Sensational Big Brother Naira housemate, Khafi Kareem, has finally bid the house well.
She was evicted on Sunday evening, on a night that many fans of the popular reality show feel pain that she has to leave.
It is not the first time that a popular member would be evicted.
But Khafi’s case is peculiar in some ways.
Apart from having a sensational aura, she helped to enrich the controversial character of the show, especially in the area of the always attractive but nervy subject of sex.
Many believe she and her earlier evicted house-love, Gedoni, went into each other as their relationship hit a peak where they could not withdraw.
This compounded the burden of morality the show sometimes has to shoulder, with society sharply divided over whether or not it should be on air.
Indeed, even Khafi’s employers, the UK police, found the sex scare so strange that they are said to be angry with her, with reports that a query might be waiting for her.
She and Gedoni have, however, strongly denied having an intercourse in the house, with the burden of proof somehow rolling back on viewers.
Now that Khafi, a policewoman, is out of the house, the world will be eager to know what happens next.
Is she going back to her job and how will the UK establishment treat her case.
Whatever happens from now will show whether her exit from the house is just the end of an era or end of an error.
An era because of the eventful time she had in the house; an error if her judgement to be part of the project is proved wrong, based on what transpires between her and the United Kingdom and the larger society.
As NAN also captures, the UK Metro police officer was evicted during the live show on Sunday.
Khafi, who was put up in a strong competition with Tacha, Mike and Seyi, got on stage in her usual, bubbly demeanor.
“When the nomination reel was played for her, she told host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu that she was surprised Ike nominated her seeing as they both bonded in the house.
In the post eviction interview, Khafi said that she bonded with Gedoni in the first week because they were both up for eviction. She told Ebuka that she believes he loves her as much she loves him, adding that she was a forlorn lover when he was evicted.
“She announced that she would be moving to Lagos from London and plans to go into acting and presenting. uring her stint in the house, Khafi was Head of House, won one million Naira and part of Team Lagos and a car,” NAN added.
