Every year, Big Brother Naija opens up its doors to contestants from all over the country to participate and compete in a bid to win millions of naira. Every year we get entertained by these housemates, we get to know about their lives, and we feel even bonded to them. But despite their long number of days in this house, we still never know them completely and it is always fascinating to learn new things about our favorite housemates. Today, I’ll be counting down for you SEVEN BBNaija housemates that you may not know have celebrity relatives. I dug deep, I have done my research, and I cannot wait to share this list with you. 1. Neo and Venita Akpofure 2020 BBNaija Lockdown housemate, Neo Akpofure is related to 2019’s BBNaija Pepper Dem housemate, Venita Akpofure. Because of the shared last names, it was immediately obvious that there is a relationship between the two but most people didn’t know what kind of relationship it is. Some people think their siblings, others think they’re cousins. Neither party has come out to disclose the exact type of relationship they share, but Venita did share a video of her and Neo cruising around in a car, so they definitely know each other and have some type of connection. 2. Uriel and Charlyboy Big Brother Naija Season 2 contestant, Uriel disclosed in an interview with The Punch that veteran musician Charly Boy is her uncle. She spoke about him saying: Charly Boy is my uncle and he inspired me in a very huge way. I was encouraged by what he had achieved with his entertainment career. However, I wouldn’t say that anybody really paved the way for me in the entertainment industry. I struggled for everything and where I am now. I made sacrifices like everybody else, and it took me about 10 years to get to this spot. Meanwhile, this is nowhere close to where I want to be. I believe I still have a long way to go. 3. Kiddwaya and Terry Waya One of the more popular relationships that we know of – 2020 BBNaija contestant, Kiddwaya became very popular when it was revealed that he is the son of Nigerian billionaire, Terry Waya. Kidd on multiple occasions talked about the relationship he has with his father while on the show, and outside the show, Terry Waya also talked about his thoughts about his son Kidd in the house and campaigned for him to win. 4. Teddy A and BamBam They both went into BBNaija Season 3 not knowing themselves, but after a whirlwind romance, BBNaija contestants Teddy A and BamBam walked down the aisle and officially tied the knot as man and wife. The two celebrities are now related by marriage. 5. Seyi and Obafemi Awolowo Seyi Awolowo was a BBNaija contestant that competed on the fourth season of the BBNaija franchise. If the surname Awolowo sounds familiar, that is because it is. Seyi Awolowo is in fact the grandson of one of Nigeria's founding fathers Chief Obafemi Awolowo. 6. Tobi and Femi Bakre Have you heard of Kraks TV? You most probably have if you are a Nigerian person on social media, especially Instagram. Kraks TV is run by a boy named Femi Bakre.
