A housemate in the ongoing Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) season 7 reality show, Eloswag caused stirs on Thursday after he was spotted wearing a hoodie with the inscription ‘be obedient and useful.’
Eloswag won the first Head of House game for the Level Up edition of the BBNaija show which premiered last Saturday and Sunday.
The 27-year-old, who was among the first twelve housemates introduced into the Biggie house, belonged to House Level 1.
Eloswag, whose birthname is Eloka Nwamu, sparked a barrage of reactions today on social media after viewers spotted him in the cloth which has an inscription that clearly depicts the popular campaign slang used by supporters of Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
The inscription seen on the backside of Eloswag’s hoodie read: “Be Obedient and Useful”.
The above was coined from the ‘Obidient and Yusful’ slogan which followers of Obi and his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, have been using to address their supporters and drive their campaign on the microblogging platform, Twitter.
Eloswag’s ‘harmless’ wear has since generated a large number of reactions on Twitter as netizens shared their opinions.
See some of the reactions below:
“Eloswag, the current HOH has a message for all Nigerians. Guys, I said that we can hijack this BBNaija and use it in our favour. This is the beginning,” said Drpenking.
Another netizen [@sommy_Love26] tweeted: “Greater things awaits Eloswag. I love that he tried though biggie made him remove it immediately he noticed the guy was making a statement with his hoodies. Obidients we be strong head people.”
Kelechi Nwoha [@kcien3] said: “Not a BBNaija fan, follower nor viewer but I will be voting at every eviction to keep this man in the house for this gesture. I don’t see him as Eloswag but ‘Elobedient’. My voting starts with him.”
Also reacting, [@NeatLogisticsNG] tweeted: “Bold guy…the few minutes he wore it was enough to rattle the enemies. No harm intended. Good move. Now that he has identified, the votes will be essy…the game is the Game.”
“He’s an Obi-dient child, he understands the assignment. I’ve never voted in the BBN reality TV show, but this time around, @eloswag
you gat my votes all through till I see you become the winner,” Johnson Emmanuel Olorunfemi [@johnsonimpact] tweeted.
Christian Des-Ugbo [@UgboDesmond] wrote: “Failure and directionless awaits Eloswag. You don’t play politics with everything.#BBNaija is not a political game otherwise, this will be the last of such show. Marks today’s date.”
