The producers of Big Brother Africa IX would like to state that
contrary to information on various Ghanaian media platforms, the Big
Brother Season 9 candidates have not been rejected by MultiChoice Africa
or Endemol due to the Ebola scare.
The candidates applied for visas to travel to South Africa for the
final stage of auditioning and but unfortunately their visas were not
able to be processed and issued in time. The SA Home Affairs now
requires all applicants to submit their own applications personally and
the visa process takes a minimum of ten working days.
The South African High Commission in Ghana was following the
necessary processes but unfortunately there were delays in producing
additional documentations such as bank statements, which meant that
Endemol had to take the necessary measures to ensure Ghana is
represented in BBA 9 and does not miss out of the show
The production company had no option but to find alternative Ghanaian
candidates to audition in South Africa, as they could not hold up the
processes that lead up to the show.
Produced by Endemol South Africa, Big Brother Hotshots kicks off on 7
September at 19:00 CAT and run 24/7 on DStv channels 197 and 198, with
the best of the live highlights shown on GOtv
With less than four weeks to go, follow the action in the lead-up to
the Premiere on social media by following @BigBroAfrica, liking
