six housemates of which 16 are female housemates and the male housemates have been reduced to 9 after Jossy Joss was evicted last Sunday.
Bernadina-Namibia: If you recall Tatiana, I'm sure the selection committee was having that in mind so they brought Bernadina on board who so far is left alone after losing Jossy Joss last Sunday, but we have not yet seen her game.
Bhoke - Tanzania: Doing so well to the extent that her country and Uganda will do anything to save her just because they are very close with Ernest from Uganda. Her conversations with Ernest, the moves in the Jaccuzi have already won so many hearts that can empty their accounts just to vote for her to remain in the house.
Confidence - Ghana: Amplified in her way. The oldest in the house, silicon boobs and an entertainer, though last week she survived being evicted because all the three female housemates (Vimbai, Weza and Vina) she was up with beat her in terms of votes and for the male housemates (Danny and Joss), it was a tie of one vote each but beat them on percentage and that is how she went back to the house.
Felicia-Malawi: Amplified via talking and competing with Milicent for Wendall's dongle, short of that, her profile is still growing.
Hanni-Ethiopia: Beautiful, well composed, good complexion, hooked up with Lowme and carefully playing the game.
Kim - Zambia: I don't know whether this is to do with the country and it's norms because anyway both galz from Zambia have been very reserved, quiet and keeping in the background. Kim has however come out of the shell by hooking up Kenya's Nic and they have kissed on several occasions as though their lives depend on that.
Mumba-Zambia: Just like her fellow colleague from Zambia who has kind of opened up, Mumba is still failing to open up and she has been trying to say a few words but it is not easy to tag a topic to her now that she keeps in the background.
Millicent -Kenya: She has for the last two weeks promised to be a first lady just because one President put his details in the news paper that he was searching so since then she has been crying out loud on telly for this President to take not of that and may be her dream will come true. She has a nice body and also knows how to shake her body, so in the planned lingerie party for Friday, these will be the babes to look out for.
Nkuli - South Africa: Now this one has hooked up and with fellow country mate and that is her biggest role in the game so far. No air tickets or visas will be required when it comes to checking on Luclay. She is up for eviction together with her man from South Africa, Luclay.
Karen-Nigeria: Nigeria has taken the trophy twice but with this year's selection, there is no way the silicon boob babe, with a voice deeper than biggie coupled with that 'organic' accent will even make it to the top ten. She has proposed to fellow housemates that next Friday is a lingerie party. Good idea but Africa is waiting for you Karen.
Lotus-Tanzania: Now this one anyway you must have seen the ring right by her nose and may be the fake hairstyle and sleeping with Danny. She also cried after exchanging with Karen. She only needs one glass of Amarula and she will start jumping all over the house. They are all in the house for the money but her nominating fellow housemate, Bhoke leaves alot lot to be desired.
Peo - Botswana : Now this light skinned beauty has the hottest booty in the house and that is just how amplified Peo is. She is at times called Miss P. She was this week's HoH and when it came to exercising her rights, she saved Karen and replaced her with Mumba who now has two days in the house because she will be packing her bags come this Sunday.
Sharon-Uganda: Some have said that if this was a beauty contest, then Sharon would be in the right place. She is an authority when it comes to the catwalk but been quiet all through except for a few instances when Michael was vibing her.
The last time she talked, the topic was of her and her hubby Mulindwa having a three some, which some analysts have rubbished. They say she did that to try and convince Africa into her winning the money but she might have to think of something else because that threesome bit did not sell.
Vina - Nigeria: Her only effort in the game is her hair style and playing the referee role in the Millicent Felicia battle for Wendall the pilot.
Vimbai-Zimbabwe: The model from Zimbabwe cried on learning that it was her they had swapped in the place for Karen so when Biggie told her to pack her bags, tears just rolled. She has however made headlines by assuring the old mama in the house that she is tens years older than all of them so should lead the example.
Weza- Angola: She has just survived being evicted from the house last Sunday because she was up for eviction with five other housemates but in the end she had 4 votes, Vimbai and Vina got three votes while Confidence got only 1 vote.
Monday Night was a night that was dedicated to Ernest and Bhoke as they opened up to each other on topics ranging from family to sex lives among others. Bhoke was clad in a white top only plus a light material that she used to wrap around herself with her legs facing Ernest.
The Ugandan housemate engaged the Tanzanian housemate on several issues. He first asked her about her room in Tz which she said was big though empty with most items in the living room.
