Reality TV show, Big Brother Nigeria, is set to organise the 2019 edition of the popular programme.
Nigerians all over the world were glued to their TV screens in the past just to catch a glimpse of their favourite housemates and even spent huge amounts to vote for the contestant they wanted to emerge as winner.
Despite the fact that there can only be one winner, the show helped create a good platform for former contestants and some of them have made good use of the opportunity.
In the past, the programme gained criticism for taking place in South Africa despite it being tagged a Nigerian show. But things would be a bit different in the 2019 edition.
It has been gathered that the reality show is going to take place in Nigeria and auditions are to hold on the first and second of February.
This would enable new stars grace TV screens as they jostle for the top spot.
The auditions as announced by DSTV will hold on Feb. 1 and Feb. 2 in eight locations across Nigeria, an increase from previous editions.
Candidates are expected to be 21 years and above, and report to audition centres with valid international passports.
Below are the list of centers across Nigeria:
Lagos: D’Podium event center, Off Adeniyi Jones, Allen Ikeja

Since Bet9ja is the official sponsor of #BBNaija
I guess we’ll start playing odds on housemate to leave the house.
