As the sixth season of the Big Brother Naija show returns, fans of the popular television reality programme are currently slugging it out on social media over who to host the show later in the year.

While some fans want an alumnus of the Big Brother Naija maiden edition in 2006, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, to retain his seat as the host of the show, other devotees of the programme desire a fresh wine in the person of Frank Edoho, who was host of popular Nigerian TV show, ‘Who wants to be a Millionaire’.

BBNaija, which makes a return for a sixth season later this year, has already topped previous seasons as MultiChoice Nigeria announced a grand prize of N90m.

BBNaija hopefuls, who are 21 years or older and of Nigerian nationality with valid passports, will get an early audition when they pay for the DStv Premium, Compact Plus, Compact, Confam, Yanga package or on GOtv Max or Jolli package between March 24 and March 31, 2021, MultiChoice said.

The #BBNaijaEarlyAccess online auditions will also require interested participants to make a two-minute video stating why they should be picked to be housemates, the company added.

But prior to the auditions, lovers of Edoho and Ebuka, on Friday, clashed on social media, calling on the organisers of the event to bring their man in as host for the 2021 show.
