Pawns Gone Out Of The Chase

If there is one infamous Big Brother phrase which might edge out “expect the unexpected,” it’s “sometimes, the pawn goes home.”

As every fan knows, the golden rules of the Big Brother game are: Don’t get nominated. Don’t get evicted. Win the Head Of House and Don’t get swapped.

But still after one gets into that sweet chair of HOH, they have to face that emotional moment when they have to reveal to fellow Housemates their save and replace decision. But they normally get away with such after all it’s a game and everybody knows that.

With seven weeks off the chase, six evictions have been witnessed and with two houses, 12 save and replace decisions have been made. This implies that 12 heads have been saved replacing a similar number of heads in their steads as pawns.

Fortunately some pawns have managed to survive and the others sent home. Let’s look at those pawns who have not managed to survive the evictions.

South Africa’s Koketso was the first pawn to get evicted during the second week after she was swapped by Selly at the expense of Angola’s Biguesas, but unfortunately he too is now out!

Week three followed Angola’s Neyll being the second pawn to leave the house still courtesy of Selly’s save and replace decision. The Ghanaian sexy this time decided to save Oneal and put Neyll’s head in his seat. She is one HOH who has managed so far to send two housemates home in just 14 days.

Botswana’s Motamma was the third one to leave the chase in week four after being replaced by Annabel as she saved her head off the block. Motamma was followed by Namibia’s bubbly Maria exiting the Chase as the fourth pawn after she got swapped by Nando as he saved his head too.

The recent pawn seen packing back home is Zimbabwe’s Hakeem who exited the Big Brother doors in week six. Hakeem was replaced by Melvin for possible eviction as he saved Ghana’s Selly. This has so far been the emotional swap as Melvin got haunted by Hakeem’s eviction for some good hours. In his opinion,Melvin thought that Hakeem was to be saved by Africa as it had occurred twice….But little did he know that Africa’s tastes and preferences change .

It’s therefore not advisable to put someone you still want in the house as a pawn because the housemates have a different view of themselves and so does Africa…. It’s at this point I have to ask;  How safe are this week’s pawns?

Among all the evicted pawns, who would you want back into the house?