Ernest went a little close by asking Bhoke if she invites visitors most especially male visitors at her home. The Tanzanian TV presenter said yes, and Ernest was wondering if these 'male' visitors spend a night when they visit.
I'm Loud
The Tanzanian housemate said they cannot spend a night now that she stays with her mum. She also told Ernest of how she is loud reminding me of Millicent who assured Michael not to joke with East African girls for they will make him forget about his women from Mozambique because they are lethal in bed.
As the opening up progressed with Ernest listening attentively while taking his beer, Bhoke told him of how she lost a child, how her parents separated and do not even say hi to each other. She even told of how her mum is about to move to a bigger house which is about to be completed.
Ernest on the other hand told her of how he was going to change the way he was conducting himself on the issue of women. First he told her that he normally uses protection but when things are compromised, then he removes the protection.
Bhoke was a bit confused because it was like the man she was trying to open up to is kind of a womanizer and one who goes without protection. Anyway she told him to be careful but Ernest said he just does not bang anything with a skirt.
He has a checklist of the things he considers in a girl so by the time he is with a girl, then that is the right person. Kim who had been worried the whole evening because she had been nominated made her way to the 'ladies' and on coming back, they asked that she joins them. Time check was 2:00am and the ladies were now engaging Ernest.
They later retired to bed together though we are yet to establish if something went down. However, judging from what happened on Tuesday morning which Biggie is terming as lovers' Tiff, Ernest laughed at Bhoke.
She was not amused with the move, so she asked him why he was laughing, Ernest told her that he was not laughing at her but at the fact that she had kicked the exercise instructor in the mid-area. Even after that explanation, she was not impressed, but we will continue monitoring the situation and get back to you with the updates as they unfold. Watch this space!
Uganda is one of the countries in the Big Brother Africa which has now run for two weeks on channel 198 for DSTV subscribers. This is the sixth episode of the reality TV with several Ugandans having left a mark in the history of reality TV.
Gaetano was a star in the sheets with Tanzania's Abby and since then all other housemates have tried their level best to emulate him. When it came to BBA2, We had the popular Shower Hour which is now available as an internet version for those with credit cards.
Our Maureen Namatovu left a mark on that and it was only Ofunneka who came close to beating her when it came to exposing what her mama gave her.
Then just recently in the Big Brother revolution, Uganda hit headlines as the first country to be disqualified from proceeding with the reality show when Hannington who was better known as 'Smelington' from the message strap lost his temper and downloaded Lerato from South Africa.
In the sixth version which is dubbed Big Brother Amplified, Uganda is represented by Sharon O who has already made headlines as the most beautiful female housemate something that has worked for her in the last two weeks but if she continues being tight lipped, I'm afraid she could end up following Jossy Joss who only remembers being quiet as his contribution in the house.
The other Ugandan representative is Ernest who when called by Biggie's deep voice, you can easily confuse it for Alex from Ghana. Ernest is now in the Tails house while Sharon is in the Heads house.
Ernest crossed to the Tails house with Bhoke, a TV presenter from Tanzania after Biggie separated them from the other housemates at the time of introducing the second house. Remember Bhoke is the gal who stood right by the shower door as Ernest was taking a shower. She watched the entire network and since then, she is head over heels for the circumcised hunk.
Meanwhile, Lotus and Bhoke have all been competing to have the Ugandan hunk. They have both kissed him passionately in the last week but this will come to an end with the coming in of Danny to the Tails house. That explains the excitement that was exhibited by Lotus when she saw Danny join them.
Reality TV is real because what you see is what you get and that is exactly what is happening on Channel 198 for DSTV subscribers. The brushing, the showering, the eating, who blacks out after one glass of Amarula has been on since the first day of this month and now down to it's fourteenth day out of 91 days.
The house has twenty six housemates who have now been split into two houses with one having 15 housemates called the 'Heads' and the other having 11 housemates called the 'Tails'. However, this game strives mostly on housemates being together for a while and there after the love chemistry develops.
We now bring you the couples which have already hooked up or likely to hook up in the house and probably end up in a wedding of sorts because it is now on official Kevin(Nigeria) and Liz (Tanzania) are married.
Lomwe and Hanni - These are already in advanced stages.
Nic and Kim - The housemate from Kenya is planning for 'Lobola' and Kim told him it's about USD 5,000. They now sleep together
Luclay and Nkuli - These two South African housemates have turned to each other and things are heating up every other day. Initially we thought they were discussing matters to do with their country but it has now turned to the individuals and any minute from now they are about to explore the inner personalities.
