- The weekly Big Brother Naija nomination exercise held for the 8th week
- Eight housemates comprising of Kassia, Victoria, Nelly, Anita, Shaun, Wanni, Tjay and Onyeka were nominated for possible eviction
- On Sunday night, at least one of the nominated housemates would go home
Big Brother Naija Housemates, Anita, Nelly, Onyeka, Tjay, Victoria, Kassia, Wanni and Shaun have been nominated for possible eviction on Sunday, September 22.
On the eviction night, one of the nominated housemates with the least votes at the bottom three would be evicted from the reality show.
Considering the drama that unfolded after last Sunday's eviction show, some nominations particularly Onyeka nominating Kassia and Victoria were predictable.
The three housemates had altercations over a secret the parrot revealed. Kassia was accused of suggesting that Onyeka’s relationship with Handi and Wanni was fake and only a strategy.
Onyeka felt hurt about what Kassia said, tagging her a gossip. This created tension up until the nomination night on Monday, September 16.
BBN season 9 week 8 nomination process
The nomination started with instructions from Biggie. He called each housemate and after that, they took a blank piece of paper and headed to the designated areas of the house he assigned to them.
Each housemate was required to write down the names of two housemates they wanted to nominate for possible eviction on Sunday.
According to Big Brother, the ballot process for nomination would go as last week where each housemate casted their vote publicly in front of other housemates.
Moments after writing the names, housemates gathered back at the main lounge with the written names of housemates they had nominated for possible eviction.
Biggie further instructed each housemate after a call to walk to the stairs and they revealed the names of the two housemates they nominated for possible eviction.
At the end of the nominations, Nelly, Anita, Kassia, Victoria, Wanni, Shaun, Tjay and Onyeka emerged with the highest nominations.
Meanwhile, Handi, Kassia, Shaun, and Wanni were officially issued a strike for violating Article 16 of the house rules. After a thorough review, they were said to have been found guilty of conspiracy.
