BBNaija winners get overwhelmed after winning the show because they don’t put structures in place before going into the house
By Kehinde Okeowo
The winner of BBNaija season 6, White Money has offered advice to those aspiring to be part of the TV reality show in the future.
The 29-year-old believes BBNaija winners, who do not prepare for the eventuality of winning the show, will struggle to cope with the challenges that come with winning the show.
He made this known while responding to a question on how he was able to cope with life after the show, during a recent chat with La Mode magazine.

According to him, he had only one person handling his social media platforms when he went into the BBNaija house, and that made things difficult for him after he won.
He thereafter advised aspiring BBNaija housemates to set up a team, before going into the House, especially when they are at the stage of undergoing medicals.
As far as he is concerned, it is difficult to deal with the demands of winning the show, if a winner does not have a team on the ground before leaving the house.
He said, “I will be very honest with you. If you know, from the moment you know you’re auditioning for Big Brother, from the moment you know you’re going to audition for Big Brother, from the moment you know you’ve passed the stages, stage one, stage two, stage three, that’s the first stages.
“In fact, from the moment you do your medicals, you understand? You get to that stage of medicals, try and set up your team. Have a structure.
“That’s the problem most us had, including myself. I was doing everything, solo, because I was not certain.
“But the moment those mails start coming back to you. They start responding, going for audition, and everything and you get to the stage of medicals, from there anything can happen.
“Try and have a three or four-man team down, social media, PR, and all that, have them down. You understand? It makes things easy.
“But when you go into the House as a novice, without having all these things down, and you come out, or you now win, or you become fans’ favorite, it will hit you hard. That’s what happened to me. It hit me so hard because I never planned for this.”
