CHINI YA SHAMSHI

Mjomba'ngu Shamshi Kuzaliwa kwangu kulifululizwa na majonzi yas’o kuwa na mfano. Hili si ada kwa wana wengi duniani. Na kama ilivyokuwa kawaida katika jamii za kwetu Raha, waliniona mwenye shari hivyo kunipa jina Tabu. Japo haya si kuyanga’mua papo kwa hapo, niliyafahamu mtuo kwa mtuo kadri miaka ilivyozidi kuporomok...

Uamuzi wa kuchagua hadithi zilizoandikwa kwa Kiengereza kufasiriwa kwa Kiswahili, ulitokana na Macmillan wenyewe. Nao walizichagua hadithi hizo kwa ubora wa hadithi zenyewe na umaarufu wa waandishi wenyewe.

Big Brother Africa Winner- swahili Hub


PREZZO

Kenya’s contestant in this year’s Big Brother Africa reality show Prezzo, became the first runners-up after managing to stay in the game for the full 91 days.

 
 
The $300,000 (Sh25 million) cash prize was won by South Africa’s Keagan, who was able to beat the rest of the five fellow finalists, Lady May from Namibia, Wati from Malawi, Kyle from Uganda, Talia from Zambia and Prezzo.

However, Prezzo was officially made the Africa ambassador for the international One campaign.

In the finals, held in Johannesburg, South Africa, where the game was being held, host IK first evicted Wati, much to the shock of most of the fans present. The next housemate to be evicted was Uganda’s Kyle, who was then followed by Zambia’s beauty Talia.

But the game got more confusing when Lady May was evicted next, leaving Kenya’s Prezzo and SA’s strongman Keagan. “I heard that I was the most boring housemate but I thank Africa for keeping me in the house to the finals,” said Lady May when she got on stage.

Prezzo was happy that despite not having a chance of becoming head of house to save himself the many times he was nominated, at least Africa loved him and kept him in the house. “But I thank God the most for keeping me strong and safe in the house to the last day,” he said.

Prezzo is the first Kenyan representative to get to the finals in the Big Brother Africa reality show. His family was represented by his mother, uncle and an aunt.

The live final show had several African artistes performing, including Nigeria’s D’Banj Naeto C, Ghana’s Sirkodie, Uganda’s Navio and South Africa’s Khuli Chana.

BiographyMusician Prezzo was inspired to enter Big Brother StarGame because he sees it as a great challenge. 

He says he is looking forward to being on Africa’s TV screens 24/7 because he loves attention. He hasn’t really seen much of previous seasons of the show and says that if he wins the grand prize, he’ll “cross that bridge when we get to it”. 

He says he hardly watches any TV but enjoys movies like “Scarface” on the big screen, listing Al Pacino and Mos Def as his top actors. He’ll eat just about anything – except pork – and his favourite book is “48 Laws of Power”. 

He is hugely influenced by his mom because he understands that it’s not easy to be a single parent. The achievement he’s most proud of is his musical career, because of the heights he has attained. 

Describing himself as cool, calm and collected, Prezzo says his favourite quality is his ability to entertain people around him. He says that respect is the most important trait in another person.
