The BBNaija 2019 housemates won the wager for their Thursday tasks which they had received early in the day from Big Brother. Dianne read the tasks to the housemates which indicated that Big Brother had decided to take them back to their school days.
The task involved the housemates dressing up in uniform outfit and recreating their high school days for a presentation. There were three parts to the presentation and one of them involved achieving the tasks from earlier in the week.
Big Brother asked them to bring their painting of all the fellow housemates to the arena for their tasks. They had to present the concept for their painting and explain why it looked the way it did. Sir Dee who drew Nelson won the painting challenge. Then they moved on to the second part of the challenge that was a debate. They chose the title “Is Economic and Government a better subject to be taught than science?”
The debate was hosted by Khaffi and the group was divided into blue-cross team and red-cross team, while Omashola acted as the timekeeper for the debate. The debaters included Jeff, Ike, and Jackye who were supporting the motion. While Esther, Diane, and Mike opposed the motion in favour of sciences. Nelson, Mercy and Gedoni were the judges while Seyi, Tacha, Sir Dee, Frodd and Thelma acted as the audience. The science team won the debate based on scores by the judges but Big Brother was not really impressed. He called their debate ‘okay’ but added that ‘it really could have been great’.
They then moved on to the last part of the tasks which was playing games and singing old songs from back in the day. The housemates had a field day with this last part as they really seemed to enjoy every minute of it. At the end of this part, Big brother said he was going to reward their ‘lack of preparation’ for the debate, adding that they had won their wager.
As a final hit for the housemates, Biggie announced that “Sleeping is no longer allowed during the day in the house”. Housemates were advised to “Find ways to keep yourself active and conscious.” This means that they got 100% of their wager and the non-evicted housemates from this week can live like kings next week.
