Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Cynthia Nwadiora, popularly known as Cee-C has revealed why she did not win the reality TV show despite making it to the finals twice.
Speaking in a recent podcast interview with Pulse, the reality star explained that she lost out on the prize money because she chose to be herself instead of following a set strategy.

Cee-C, who is one of the most talked-about housemates in the history of the show, said strategy plays a major role in determining who goes home with the grand prize. According to her, while some contestants enter the house with a clear plan, she focused more on being “real,” which eventually cost her the win.
She said, “I did not win Big Brother Naija maybe because I was myself and I could not stick to a strategy. But having been on the show twice and also watched the show sometimes, I will say it’s very important to have a strategy and stick to it. Be serious about it.”
The lawyer-turned-reality star also advised future housemates to remain focused if their goal is to win the show. She stressed that contestants must keep their eyes on the prize and avoid distractions from fellow housemates.
In her words: “If you’re going on the show to win the money, your eyes should be on the prize. Don’t loose guard. Forget about what anybody else is doing. Focus on the money. If you’re there to build friendship or relationship, whatever it is, focus on it. Because the organisers don’t give scripts.”
