Big Brother Africa Week 4: Justice is Served

Justice was served!! And now the recap begins properly.
This week had the housemates dress up in 70’s garb and don accents from I don’t know where. It was amusing at first, but it slowly started to lose its novelty. My emotions turned swiftly from ” I will not bat an eyelid lest I miss something” to ” I want to strangle someone with their wig”. That said, I will dwell on the other cool things…
Weight a minute…
Lerato ended up in the Penthouse again. I’m not complaining or anything, I’ll leave that to the bath-tub that endures her weight, but surely there’s a more deserving housemate…
The Shortcomings Of Justice
The Eviction show was surprisingly worth watching. I liked that Jeff’s mum said her son was there to stay. Am I the only one that figured Justice’s stay in the house would be SHORT lived? He said he saw it coming. Apparently he wanted to be evicted. The 100 grand was not really on his mind in the SHORT term. Isn’t it a little disorienting though knowing that a cross section of a continent doesn’t like you, that you fall SHORT of their expectations?
Was Maureen was served the penal Code? (Will my editor run this?)
Code says the kiss they shared didn’t do it for him and so he wasn’t interested in engaging in sexual intercourse with the Ugandan housemate. Maureen on her part said she could tell that Code was after sex, but she told him to wait. Awesome, Maureen believes that True Love Waits, she should partner with Martin Sempa and put some sense in these kids.
Maureen’s stay in the house hangs in the balance because Bertha decided to save Meryl and replace her with our own. Damn You BERTHA! You awesome woman you! What we have going against us is the fact that we voted against Kenya, so naturally, even on the off chance that Kenya didn’t have to support their own (because, face it, he isn’t really interesting), we are not really BFF’s anymore (BFF- Best Friend’s Forever).
Tanzania voted against Kenya last week in an indication that our solidarity is as real as the Easter Bunny. Its like we collectively looked at the nominees and said, “East African federation my butt!”.
Viewers are not particularly pleased with the way Maureen is throwing herself at Code. Apparently it’s not the “Way Of The Female.” I don’t know what to make of this seeing as I know many people that have to pry themselves lose of the grip of many a woman every night…in Capital Pub, The Rocks and that ka-street around Club Silk.
Going by the strap band that displays viewers’ texts, Zimbabwe doesn’t fancy Uganda for the simple reason that Maureen doesn’t like Bertha. That’s just fickle. If you’re going to hate her for something, let it be the fact that she wears sweaters all the time.
Nigeria on the other hand is crazy about us. I don’t know whether this is a good thing. This kind of thing will have people at immigration wondering why we are so close all of a sudden…speaking of close…
Tatiana and Richard are incredibly close. The Housemates and viewers across Africa are sure that what these two are up to is a little more sinister than comparing notes on which hair products to use. During the course of the week Richard went into sulk mode, can’t say that I blame him, and Tatiana came over to console him and invite him to party. He played hard to get but finally gave in to the charms of the Angolan Squirrel.
I have a strong feeling that Maureen will survive this week’s nomination, which is a shame if you’re Jeff’s mum. The lady was earning herself some serious Flier Miles off this show.
Bertha is probably going to be up for eviction next along with, dare I say it, And yes, I said “probably”. I’m not a soccer analyst, so I can get away with guess-work.
