Ebuka's parting words left some All Stars rethinking their decisions.

Finding out they get to stay an extra week in the Big Brother Naija house brought relief to most All Stars; however, some housemates went into reflection mode. Before parting ways with the housemates, Ebuka had highlighted the need for them to focus on the game and stop acting like fans to their fellow contenders. These words weighed heavy on most. Angel became reclusive while many others discussed nominations and other plans.

Soma and Venita discuss Angel

Noticing the bond they share and because of her closeness with Angel and Mercy Eke, Venita sat down with Soma to learn more about his intentions for Angel. The two have shared a close relationship; however, Angel also told him she was unsure if he had feelings for her because Mercy Eke said Soma was telling other housemates he didn't like her; Mercy Eke also believed his strategy might be to act as a playboy. 

Soma expressed that he feared entering a ship again because he faced a lot of backlash for being in one on See Gobbe; fans blamed his ship for his early exit, and he did not want history to repeat itself. Even though he had gained immunity from being one of Hoh Adekunle's selected BFFs, he still feels uptight and worried about his longevity in the house. 

Venita urged him to express his worries to Angel. She also let him know that he deserved his rightful spot on All Stars, and while he got evicted during his previous time, the same fate may not be on his cards this season.

Nominations are the talk of the night

As it dawned on the housemates that someone was likely leaving this coming week, the talk on who to nominate and build an alliance with became essential. Pere, Ike, and Tolanibaj gathered and decided to nominate Angel, Adekunle, Mercy Eke, Uriel, Ilebaye, and Soma. Mercy Eke's in-house buddy, Venita, also chatted with Ike about nominations; Venita initially confronted him about speaking ill about Mercy Eke to Ilebaye. Then the duo began talking about nominations; Ike shared his plans to nominate Mercy Eke, and surprisingly Venita also wants to do the same at some point. 

With the live nomination show tonight, how will the nomination twists affect their plans?
