Nigerians not ready for reality TV — BBNaija's Pere Egbi

Big Brother Naija reality show star, Pere Egbi has stated that Nigerians are not ready for reality TV.

According to him, if BBNiaja was a South African or American show, those who won the editions of the show would most likely not have done so.

Speaking in the latest episode of Celebrity Quickies, the two-time housemate described those who voted for the winners as " one-track minded."

Pere who appeared during the ‘Shine Ya Eye’ season in 2021 and All Stars edition in 2023, however, revealed that he would not participate in the show again if he gets another opportunity.

He said: “My experience in the Big Brother Naija house was a rollercoaster. I had different encounters with different people, experiences that gave me something. Overall, it was good.

“But if I was asked to go back in the [BBNaija] House again, I would not. Simply because I feel Nigerians are not ready for reality TV. A bunch of Nigerians who actually vote for these guys in these shows in Nigeria, especially, Big Brother, are just one-track minded.

“I’m being honest, if this was a South African or American show, I don’t think the people who won will win.”
