Arewa Youth President, Yerima Shettima, Asks Government To Ban Big Brother Naija

The National President of the Arewa Youth Advisory Forum (AYCF), Yerima Shettima, has urged the Nigerian government to ban the country’s biggest reality TV show, Big Brother Naija. Yerima made the call while addressing newsmen on Friday, August 6, 2021, tagging the show as “immorality.’’

This year’s edition of BBN themed “Shine Ya Eyes” is currently ongoing, but the Northern youth leader opined that the show “encourages immorality,’’ and “should not be allowed to be broadcast in our country.’’

“It’s a calamity for me. I never believed in BBNaija and I don’t think it’s fair because the show is an act of immorality. Such a spectacle should not be encouraged. I have often said that this show encourages immorality and that the Nigerian government should ban it, it should not be allowed to be broadcast in our country. You see, a lot of people are watching to see acts of immorality, these sexual things flaunting their nudity, and they made it look like a ‘blue film’, so that is to be discouraged. I urge true lovers of the country to join hands and draw the government’s attention to the implication of this program which should be discouraged.”
