The biggest reality show in Africa is back and AfricaMagic can reveal that Season 8 of Big Brother Africa has been dramatically titled The Chase.

28 housemates from 14 countries will not only be chasing after the 300 000 USD cash prize but the chance of becoming a household name and perhaps even finding romance.

Launching on Sunday 26 May, Big Brother The Chase will combine electrifying twists and big surprises that will require housemates to use their charm to get ahead, possibly leaving room for cupid’s arrow to connect two hearts or more.

Setting the tone, in line with theme, the new season’s logo showcases a glittering and slightly flirtatious feel with chic, edgy gold plated lines. The iconic Big Brother eye has an enchanting gold dust finish with a dazzling diamond centre, featuring a teasing hint of ruby red.

More good news is that the witty and entertaining IK Osakioduwa returns once again in 2013 to host The Chase. He has won many fans across the continent for his ability to speak openly with housemates and allow them to be at ease at their most vulnerable moments. “Big Brother Africa is a pretty unique show. Every season has its own special moments and features. I’m super excited to be invited back to host the show. I have thoroughly enjoyed the past seasons and I look forward to bringing a fresh and energetic approach to The Chase,” says the popular TV and radio presenter.

Commenting on the new Season M-Net Africa Managing Director Biola Alabi says, “Without revealing too much, I can say that AfricaMagic always strives to deliver the best in entertainment and Big Brother Africa remains at the forefront of our plans. We want to give audiences and loyal fans of the show, a truly unforgettable viewing experience once again. This season audiences can expect a show encompassing suspense, emotions, drama, fun, excitement and quite possibly, as we have seen in previous seasons, a little romance.

Having produced Big Brother Africa from Season one, Endemol promises a sterling edition of The Chase, “Endemol is excited to present another season of Big Brother in Africa. Another vintage season lies in store with fresh new twists and surprises and ultimately great reality entertainment” adds Managing Director of Endemol South Africa Sivan Pillay.

With less than four weeks remaining to the big launch night, audiences can get the latest Big Brother Africa updates right here and by liking the Facebook page Big Brother Africa and following us on Twitter: @BigBroAfrica.

For 91 days, Africa biggest reality series will be screened live 24/7 on DStv channels 197 and 198 while GOtv audiences will be able to see highlights. So stay tune…Biggie has returned and the fun is about to begin!

Na now you know. A rigged show

shower hour nko would they put another cam from under and what are they doing about the way the mirrors fog.... something should be done so we can enjoy the nudity on HD

I can't wait for it to start. Nigerians and there characteristic labelling of the show as devilish when they watch worse in home videos and American films. The annoying thing is that those shouting its devilish are does who dont't even have a basket dish at home.

I KILL: if I enter dis BBA, money no go be my priority atal, na their food and free punanies

Na die be dat ooo

I'l rather watch who wants to be a millionaire all day long

The culture of nudity is gradually coming to stay in Africa through Big brothers Africa reality show...it has infiltrated into our value system to the extent that married house mates dont even see anything wrong,when they sleep with a fellow house mate..we have thrown caution to the wind by allowing this show of shame to be shown in virtually every home in Nigeria nay Africa...,,.it is mind breaking and painful that (as the least developed continent in the world ) this the only lagacy (aside curruption ) that we want to bequeat to our children.......is there any hope for us..

Dem no like the show, yet pesin no go see road to pass for DSTV office when subscription time reach.

Whether yu peeps like it or not, as for me na BBA all de tym. Noting una wan tell me. I jus wish Karen shud be called up to rep Naija. Dat gurl is full of drama. Even mr "Danzel" Luclay can't stand ha.

The stage is set for the big show. Hope Tonto Dikeh, the Nigerian representative will not go there and mess up. But why are GOtv subscribers only going to enjoy highlights?. Multichoice, this is not ideal. Hope it's going to be shown live across board. Can't wait!!!

Eze Promoe: OP, there's no channel 197 and 198 on DSTV.
Africa Magic Channels starts from Channel 151 to 158.
Even if you're a DSTV subscriber and you aren't using their premium package, you'll still watch the highlights like your neighbours who are using GOTV.
Because the only channel broadcasting it live is Africa Magic Entertainment Channel 151, exclusive to premium subscribers.
Then the highlights will be showing on Africa Magic and Africa Magic World, Channel 154 and 155 respectively.
ENJOY!


Ladies and Gentlemen, with this awareness i've created, at least una don know say i get DSTV for house

Oboy, na family bouquet you dey use, and as far as I'm concerned that isn't a dstv plan. Just free @op because BBA has always had its own Channel. I use a pvr decoder, and I pay #5300. The last time mine was channel 198, it is being bought specially for BBA and last for that BBA period .
