Big Brother Africa Season 9 will now be launching on the 5th of October, 2014.
Multichoice, organizers of the realized TV show, was forced to shift the launch date which was originally billed for September 7 when the fire destroyed the house meant to house the mates.
Another house that will play host to the housemates has been found in Johannesburg, South Africa.
By this development, Big Brother Hotshots will on Sunday 5th October officially launch a new venue for the much awaited show.
According to a statement by the organizers, “after several days of searching for a new house and a new date to kick start the continent’s biggest TV reality show, M-Net and Endemol SA are delighted to confirm that a new Big Brother house has been found in Johannesburg, South Africa following the devastating fire that demolished the original house on 2 September.
“The search was concluded after exploring all possible options both locally and internationally, for a suitable venue to produce the 9th season of Africa’s biggest reality show.
“M-Net and Endemol SA are pleased to announce that Big Brother Hotshots will officially launch on Sunday 5 October AT 19:00 CAT.”
As they countdown to the launch, fans across the continent can look forward to some pleasant surprises in true Biggie fashion.
The producers wish to thank fans far and wide for all the patience and continuous support over the past few days.
