BBNAIJA 3: Organisrrs retain Ebuka Obi-Uchendu as host

Organisers of the Big Brother reality TV show have retained former housemate and lawyer turned media personality Ebuka Obi-Uchendu as the host of this year’s edition of the event.

And just like last year, Ebuka will usher the housemates into the Big Brother Naija house and will take up the dreaded responsibility of announcing the show evictees week after week.

Reacting to the development, Wangi Mba-Uzoukwun the Regional Director, M-Net West Africa said; “We are thrilled to have Ebuka return as host. This was the platform that unearthed his potential first as a housemate and then as a host, ultimately launching him to stardom”.

Meanwhile, the quest to uncover a new made-in-Nigeria star and a suitable successor for Efe Ejeba, the Delta State born rapper who emerged winner of the second edition of the reality TV show has begun in earnest.

Auditions are currently being staged across six locations in Nigeria, an increase from the three audition locations from last year.

The second edition of the show saw Efe Ejeba emerge winner of the N25 million prize money and an SUV after almost three months of drama, intrigue, betrayal and entertainment in the Big Brother house.
