BBNaija S9: “We Were Evicted Because We Evicted the Ndi Nne Pair” – Toby Forge claims

• Toby Forge, a member of the Streeze pair, claimed his eviction nomination was retaliation for evicting Nne and Chinne from the Ndi Nne pair during his tenure.
• In an interview with Pulse Nigeria, he explained that strategizing can significantly enhance one’s chances of staying in the house during a show.

Toby Forge, a member of the Streeze duo, expressed his belief that his nomination for eviction was a form of retaliation for the earlier eviction of Nne and Chinne from the Ndi Nne pair during his tenure as custodian. In an interview with Pulse Nigeria, he articulated that the show operates as a competitive game where strategic planning can enhance one’s likelihood of remaining in the house.

“It’s a game, you plan you strategize and then you pick out the people that can threaten your chances of winning. I think there are three reasons people nominated me for eviction. Firstly because we took out Ndi Nne which was some people’s favourite. They kept it in their heart and paid us back. Secondly, I think it’s because of the triangle in the house between Mayor, Rhuthee, and Handi,” he said.

He further noted that the other housemates might have perceived their competitive nature as a potential threat, leading to their eviction.

“Thirdly, I felt like we were highly competitive in the house and it was becoming obvious. For most of the tasks, we were in second place. We were in a competitive mode and people were like these guys, if we keep them long enough, they might knock us out. I’m not going to blame them, it was a good strategy taking us out this early,” he concluded.

Forge also highlighted that he initially lacked a strategy upon entering the house. However, he soon adapted to the competitive environment created by the other housemates, which prompted him and his partner, Mayor Frosh, to decide on the eviction of the Ndi Nne pair.

“Initially, we didn’t have any strategy. I didn’t know I was going to come up with a strategy in the house until I realized that everyone in the house was two-faced. I came out of the house and people who I didn’t expect to say things about me, did. The first week we didn’t have any strategy, until the second week when we became custodians and we had to come up with a strategy to evict the Ndinne pair but it backfired,” he said.

In reflecting on his connection with Kassia from the DoubleKay duo, he expressed feelings of being manipulated. Nevertheless, he also recognized his genuine affection for Kassia and had anticipated the possibility of a significant relationship developing.

“Honestly, I did like her, stubborn, short, cute, pretty, and intelligent. I thought it was going to lead somewhere. Even though I felt she could be with someone else. I asked her and she tried to deny it severally. If there were any feelings, I think it’s over now cos she’s married. I don’t think I want to destroy homes. I felt lied to. I felt played,” he said.

Forge ultimately stated that his most significant achievement on the show was winning the custodian challenge alongside his partner, Frosh, while his most challenging experience was being nominated for eviction in the very first week.

“The highlight of the show for me was winning the custodian challenge and the lowest point was when we got nominated for evictions in the first week. One moment we risked eviction and then a few hours later, we became custodians. I felt like Ronaldo scoring a free kick in the 90th minute,” he said.