Michael and Sharon - The housemate from Mozambique is on Sharon's case though back at home, Ronnie Mulindwa is still very positive Sharon cannot 'do it.'
Bhoke and Ernest - The Tanzanian girl and the Ugandan dude Ernest Wasake are definitely an item. The chemistry is becoming irresistible by the day.
Housemates from Nigeria and Tanzania in focus: - Vina Longpet is a radio presenter from Lagos where as Lotus Kyamba is TV presenter from Tanzania. Both countries have had the chance to win the Big Brother prize.
Nigeria has even taken the top prize twice through Kevin (BBA4) and Uti (Big Brother Revolution). Since inception, it was only Big Brother One that was won by Cherise Makubale and since then, we have not seen a female housemate win the game.
Richard Dyle Bezuidenhout from Tanzania won the Big Brother Africa 2 and this was one of the most interesting group of all times. Now with that brief background, the two countries have had a chance taking the prize money home and the two housemates Vina and Lotus among others are using their hair styles as a strategy to convince Africa, but I highly doubt if Africa will buy that.
Article Continues below
Unemployed Karen from Nigeria is the other housemate representing Nigeria while Bhoke a TV presenter in Dar-es-Salaam. The two countries have been lucky to have another set of representatives in the Big Brother Amplified house but Karen still has to convince Nigerians in particular and Africa at large that she can even go beyond the first three evictions.
On day one, she tried to walk with a boob swagg to the jacuzzi clearly displaying her boob floral tattoo, but I doubt this is enough to save her because judging from the messages on the screens, some indicate she is doing badly.
Finally, Bhoke from Tanzania as compared to Lotus will certainly give some mileage to Tanzania if we are to go by her beauty and character. She is one bold babe who by day two she had already checked out our Ernest(Uganda) fully clad in his 'adams suit' as he showered.
The two countries have female housemates representing them which points to our earlier observation of Big Brother being won by a female way back in 2003. We are yet to see if this is a move by Biggie to have a female take this season's prize.
Meanwhile of the 26 housemates, 16 are females and only ten are male housemates, so there is every need to reduce the female housemates as much as possible.
Tomorrow between Kaone and Meryl, one housemate will be spending a night in the barn but before that we take you down to a day that has gone down in the history of Big Brother Africa as a unique day with Namibia's Meryl and Tanzania's Mwisho getting engaged.
Whether this is a joke or they are serious will be looked into some other day but for now the two have been engaged in the presence of both family members in the house. Mwisho's brother from Tanzania came to the house to witness his brother ask for Meryl's hand in marriage.
Tanzania's Mwisho in his speech said: "A long the way I met Meryl and from then on things changed from friends to being more than friends, Whatever mistakes I make now, I hope I have a lifetime to do better things,".
Meryl's Auntie and Uncle were in the house as they saw Mwisho go down on a bended knee asking Meryl if she could marry him to which Meryl replied: ''I' d love to baby". This is when Mwisho slipped on the tanzanite ring on Meryl's finger.
Munya being the head of the house, he was the MC as Uti was the Best Man. Now Meryl's secret is: "She is having a relationship with a well known Namibian personality, he could be married, he could be not, I'm having a relationship, she could be in an affair, keep you posted"
In the secret, it is clear Meryl is moving out with someone though she also adds that that someone could be seeing someone else. Meanwhile, in one of her lines she said, she had been with over 30 men with now her latest addition, Mwisho.
In spite of the wedding confusion, Meryl, Mwisho, Uti and Kaone are up for eviction and there is no amount of confusion that can stop Africa from having the new bride or Kaone leaving the house tomorrow, Watch this space!

The main house has five housemates as the rest are in the barn house with three out of the game for different reasons. Of the five housemates in the big brother house, four are up for eviction apart from Zimbabwe's Munya who is also this weeks head of house.
Mwisho and Meryl are among the four housemates who are up for eviction implying that should it turn out that one of them has the least popular vote, they will be pushed to the barn house but before all that happens, the two will be officially married.
Mwisho told Biggie of his intentions to marry Meryl and when asked to confirm the news, Tanzania's Mwisho said: "I'm serious in life and it wouldn't be surprising to me and it wouldn't be a surprise to my family and friends,"
This will be the first time housemates are getting engaged on the Big Brother Africa reality TV show though a number of former housemates are moving out like Quinn(South Africa) and Jennipher (Mozambique), and just recently the latest proposal by Kevin (Nigeria) to Elizabeth Tanzania.
