Episode 4 of Big Brother Naija: The Buzz season 9 brought fans exactly what they crave: unfiltered comments, inside scoops, and buzz-worthy moments. Joining host Toke Makinwa on the couch was digital content creator Austin Betha, who didn’t shy away from discussing the most dramatic moments of the week.
The episode started with a discussion of the wager task and Rhuthee’s shocking eviction. Betha’s candid response to Toke’s question about the biggest highlight so far was a standout: “Definitely the moment when Flourish got evicted and Wanni X Handi started with that ‘po po po’ taunt – and then the slut-shaming followed.”
Toke quickly weighed in, noting the housemates’ trash talk didn’t match their actions. “I feel like the twins were all bark and no bite,” she said. “They were cooking noodles, but this girl cooked you both!”
The conversation delved deeper into housemate dynamics, focusing on the tension between Rhuthee and Wanni. Betha pointed out how Mayor of the Streeze duo tried to play peacemaker, while Toke added that Shaun’s attempts to calm Wanni didn’t quite seal the deal.
Betha also discussed the triangle involving Chinwe, Rhuthee, and Nelly, saying, “You can’t beat a drum and then tell me how to dance.”
One of the show’s most talked-about moments – the awkward snub when Rhuthee left the house – was also explored. The Mbadiwe twins tried to hug her, but she wasn’t having any of it. Toke joked, “Maybe they’re guilty by association because they’re also twins.”
The episode didn’t shy away from juicy relationship gossip either. From the simmering chemistry between Ozee of the Mbadiwe twins and Onyeka to Victoria’s potential game strategy, no stone was left unturned.
In true BBNaija fashion, the show explored whether housemates are using ‘ships as game tactics. Toke asked Betha about Nelly and Sooj’s budding romance, which Betha brushed off as just another game move.
The steamy moments between Wanni and Shaun also sparked discussion, with Toke joking, “I think I’m a hater because Wanni’s with my man!” On the other side of the house, Topher’s advances towards Anita are scrutinized, with Betha suggesting that he’s “forcing it” and isn’t being genuine.
Rounding off the episode, culinary and lifestyle influencer Dr Kelly Sampa joined the chat, sharing his thoughts on the ongoing tensions between Rhuthee and the Wanni X Hanni duo.
