Winner of the sixth edition of the Big Brother Naija show, Hazel Oyeye Onou, popularly known as White Money, has said married people should not be allowed on the show.
The reality star said this in an interview with Media Room Hub.
Making reference to his former colleague and co-housemates, Tega Dominic and Boma Akpore, he said the controversy that arose from the affair between the duo could have been avoided.
Tega, a married woman, was romantically involved with Boma while in the house.
This had triggered a backlash, leading to their eviction on the same day.
Asked to react to the argument that married couple should not be given a slot on the show, he said, “I think that is right because you don’t want to be the platform that is known for breaking homes, you want to be a platform that uphold integrity and if you watch the history of Big Brother Naija from Mercy’s time, you see it is always from street to fame, so you will want to maintain that pace, you don’t want to have scandal. For me if they ask me, I would say they should scrap out married people.
“Big Brother, you know I love you so much; you made me a star. Anything I tell you to do for me, you always do it. Biggie, do just one thing for me, which is to scrap out married people from the show. This year people said Big Brother taught them a lot of things.
“I have a lot of elderly people who watched Big Brother Naija this year and it happened that they said it was because of me that they watched it; they saw housemates who co-existed without being toxic… Scrap out married people because not every person is discipline to resist beautiful ladies, sexy women for more than two months.
“Till today Boma and Tega are still being dragged, it might die down today but it can never be erased. If he or she tries to contest for anything, this issue will resurface; the disadvantage is bigger than the advantage, that was one of the reasons I avoided most things in the house.”
