Nigeria’s last contender in the ongoing BET Top Actor Africa reality, Tobechi Nneji has been sacked from the show.
Uriel Oputa, the third and second female Nigerian on the dramatic reality contest had been evicted earlier.
Now in its ninth week of intense competition, the show is left with three finalists; Jesse Suntele (South Africa), Shamilla Miller (South Africa) and Alex Khayo (Kenya).
Ifeanyi Dike was evicted the previous week during the ‘Wild Coast Sun Commercial’ Challenge. The episode in which Nneji was evicted had featured Hollywood actress Erica Ash.
Nneji who failed to make the cut, took her final curtain call on the show this week. She, alongside three other contestants, were tasked with the ‘Romantic Period Piece’ challenge. The actors were later joined by actor/celebrity Erica Ash (Real Husbands of Hollywood and”Survivor Remorse”) as they embarked on their toughest challenge to date.
While Jesse, Shamilla and Alex rose up to the task, Nneji, got emotional and was evicted.
As the last three contestants approach the final hurdle, they will be tasked with a final challenge, “Action Movie”, in which they will have to pull out all the stops to convince the judges that they deserve the Top Actor Africa crown.