Nigeria's Uti can be a good barber given the good job he did on Tanzania's Mwisho. In the Big Brother House, Biggie will let in hair dressers like twice in the entire 91 days so in most cases the guys become bushy and the galz shabby.
The lack of hair dressers in the house makes housemates resort to improvising by either plaiting for both the male and female housemates. Hannington from Uganda has had plaited hair all along but when the hair dressers came in the house, he reduced it giving him another look all together.
Meryl's boyfriend Mwisho has a style which is uniquely tagged to him with just very little hair at the back of his head and Uti from Nigeria has played a helping hand in making him maintain the hairstyle which he has used as part of his make up for the All Stars show.
This is getting very interesting and predictable by the day. Don't say we did not tell you. Paloma will be joining the barn next Sunday as she is up for eviction together with Zambia's Paloma.
Meryl and Mwisho were up for eviction but being the head of house, Meryl replaced herself and put up Paloma. This was very tricky for her because on being called to the diary room, she first kissed her boyfriend before attending to biggie.
In the diary room she had literally failed to make a decision until biggie pushed her. She later made her move and Paloma emerged as the other housemate facing Africa this week. The housemates together with barnmates new Paloma would actually save herself so she emerged as one of those with the most votes.
For the record, Meryl and Mwisho otherwise known as (Merylisho) are very close buddies in the All stars show so this is looked at as the first attempt to break this bond but Meryl thought through and came up with a replacement which will be easy to beat next Sunday.
Big Brother Revolution winner Kevin Chuwang last Saturday proposed to Elizabeth Gupta the housemate from Tanzania in the previous Big Brother at a ceremony in Port Hacourt that had over 2,000 guests.
This was after the two had performed a track, "Anything you want, right there you get it". Kevin went down on a bended knee and simply asked Elizabeth, will you marry me? The crowd responded with a say yes applause leaving Elizabeth with no choice but to say Yesss!
This forced a young lady from the crowd who stormed onto the stage and hugged the two over the move. One Priscilla said: "I knew they were in love so am not surprised!!! all I can say for now is to wish them all the best in their relationship"
Tanzanian Housemate Mwisho spent yesterday evening talking about how he would like to have many wives coupled with many children. Earlier on Meryl had told the other housemates how she had slept with 30 men but only dated 5. These two are a perfect match by virtue of that CV.
Having kissed passionately that evening that must have acted as a precursor to the wrestling that was witnessed later in the night. Namibia's Meryl and Mwisho went to bed and immediately giggles started.
Moments later you could hear heavy breathing from the sheets which breathing got heavier attracting Lerato who could not help laughing. Sheila was forced to tell Lerato to "shut up and sleep"
Meryl later uncovered herself feeling knackered after a lot had gone down. The pictures says it all.

Big Brother Africa all stars kicked off yesterday and it promises to be hotter than all the other episodes from the look of things. Mwisho from Tanzania and Meryl were having a show of sorts with him daring his all to Meryl as she looked at the entire pack in amusement.
The game is becoming tight and next Sunday will see Nkenna leaving the house. Nkenna's Paloma like attitude will be one contributing factor to her exit now that Africa has got hold of her. We will not dwell so much on Nkenna now that even if she left two more housemates from Nigeria will still be on board.
It is going to be a tight week for Emma who is up with Nkenna and Mzamo in the race to leave the house next Sunday. Jeremy was her "boyfriend" but got evicted on 01.Nov.2009. It is not clear who has assumed Jeremy's position in Emma's heart for the remaining days in the house.
Mzamo Saved
The head of the house who happens to be Edward was called in the diary room to save a housemate which is now by law that you have to save a housemate or else you get on to the firing line, he saved MZAMO and replaced her with Elizabeth who survived being assaulted mutually by Nigeria's Kevin last night.
Mzamo is meanwhile feasting on the glass as though it is food. She has been guzzling glasses of wine like her life depends on it to survive throughout the week. The other housemates who have a relaxed week to viewers are: Itai(Zw) Kevin, Geraldine (Ng), Mzamo(Mw), Edward(Nm) and Leonel(Mz).
The Ugandan housemate, Morris Mugisha is about to nurse a broken heart if he is already not nursing one. Apparently all this has been caused by Morris being nominated in the fake nominations which will result in no one leaving the house this evening.
Latoya has already predicted that actually Morris could leave and she has crossed to the guy who likes it ''gangster'', Ricco. Hazel and Lucille actually commented on the way Latoya is behaving Torwards Morris.
