In less than 24 hours of the show’s commencement, it’s already the trending No.1 hashtag worldwide on Twitter (yes, it is that big). This gives us a glimpse of the reach of Tech apps and how they link human society into one big community. It also gives us an insight of how much Tech apps can be used to set social agenda.

And, we are going to review some early dramas:

Biggie’s Voice

A lot has been said about this season’s Big Brother’s voice as viewers of the reality show who are used to the thick bass-like sound of Big Brother’s voice were not thrilled by the voice of the new Big Brother and wanted the return of the original voice.

The Scramble for a Favourite Begins!

Viewers of the #DoubleWahala episode have also begun to support and team up behind housemates. A lot of favourites have begun to show up on social media and the social media accounts of housemate teams are already showing up.

There also seem to be a particular dislike for a particular housemate who seemed to have a prowess in the verbal display category as he seems to love the sound of his voice and this has earned him the dislike of viewers in the few hours of the show.

Mock Eviction?

To add to the drama of the show, Big Brother added a little twist: six of the contestants were unable to get beds yesterday and to everyone’s surprise, they were evicted from the house as Big Brother told them to evacuate the house (Don’t say I told you, it’s a mock eviction).
