A UK media house recently claimed that Khafi is facing a sack threat for going into the Big Brother house without due permission and for constantly romping between the sheets with fellow housemate Gedoni. This news has generated a lot of reactions from Nigerians.
Most of them were especially surprised that Khafi left a job worth £30,000 (N13 million) to participate in the reality show.
In this regard, a number of Nigerians berated Khafi through tweets. One of these people is a Twitter user identified as @IgweOfficial. This tweep had this to say:
“Khafi earns about 13 million naira per annum working with the UK Police. If I earn that much I won’t go for big brother I know I won’t win sha. I can’t keep up with the Instagram lifestyle to stay relevant.”
In light of what was said about Khafi, former BBNaija housemate Leo Da Silva shared a tweet in defence of the UK policewoman.
He said that Big Brother Nigeria is not just about the cash prize, but it is also about having a platform on which one can increase one’s earnings. Leo also maintained the position that, in London, N13 million is not a lot of money.

Big brother is a platform.Only looking at it as a cash prize thing, you’re not seeing the bigger picture. She can do a lot of things that will earn her the cash prize over time and continue earning her the cash prize.13m a year with taxes and cost of living isn’t enough. https://t.co/NP5cEA5sdf
