The nightlife promoter and Chizoba were evicted from the ‘No Loose Guard’ house last Sunday.
Benjamin ‘Ben‘ Olufemi, the former BBNaija season nine housemate has opened up on why he relocated from the United Kingdom to Nigeria in order to participate in the reality show.
He spoke following his eviction from the show alongside, Chizoba.
In an interview with some journalists, Ben disclosed it was easy to relocate since he is a nightlife promoter in the UK and not a 9-to-5 worker.
The reality star also said he aimed to utilize the platform to promote his business and “sell myself.”
“First and foremost, I do not do a 9 to 5, so I just had to know if it was something I wanted to do. Tjay reached out to me and said let us do this thing together (pairing). So if I was doing a 9 to 5 or schooling under a student’s visa, I would not have come,” he said.
“But I am a permanent resident in the UK, so nightlife is on the weekend. To push my nightlife 100% was why I came for Big Brother. To sell myself. I tell people that I organise parties, and people would come to my parties.
“People now even use the tag line no Action Ben, no party. It was actually easy but the most difficult part for me was that I had to pay all my bills before coming. That was like the most difficult part because I had to pay my house rent for 3 months and all my bills.”
On his strategy, the 29-year-old reality star said: “I came into the show as myself, no pretenses. I’ve always been jovial and nonchalant”.
“Thank God when I went into the house, a lot of old videos were coming out that this is how this boy is. So I have been this way even 10 years ago, I have been my jovial self, nonchalant, I do not care.”
