The previous week ended with banters flying around with anticipation on who would win the Arsenal vs Manchester United premiership game.
Arsenal had, however, continued to dominate the social media trend after thrashing Manchester United three to two goals on Jan. 22 in a highly intense footbal match.
With about two million viewers, the match was regarded as the most watched Premier League game ever in the U.S, according to broadcaster NBC, as fans of the rival teams longed to see the match which ended in favour of Arsenal football club.
As Manchester United fans were trying to digest the defeat, On-air-personality Nedu turned the trend table during a podcast on Monday when he described Big Brother housemates as “hungry” and with nothing to offer.
In his words, “the reason why many go to BBN is that they are hungry. Do you know what Big Brother does for you, it takes you from here and shoots you up but there is no substance to hold you on to.
“It’s only sex many of them have to offer, they intentionally go there just to get customers.”
Nedu had in the previous week revealed how he walked in two female reality stars sleeping with someone he knows, in an Abuja hotel.
A former BBN housemate, Doyinsola David, who was at the interview with Nedu replied him saying “there is nothing wrong in the idea.
“Who says that is a bad thing? Customers, dey turn husbands, una dey use small eye look am? which one of you here will not be happy to find someone to give you million,” she said.
Nedu has since been receiving bashes from different angles especially from female celebrities following his revelation on the podcast.
