Ex BBNaija housemate, Adeniyi Lawal talks about his family, wife and life after Big Brother Naija.
Niyi is a 33-year-old Nigerian from Oyo State. He was once in the race to become a professional basketball player but his dream was paused after he had an accident that resulted in Sciatica.
The father, husband, businessman and TikToker often describes himself as optimistic, spontaneous and adventurous.
How Does It Feel Being The Tallest Person In The Room
My eye level is always up, I look to my level. so if I have eye contact with you on that level, you’re lucky. I have always had attention so I’m used to it
Have You Relocated To Nigeria Finally?
When I got into big brother, I already discussed with my wife that we will be doing back and forth, from Nigeria to South Africa (vice versa). We were doing that but I was the one always travelling because of my business. Now with the whole opportunity that we have, I had to bring them to Nigeria. So we are here for now and we will just see how it goes
Are They Enjoying It?
Honestly, they are not.
What Exactly Are They Not Enjoying?
The life we lived in South Africa is just so easygoing, you wake up in the morning, you do your mails, check on your staff and stuff then you go to work, visit the gym. In the evening, you take your child to the playground.
But over here, you have to really plan before you can go out and if you’re not going to a particular kids place, you’re going to a restaurant. It’s just back and forth here in Nigeria and it’s tiring
Why Did You Go For BBNaija Audition
Because I am creative, I always like to engage my brain and challenge myself and what I had was just not enough. I had the support of my wife who always knew that I love entertainment and I like to put myself out there and do crazy things. So when the opportunity came, I decided to give it a shot.
Do You Think You Deserved Leaving The House Early?
Not really. I was voted out because of two reasons
1, because I was married, that should be like 20 per cent,
2 ill-luck should be like 30 per cent.
What’s Your Belief In Life?
My belief in life is that, if it is meant to happen it will happen
Is There A Reason Why You most Times Say ‘My Wife, My Wife’?
When I came out of the BBniaja house that was when I realized how much I was saying My Wife, My Wife. It’s one of those things you see yourself doing when you’re in a confined space and I needed to be like, I am married o, remember I am married etc. If I am to talk about my wife, she’s just beautiful in and out and supportive and that’s the most important.
How’s The Reception Of other Women To The Fact That You’re Married
I’ve been out there and I have seen people and the way they address me it’s different. though I still get advances but it’s almost like they want to see if there’s an opportunity still. If what they saw in the house is different from who I am outside and I think they get disappointed, I am sorry.
