Kampala — IT is the 56th day today in the Big Brother Revolution house. By press time yesterday, one of the three eviction hopefuls was expected to leave later that evening.
That would either be Kenya's Jeremy, Malawi's Mzamo or Angola's Emma. So with all factors remaining constant, right now we have nine housemates left on the M-Net reality show.
And one of the nine will definitely take home Biggie's $200,000 on December 6, when the show finally wraps up.
Who will it be? It might be a little early to tell, but Namibia's Edward Moongo has a high chance of winning the jackpot.
The twin, whose brother was evicted a lot earlier in the game, was not the female housemates' favourite earlier in the game, owing to the obscenities he hurled around the night female housemates entered the house.
But with the girls' 'hate campaign manager', Zambia's Paloma, now evicted, the girls somehow learned to appreciate Edward the way he is. Right now the Namibian is just about everyone's favourite, and no one has nominated him for possible eviction as yet.
On Friday, he won the head-of-house task, which gives him immunity from eviction this week. But even though he is not immune in the subsequent days, it is unlikely that housemates will want to get rid of him at this level when most of the entertaining housemates have been evicted.
Housemates say he is funny and is the only person who keeps the house lively when boredom is poring holes in them.
By the time they realise he is a threat, it will be late. Africa will already be voting to give him the jackpot.
And since he was close to both evicted Ugandan housemates, Uganda will definitely vote for Edward, not Nigeria's Kevin, the other strong contender who led to the eviction of our boys.
Make sure you are watching tonight at 9:00pm to see how the housemates nominated each other this morning, and who head-of-house Edward put on the chopping block after saving one of the nominees.
Meanwhile, Nigerian Hip-Hop/Afrobeat star, D'Banj, who has won the MAMA Awards' Artiste-of the-Year title twice, paid the housemates a surprise visit on Friday night and performed for them two of his top-selling hits - Suddenly and Fall In Love.
