The Federal Government of Nigeria has lodged a complaint with the National Broadcasting Commission over the sexual content on Big Brother Naija.
The Director-General, National Council for Arts and Culture, Otunba Segun Runsewe, stated this when the President of the National Council of Women Societies, Dr Gloria Shoda, visited him.
He said that in 2020, the NCAC would represent the 2008 Nudity Bill titled “A Bill for an Act to punish and prohibit nudity, sexual intimidation and other-related offences in Nigeria,” sponsored by the former chairperson, Senate Committee on Women and Youth, Eme Ekaette.
“We are going to represent that bill you can’t fight a battle without a legal framework; we are definitely going to be conscious of that”, Runsewe assured.
The government also said it had concluded arrangements with Startimes to come out with a modified BBN that would reflect the true Nigerian culture where Nigerian food would be eaten and Nigerian dresses are worn.
Runsewe said,
[penci_blockquote style=”style-3″ align=”none” author=””]“I will take up the issue of Big Brother Naija; I have spoken with officials of the National Broadcasting Commission because what is going on now is terrible. Having love affairs on screen is not part of our own culture at all. “Let me use this forum to tell Nigerians that a new Big Brother Naija is on its way coming and we are working with Startimes. We are doing BBN that will reflect the true Nigerian culture. We are already working on it, all that will be eaten there will be Nigerian food, the dresses will be Nigerian dresses.”[/penci_blockquote]
The NCWS president said although she was not against the BBN reality show, the sex content was disgusting.
Shoda said,
[penci_blockquote style=”style-3″ align=”none” author=””]“Having a live sex on stage is the thing affecting my sensibility and it is impacting negatively on the young children coming up. Does it mean that they can’t abstain from sex for three months? I’m condemning the sex content on BBN.”[/penci_blockquote]
