Big brother Africa all stars 2010 runner up Munya of Zimbabwe was shown on state television footage receiving a $300,000 cheque from President Mugabe. According to the BBC, Mugabe was quoted saying "From our point of view, for us, you were the winner,". The cheque he received is a third more than that of the actual winner Uti Nwachukwu. The sentiment in Zimbabwe is that Munya was robbed of the final victory while analyst think Mugabe is using Munya's popularity as a ploy to endear himself to younger voters.
Congratulations to Mr Munya, guess you can rub that in Uti's face. People who think he was robbed need to get a life! Its just a television show. On to real life issues, your president has been in power for the last two decades; complain about that instead!
In the closest Big Brother Africa voting race ever, Nigeria's Uti Nwachukwu triumphed over fellow house mate Munya Chidzonga to emerge the winner of the show and the $200,000 grand prize. For Uti whose father passed away while he was in the Big brother house the win will definitely be bittersweet. Here is hoping he spends the money wisely. What would you do if you won $200,000?
