A former Big Brother Naija star, Eloka Nwamu, popularly known as Eloswag, has said that many people think Big Brother Naija stars are not talented.
Speaking in an interview with Sunday Scoop, Eloswag said, “People think BBN does not produce talents, so most of us just lay back. There is a stereotype. Some people would say things like, ‘They went to BBN, that’s why they think they can now start singing or acting’. Apparently, I am trying to remove my brand from the BBN identity. So, when you see me, it’s Eloswag, not Eloswag from BBN. There are former BBN contestants, such as Liquorose and Ebuka, who are doing great things. Ebuka has a new show, and has been meeting influential people. Nobody is affiliating it to BBNaija anymore because, he is now a bigger brand. The likes of Venita and Neo are acting now, and they are doing well. That is what I am currently trying to change about my brand.”
Eloswag added that sex education was necessary for young people. He said, “Sex is a natural urge and as one grows up ,one’s body changes. Sex education is very important, because we cannot have young people doing what they aren’t supposed to do. Coming from a good family helps one to learn properly and stay on the right path.”
