Yousef and Saskay Evicted As BBNaija Shine Ya Eye Season Rolls Into Its Ninth Week

After a week of fake and real arguments, strikes, romantic dates, and imitations, week eight rolled into the semi-final week with Yousef and Saskay saying goodbye to the rest of the house.

Big Brother brought back the eviction and nomination twist from last week, which saw the nominated housemates get a chance to save themselves by either winning the Head of House (HoH) challenge or coming in second.

The HoH automatically received immunity, while the first-runner-up would have Veto Power.

Before the HoH challenge, Angel, Nini, Emmanuel, Saskay, and Yousef were up for eviction.

Nini came in as the second runner-up during the games and used her veto power to save herself.

She replaced Cross in her spot, automatically placing him amongst the other nominated housemates.  

During the Sunday Live Show, Ebuka first evicted Yousef amidst loads of hugs and well-wishes from other housemates.

Yousef left on a high note, telling the housemates he was glad to have spent time with them.

He told Ebuka he was not disappointed to be going home after spending eight weeks in Biggie’s house.

Yousef said his highlight on the show was the HoH challenge.

He added that he loves talking with Angel, and they have a vibe.

The former housemate said his relationship with the 21-year-old was enjoyable because “it’s matured”. Answering Ebuka’s “what’s next” question, he said he’s looking forward to the endorsement deals.

Yousef shared that he’s looking to get into Nollywood because “he really wants to be in the movies”.

Next, Ebuka asked Saskay to leave the house as she had been evicted.

Telling everyone that she loved them and giving everyone warm hugs, she exited Big Brother’s house.

She told Ebuka she was a little tired of the whole reality TV show after a while.

She said that she missed JayPaul after his eviction because he used to spoil her so much.

She added that she didn’t know what would happen with the media personality now that they were out of the house.

Saskay said she’ll be starting her lipgloss line as soon as possible and begin plans for a retirement home for old people.

As usual, Ebuka left the house with a few wise words. He warned them to avoid getting comfortable, as things were not sure yet.

He shared a proverb to buttress this point in his typical style, saying, “Shoulder pad no be confidence, you better focus”.

There are now 9 housemates vying for the grand prize.
