Big brother Africa
is one of the most popular reality tv show in Africa started in 2005 which is
sponsored by DStv. In this year’s edition BBafrica will have representatives from
14 courtiers eyeing $300,000, up to win, however depicted values in BBafricas
clash with norms and values of some African countries like Rwanda.
Having people walk around nude, getting drunk and some engagingin sex is not cultural revolution but rather cultural death,
Many Rwandans
describe BBafrica as an alien culture not only to Rwanda but to Africa.
As Rwanda will take the place of Angola in the 9th
season which will start on September 7 , 2014, social critics dominates the
country’s topic of discussion ” from the few times I have watched the show,
only 20% of it is okayHaving people walk around nude, getting drunk and some engaging in sex is not cultural revolution but rather cultural death.” Sendary says
The strict devotion to Rwanda’s cultural norms and values
has witnesses ample social events, such as pulling down of airtel billboard this
month, objectifying women.
However, despite
all the supports and critics some Rwanda’s celebrities have already shown and
vindicates their interest in participation for BBafrica, McTino and Anita Pendo
in forefront, while people are anxious to know either reigning queen Colombe Akiwalu
have interest or not.
