Frank Edoho, Nigerian broadcaster and filmmaker, has rejected calls to replace Ebuka Obi-Uchendu as host of the Big Brother Nigeria Reality TV show.
Frank Edoho, born 8 July, 1972 in Sabon Gari, Kano, Nigeria is a TV host, filmmaker, and photographer. He was the host of popular Nigerian TV show “Who wants to be a Millionaire”
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu , a former BBNaija housemate, has been hosting the show since 2017.
But on Thursday, the Nigerian Twittersphere was abuzz as some users suggested that the organisers of the show should consider another person as the host for the show’s next season.
Some of the users had also suggested Edoho as Ebuka’s replacement, citing his 13-year stint as host of ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire (WWTBAM)’, a popular game show.
“Ebuka don eat small, make him allow another person chop! Frank Edoho as BBNaija host for this season won’t be a bad choice tho….
Eviction night go choke gan Face screaming in fear!!!,” a User tweeted

But reacting in a flurry of tweets, Edoho said it was unfortunate that people would call for the replacement of the media personality who has hosted the show .
“What did Ebuka do to deserve all this? Why would you want to change someone that has done a show successfully for only 3 years and have him replaced with one who did WWTBAM for 13 years? Leave Ebuka alone! Please,” he replied.
