Just like every other reality TV show, Big Brother Naija has a common set of rules that housemates are meant to abide by to stay in the house.
Besides eviction, some housemates have been disqualified from the house for not abiding by a set of rules.
In the house, housemates are given a strike for each rule broken, with a maximum of three strikes, after which the housemate would be disqualified. Although, some offences may be too significant to earn straight disqualification without a strike, while others might be too negligible and the offender might get off with just a warning from Biggie.

Unlike being evicted, disqualified housemates are made to exit the house through the back entrance. They would not be granted any form of an interview and would also forfeit any money or prizes that may have been won during the course of the show.

After the fight, Mercy received two strikes while Tacha was disqualified from the show, after being found guilty of physical violence and purpose to cause harm.
Before Tacha’s disqualification, she was known to be a strong antagonist in the show as she had proven enough traits to win the show.

KHLOE AND K-BRULE
Khloe and K-Brule were both paired in the Big Brother Naija season 3 series in 2018, titled “Double wahala”.
In the season 3 series of the show, housemates were paired in twos, and Khloe and K-Brule were unified.
The controversy started when K-Brule tried kissing co-housemate, Leo. Leo told Khloe about this and she then went to confront K-Brule. In the process, she used derogatory words to describe K-Brule’s mother, which triggered him to hit her, but was restrained by other housemates.
The two, who had received two strikes earlier, received their third strikes for the fight and were both disqualified.
Khloe is currently an entrepreneur, owning a clothing line and a skincare line, while K-Brule is a rapper.
