In what appeared to be a continuation of more acrimonious moments in the house, the host revealed more estranged moments between former housemates of BBnaija Lockdown. He played more video clips where housemates were seen fighting, swearing, yelling and bullying each other. Lucy was at the centre of the first video clip which showed her quarreling with Kaisha and Nengi at different times. After watching her embarrassing display, she tried to offer explanation for her unruly behavior.
She described her fight with Kaisha as a minor disagreement but dueled more on her fight with Nengi, whom she said disgusted her, by flirting with the guys and playing with their emotions thereby causing unnecessary tension in the house. Nengi responded by saying she owns her body and can do whatever so pleases with it and that Lucy was not in a position to dictate to her what to do. She concluded that her decision to pry into her private affair was why she yelled at her.
Lucy, who felt the fight was unnecessary, believed it escalated because Nengi falsely accused her of gossiping about her and that Ozo held her rather than Nengi who was the aggressor in the fight. She concluded that though she knew Nengi was deliberately flirting with all the guys in the house, her decision to call her unprintable names during their altercation wasn’t related to her impression of her, but an attempt to get back at her for calling her an old woman.
Another controversial moment was when Neo broke down when Praise was evicted despite nominating him for eviction. Ebuka who could not understand the rational, asked why Neo showed so much emotion when he was partly responsible for his eviction. Neo said he decided to put Praise up for eviction despite being a very close ally because he felt he was the most loved among those up for nomination and would survive. Praise, who was obviously unimpressed, said of all those who put him up, only Neo’s explanation was unconvincing, but that they have since settled their differences and moved on.
In another interesting saga, Neo named Prince as the person he believed lied when they were introducing themselves, during a diary session. Prince, who did not take kindly to it, said he felt hurt because the so called lie was in relation to what he said about his father. He later said he had to cut ties with him because he felt betrayed by whom he saw like a brother. Neo who reluctantly accepted his wrong doing, said he made attempts to make peace with him afterwards but was never given the opportunity to do so. Ozo and Vee, who are Neo’s friend and girlfriend respectively felt Prince’s anger was justified and that Neo should have simply apologized rather than drag on the matter.
The final video clip showed a quarrel between Vee, TolaniBaj and Wathoni over sleeping positions. Vee explained what happened, saying she suggested Wathoni should move from her bed to another, since she was arranging her bags and could inconvenience her. She went further to say she however misunderstood her and went about telling everybody that she teamed up with TolaniBaj to frustrate her quest to get to know Prince better. Wathoni who had none of that, said her reference to sleeping position was a camouflage and that the mission of the two girls was to teach her a lesson for being a threat to TolaniBaj’s relationship with Prince.
The show came to an end when a fan asked Lucy if she felt out of place at any time in the house. She responded saying she did initially, but that she changed her mind set once she settled down. She concluded that she must have overreacted to happenings around her at the time, but adjusted later and found a healthier relationship with other housemates.
