Pharmsavi

Pharmsavi Bbnaija

The nineth housemate is Pharmsavi and he is a pharmacist. He says he’s the delight of the party and always puts smile on peoples faces. He doesn’t like fights and doesn’t believe in love at first sight. He proclaims he has “the medicine for all madness” in this season of Big Brother Naija. He promises to be focused and entertaining in his time in the house.

Phyna

Phyna Bbnaija

Bryann

Bryann BBnaija

The eleventh housemate is Bryann. He is a singer and song writer who counts Wande Coal, Vybz Cartel and Angelique Kidjo as some of his musical influences. The 24-year-old who hails from Imo State started releasing music in 2019, and finally put out a full-length project in 2021.

Although down-to-earth and sometimes reserved, Bryann enjoys meeting new people, partying and watching movies. “I would call myself an extravert; which is a mix of both an introvert and an extrovert. I have random bursts of energy and I have low-energy days, but I understand how to navigate people in either of these situations,” he says.

Bryann is at his happiest when he is being creative and hopes Big Brother Naija will give him the platform to interact with people, raise his social currency and also create awareness about his music.

His fellow Housemates, however, might take exception to his chronic late-coming and his bad memory. “I’m super forgetful, so I sometimes forget to pitch for meetings on time,” he says with a chuckle. He is a single pringle but want to mingle too. He is already verified on Instagram before entering the house.

Christy O

The twelveth housemate is Christy O, a 24-year-old from Ondo State. Says she’s here to be big energy. She is a beauty entrepreneur who runs a cosmetics business. She models in her free time, and believes in giving people second chances.

She describes herself as a “funny, smart and hardworking extrovert” and admits you are more than likely to find her “where the fun is” on any given day. When she’s not hiking or enjoying a picnic with her close friends, Christy O makes time to write poems.

Her major weakness? “I’m a perfectionist, which means I’m usually not satisfied with a result, especially when a task has been performed by someone else”. She is also argumentative and sarcastic, traits that may annoy her fellow Housemates.

Despite all this, Christy O feels she’s the right person for this experience. “I am excellent at putting on a good show. Big Brother Naija is about entertaining, educating and being creative. I think I can be great at that,” she says.
