Big Brother Naija All Stars housemate, Uriel’s eviction from the ongoing reality show has elicited passionate reactions among viewers.
Uriel, who had garnered a strong fan base for her engaging personality and entertaining content, became the second housemate to be evicted from the ongoing season on Sunday.
Last week, Princess was booted out, setting the stage for Uriel’s unexpected departure from the show.
The controversy stems from the newly implemented jury system, where panel composed of ex-housemates Teddy A, Laycon, and Dianne collectively decides which nominated contestants should be evicted.
The move from the traditional viewer voting process has left fans feeling disenfranchised and led to a barrage of criticism directed at both the show’s producers and the jury members.
Fans flooded the Big Brother Naija All Stars Instagram page with comments expressing their disappointment and disapproval. One fan exclaimed, “This is the worst eviction ever!!! Uriel was the content.”
Another viewer declared, “I’m no longer voting. I protest to stop voting like this. Comment if you’re with me. WTF!“.
A particularly pointed comment warned the show not to replicate this system with former contestant Cee C, indicating that this new approach to evictions was not well-received. Numerous fans echoed sentiments that Uriel’s eviction was unjust and that she deserved to remain in the house.
“See big brother
