When you check the bio of these contestants you will discover that 80% of them are already accomplished people doing well in their endeavours.

So my question is, Why cant 'ordinary' Nigerians participate in all these competitions? Must it be the big names we already have out there?

In BBN, most of them are the kids of billionaires. Whats the chance/hope of the ordinary person who wants to strike rich by competing in these competitions.

How come I never made F.T.C

All the best

This gulder ultimate search better not fall my hand because I don make mouth full ground about how e go make sense pass BBN

Reality TV shows are always interesting. That's if one has the time.

Congratulations to the contestants.

Did you apply? I have won many things, including several scholarships to oversea, with no help. And most people think I got those laurels by connections. The first thing you need to do is apply and prepare for the interview.

Can your family and friends spend millions on voting for you?
Can you afford to pay for a slot, and get a chance to be FAMOUS ?

This is business, they are in to make profit.
If you put a group of nobodies on the show, how well will they be able to pay for the expenses and air the show the following year...
You think they pluck money from trees?

PROVIDED NO CRIME IS COMMITED, ANYTHING TO MAKE A BUSINESS/DEAL PROFITABLE IS WELCOME.