It is now very common to see Latoya kissing Ricco passionately and for Morris it is more of a begging spree. This was confirmed further when DJ Waxxy brought the house down with his mixes, Morris occasionally danced with Mimi as Latoya and Ricco were dancing gangster style. Thank God it is a fake nomination and it has clearly brought out the true colours of Latoya and this brings in a new wave in the game next week after Morris and Thami bounce back to the house.
Thami
Thami is clearly loosing it all by the way he is reacting to the game. Little does he know that this is a fake nomination unfortunately from the way he has behaved this week like having a fight with Tawana, it does not surprise anyone that he will bounce back on the eviction list next week which will be real this time round..
Head of House The gangster kid, Ricco is the head of the house taking on from Tawana and his term of office kicks off on Monday (08.Sep.2008). Tawana's role was easy because Morris and Thami were not to leave anyway but for Ricco's being Head of House will have a strong impact on Monday.
Best Dancers
Meanwhile as Dj Waxxy did his thing Ricco, Sheila and Munya were displaying very rare strokes or better still one can as well say they are good dancers. Latoya can easily win the crown of Miss BBA3 and those three would go for Best dancers in BBA3. Morris retired to reading a novel before Dj Waxxy's sounds came to a complete stop.
Kampala Un Paid Adz
During the week, Hazel from Namibia was heard singing Jangu a track from the obsessions singing group. It is clear that Hazel and the obsessions girls share a lot in common when it comes to body size no wonder during the burn dem down session of Dj Waxxy, her dancing could easily be associated with the way the girls dance in the Jangu video. Morris on the other hand talked about the V.I.P Lounge at Club Rouge. He was talking to Uti about Kampala night life and if Uti came to Uganda, these are some of the places which are a must visit.
It is day 5 and below is Latoya's timeline in the BBAfrica house:
Day1: She slept with Ricco
Day2,3,4 She slept with Morris
Day5 Kissed Uti
BBAfrica(3) Series First Couple
Uti: Wait Lip Balm
Sheila: No No No U need Vaseline, U need Vaseline
Latoya: We will be Making Morris Jealous..
Latoya: I have Lip Balm already smiles and walks a little and then back only to kiss Uti for 4 seconds as Morris Looks on.
Uti: Moris your girl kissed me
Morris:(Retaliates) Latoya give up, Give him up.
It is very clear Morris is hurt now that Latoya has kissed Uti that is why he is quick at telling Latoya to give up and Uti is pretty much aware of the fact that Latoya is for Morris. What is strange though is that as the kiss is going on Uti is quietly having it all to himself and once done, he confesses to Morris that ''Moris your girl has kissed me''
It would not surprise me at this point if Morris voted Uti and Tawana for Eviction once given the chance to do so. In the Zero/Hero Vote, Morris chose Tawana as a Zero and Uti has now kissed his babe.
Last year's Big Brother Africa 2, Uganda's housemate, Maureen Namatovu (rumored to be pregnant now)had no big deal showering with all her clothes off bearing in mind that millions of people were glued on their tellies watching the reality show. Meryl showered with nothing on too. In the current Big Brother Africa(3) series the Tanzanian housemate, Latoya and Botswana's housemate, Tawana so far are the two girls who remove everything during shower hour which kicks off at exactly midnight(EAT).
The boys: Ricco, Munya, Takondwa and Thami all remove there clothes and shower without any problems whatsoever and at times facing female housemates under the shower while nude. Mimi originally could shower with outfits close to a dress on but now she has graduated to a two piece costume.
Namibia's Lucille puts on a brown two piece while Kenya's Sheila puts on a two piece during shower hour. Meanwhile these are three days and the Ugandan housemate has not been seen showering. On the 28.Aug.2008 he was close to showering but only brushed his teeth. It should also be remembered that shower hour is strictly one hour and Big Brother clearly announces that ''All housemates have strictly one hour to shower''
Lucille came to the bathroom and her eyes caught TK's front view, but to this she could not hold any further she just turned back and went where she came from smiling. Lucille chose TK out of all the boys to kiss. TK is sleeping with Hazel(Malawi) and Lucille is still playing innocent and still sleeping alone in the bed but how long will she go on like this..
Last night Munya(Zimbabwe) tried very much to convince Lucille so that they could sleep together but Lucille stood her ground and said No. Lucille and Mimi are the only girls still sleeping together just 4 days in the 91 days game.
