The Big Brother Naija #PepperDem housemates had a field day showing casing the beautiful Tor Tiv culture on Wednesday.

The housemates dressed in gorgeous traditional attires to showcase our rich cultural Nigerian heritage.

Housemates were particularly dedicated to the task in a bid to impress their fans and sell out their talents to the die-hard fans and ardent BBNaija viewers.

The Tor Tiv, Seyi, was clad in a flowing striped agbada with a touch of black and red. Frodd, Gedoni and Omashola looked great in their various dashiki wears.

For the ladies, it was a beautiful sight as each of them appeared elegant and royally. Just like in a regular royal setting, the Pepper Dem ladies looked really gorgeous in their traditional outfits.

Before the Show

To kick start the Heritage Bank Task was a troupe of traditional dancers who thrilled with their dance steps amidst beautiful Tiv songs.

The Tor Tiv Coronation

To open the floor was Gedoni who performed the role of a narrator as he gave the background to the play. After this, Frodd came onboard with a praise poem extolling the wonderful qualities of the Tor Tiv.  This was followed by Sir Dee’s coronation ritual. As the custom demands, the king, in this case, the Tor Tiv, had to take an oath. This was handled by Sir Dee who read out a long note of promises which Seyi repeated.

The last rite was the praise singer’s part, and Omashola stepped in. In his usual dramatic tone, he eulogized the king so much that Seyi’s smile broadened when he said that, “the Tor Tiv killed a hyena with his bare hands.”

After this, it was time for the Tor Tiv to show the land with his prayers. And Seyi acted this well like a true king. And then curtain called.
