Prepare emotionally before BBN, Cocoice tells new housemates

A former Big Brother Naija housemate, Mojisola Sowole, aka Cocoice, has advised new housemates in this year’s edition, which started yesterday, to prepare emotionally.

She told Sunday Scoop, “I learnt the hard way on the show. One has to be focused and not lose sight of one’s goals. My advice for new housemates is that they have to be prepared emotionally before going into the house, so that they can achieve their set goals and follow through with whatever strategies they plan to apply in the house.”

Reacting to the criticisms she got for allowing a male housemate, Bassey, to suck her breast, while in the house, she said, “Criticism is part of life. We all make mistakes and I learnt a great deal from that incident, even though I don’t regret it. However, if I am given another chance, I will play the game differently.

“For those who say that the show promotes immortality, nobody can claim to be a saint or perfect human being. I think people even do worse things behind closed doors. It is hypocritical that some people are calling for the show to be banned, when they have the choice of watching other channels.”
