A fiery exchange between Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Season 10 housemates, Rooboy and Zita, has ignited a storm of debate among fans and viewers alike, with many questioning whether the housemates should face disqualification. The altercation, which quickly gained attention on social media, has divided opinions on what should happen next.
The incident occurred during a routine task when an irate Zita poured a plate of hot noodles over Rooboy’s head. Rooboy, visibly taken aback by the action, retaliated with a slap. This sparked a heated verbal exchange, with both contestants hurling insults at each other. The escalating tension between the two has raised concerns about Big Brother’s disciplinary measures, with fans eager to know if action will be taken against them.
On X (formerly Twitter), user @oluwaiyke expressed their dismay, saying, “You don’t hit someone in Biggie’s house. That’s disqualification. Remind me what Tacha did again? Zita might get double strike.” This comment echoed the frustration of many who believed that the incident warranted serious consequences. Another fan, @Ruffyking001, disagreed, suggesting, “There’s no point in disqualifying when she’s leaving on Sunday. She apologised to Rooboy by the way.” This response reflected a more lenient view, suggesting that since Zita would be evicted soon, disqualification may not be necessary.
Some viewers also pointed out the irony in Zita’s past comments about fellow housemate Koyin. @Ade_akit tweeted, “See this Zita talking about Koyin being aggressive the other day, see her now. I pity her husband, so much aggression for a lady.” This sparked a broader conversation about the consistency of Zita’s behaviour and the way she portrays herself in the house.
Despite the controversy, there are still fans who believe the public voting process should decide Zita’s fate, rather than Big Brother’s intervention. One viewer shared their opinion, saying, “Big Brother must not disqualify Zita. Let her eviction come from votes, not Biggie’s decision. That way nobody will say she was cheated.” This sentiment speaks to the desire for fairness, where viewers feel the audience’s vote should hold more weight in determining the outcome.
The incident has brought attention to the ongoing debate surrounding Big Brother’s disciplinary standards. In previous seasons, housemates were removed for physical confrontations, but this year, some fans believe that the show has been more lenient in its approach to conflicts between contestants.
