Ahead of tonight’s Wager, the Big Brother Naija S11 housemates were tasked to trip down memory lane for the day’s theme “Throwback Thursday”. Flora revisited the “local birds” comment with Chimsom Chuka. Meanwhile, Tram was flirting with Temi Nkem again.
Here’s how the day went down:
8:00 am – Flora takes on Chimsom Chuka
Flora and Chimsom Chuka were in the kitchen, having a little argument. Chimsom Chuka said she must ask whether he was involved and not just make assumptions. According to him, he wasn't there when there were talks about the “local birds”.
Bells left Yusuf’s bed in the Orange Bedroom and went to sleep in another bed. Yusuf woke her up to come join him and told her to stop being petty. He asked Bells to step on his back and she walked on his back.
Abi spoke to Temi Nkem in the Closet and said she heard Oyin and Flora talking about their situation and how it is exhausting. She said they should put their energy into the Wager instead and that if they fail, it will be on them. Abi said they were also angry about jollof rice.
9:00 am – It’s Throwback Thursday
Oyin, Aikou and Gerard discuss the Wager.
Biggie helped Head of House (HoH) Abi to call the housemates to the Main Lounge for a day’s brief read. However, most of the housemates still took their time.
Temi Nkem is making custard and Tram advised her on how to make it. Tram said Temi Nkem will just switch up. He told her she can't keep coming back to him in the night.
Tram made himself custard and Temi joked about his custard. He asked Temi Nkem why she's acting like she doesn't want him, he still wants her. Tram told Barry that Temi Nkem likes his attention.
Abi tried to wake Nomy up and called her a child.
Abi read the brief, it's Throwback Thursday and they should give Big ’70s energy, ’80s glamour, ’90s cool or 2000s nostalgia.
10:00 am – Talks about the Wager
The housemates get ready for the day – they are dressing up in their Throwback Thursday.
Ricky told Yusuf how this Wager is going and that the songs are not matching the outfits. He said he doesn't care whether they win or lose, because he’s been surviving with bare minimum food.
Ricky also said Nomy has been opening up and is having the time of her life. Yusuf agreed and said it was about time because this house can be too much.
Araga joined the conversation, saying that people are so different in this house. He talked about him wanting tattoo's and they talk about 2Pac and how he got tattoo's and how educated he was and his songs being deep. Yusuf said he has watched 2Pac’s documentaries.
Sheba walked into the Garden and Araga said she must come to 2Pac and added that she is his Diana Ross.
Aikou, Gerard and Oyin talk about the Wager.
Gerard said they will only win by God's grace. Oyin added that if they don't win, she will no longer do any Wager until she comes out of the house.
Gerard said she is feeling the Wager because she is the leader but it's always like this because it's hard to gather people.
11:00 am – Oyin is getting worried
Keivo joined Oyin and Gerard. They chat more about the Wager and how the people who had selected Oyin are the ones who are disrespecting her now.
She said if someone does her dirty she will do them even more. She added that if they lose the Wager, she will punish them. Oyin asks Gerard if he doesn't do revenge and he said in this house he can't take offense with this people, and he has worked with a lot of people and there is always ego clashes.
Oyin and Gerard continue with their conversation. Gerard said the only conversation he had with Chimsom Chuka was when they received the brief. He said he won't take lead on this Wager and said that he will rest this week.
Oyin called Yusuf to clarify things. Yusuf said they didn't want to get too involved with this one (Wager) because last week they were so tired.

Temi Nkem added: “The guy is even begging you, Abi.”
When Chimsom Chuka and Sheba were alone, he told her he has watched the women have meetings in the house. According to him, they do not have respect for each other. He said they should let someone's point to land before commenting.
Chimsom Chuka told Temi Nkem that today she didn’t make him custard. He said that the last time she made him custard, he had finished it. He added that she is making custard for people who don’t even appreciate it. She agreed with him.
