Sulu and Annabel

After more than two months in the Big Brother Africa's 'The Chase', Zambian taxi driver Sulu and Kenya's pretty Annabel bid their fans and fellow housemates farewell. Both played a mean game and gained their fair share of support across the continent.

The Namibian caught up with the entertaining pair, finding out about their stay and their plans for the future...

What was the worst thing about being cooped up in the house with strangers for two months?

It wasn't so bad as I knew what to expect and I liked my stay in the house.

How did you feel about the merger and the Emerald housemates?

I was against the Emeralds from the beginning. There is no way that you can come in at 70% of the race while we are at the finish line and expect me to like you.

What exactly do you do for a living back in Zambia?

I run a transportation business with buses and taxis. I am hoping to start my own thing in the future.

What is your take on the disqualification of Nando?

Nando had a personal problem which needed to be taken care of. He is smart but has a temper problem. I just wish him well for his future.

What did you think of the Namibian housemates?

They are both very cute but reserved, especially Maria. Dillish is so crazy, something I didn't expect. I think Maria exposed herself too late in the game.

Where to from here?

I used to do feature films before and I want to get back into that. I will vigorously use this BBA experience to my advantage. Oh, and I am definitely coming to Namibia so just have a party waiting for me.

What was the worst thing about being cooped up in the house with strangers for two months?

Obviously the adjustment was hard. You couldn't avoid seeing someone you didn't like and didn't know who to trust. In the end, maturity played a big role in it.

How did you manage to stay under the radar for so long?

I think being genuine played a role. Even when Melvin swopped me, but I didn't retaliate and Africa saw that I wasn't being superficial.

How did you deal with Angelo and Beverly's romance knowing that you had a crush on him before?

I felt nothing as I was over him. We also never shared intimate moments so it wasn't a big deal.

What is your take on the disqualification of Nando?

I think Big Brother did him a favour. Nando is the type of person who gets drunk and forms alliances and this was getting to the point were he threatened people. He deserved to be taught a lesson.

What did you think of the Namibian housemates?

They were both pleasant although I didn't get to know Maria. I was very close to Dillish, she was my girl and was there for me whenever I needed her.

Where to from here?

Since I'm a student doing my Masters, I want to continue that. I also want to continue my Banana Fashion line and launch it on a big scale.
