BBNaija Season 9: Tjay ‘Cheats Death’ as He’s Rescued from Pool Party Drowning

In a dramatic turn of events during a recent BBNaija Season 9 pool party, contestant Tjay experienced a near-drowning incident.

According to reports from Naija News, the 33-year-old doctor lost his balance in the water and was seen struggling to stay afloat in a widely circulated video.

The situation was resolved only when Ben, Tjay’s housemate partner, noticed his distress and came to his aid.

Meanwhile, Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko has voiced strong criticism regarding the public’s enthusiasm for the Big Brother Naija Season 9 show amid the country’s economic struggles.

The show, which premiered on July 28, 2024, with 28 housemates competing in pairs under the theme “No Loose Guard,” has sparked mixed reactions.

In a recent Instagram post, Etiko lamented that while many Nigerians are engrossed in the reality show, the nation faces significant economic hardship.

She questioned why people are more focused on the show rather than addressing pressing national issues.

She wrote: “E don red for our country and I still dey see some people dey happy about BBN. Hmmmmm nawa o Oh una still get enough money for DATA Abi? If you guys do not complain, then who am I to do so? I am majorly concerned about the poor masses, though. That you can survive does not mean that everyone can.”
