Tobi may win the bbnaija N45m prize. Reason? 
Big brother would love the TOBI/CEEC drama to continue even outside the house. 

This time around; CeeC, after Tobi would have won the money might wish she was really in very good terms with Tobi back then while they were still in the big brother house. 
She might want Tobi back into her life and then Tobi might snub her. Or maybe the other way round; it's possible Tobi might still want her, and she might not even give a damn fuck. I know CeeC, that bitch eh?.. 

This intended drama after the show is what Big brother wants. 
This is one of the strategies Big brother uses to market its brand. He would want to keep up the drama right inside our heads even after the show has ended.

Trust we Nigerians and our ever gossip-gullible bloggers nah. Everyone would be sniffing around, curious to know when CeeC would say what about Tobi; or when Tobi would do what, or say what about CeeC.
You can trust the Naija atmosphere nah. Every attention would now be focussed on "Tobi", "the N45m", "CeeC", "Tobi said this to CeeC", "CeeC said this to Tobi", CeeC and Tobi go out on a date", "Alex snubbed CeeC at an event", "Nina's boyfriend abandoned her over Miracle", "Miracle said this to Tobi", "Tobi spends his money with his new girlfriend", "Klohe said she wished she was Tobi's pair", Miracle's girlfriend dumps him over Nina", "Lolu regrets why he didn't spice things up with Anto", "CeeC snubs Lolu at a TV interview", "Tobi talks about Alex, says their relationship in the house was not real". And all of that!!!!

No wonder Big brother applied the "couple thing" in his house for the house mates. He wanted to trigger romance, gossip, jealousy, hate, commotion, love, lust, care, accusations, and plenty dose of wahala. And to maintain these results in the house during the show and even after the show, he evicted the house mates who were not ready to provide the desired results. 
House mates who did not couple very well were all evicted one after the other.  
The Audience were so surprised at the reason the likes of Rico, Teddy A and Bambam were evicted weeks before the end show. The reason is that Rico refused to show his dramatic part. He was just flowing plainly with every house mate. He had no drama to offer. 
Teddy and Bambam tried, but at a point, the romantic fire in both of them died down. They didn't have any other drama to offer. And as result, they were evicted.

Big brother always has a strategy to always keep the thrills on. This makes the drama to linger in our minds, and this is how big brother markets its brand. 

I am not sure our votes about evictions really counted all this while. 
At every point in time, big brother always knew who's best to leave the show. It's his house so he knows how to run it to keep the drama up.


Tobi is the "man of the game". He had a thing or two to do with CeeC, Alex, Anto, Nina and Bambam. These five ladies are the romantic "live wires" in the big brother house.

Big brother would love the TOBI/CEEC/ALEX/NINA/ANTO/BAMBAM drama to continue even outside the house.
And we the audience are waiting.

Selling your movie scripts is easier than writing them provided you wrote them very well. Good Scripts are rare commodities, and Movie Producers are looking for them.
Once you are ready to sell your script, all you need to do is to present the script to the producers in a simplified form. The simplified form means you need to do a brief re-write of your script.
Out there in the script market, there are writers who are as good as you are, and they have also written good scripts just like you have done. Producers need all these good scripts, but you need an edge over the other writers. You need the producer to choose yours first. So you have to take an extra step to keep your script simple and acceptable.
In order to achieve this, you need to do a re-write. Just take these steps below:



1. Review the script
Make a brief review of the script. Tell the producer what the script looks like. Write out the properties. Make a review, or a list of;
(i)the number of pages,
(ii)the possible number of scenes
(iii)the various timings
(iv)the setting
(v)the locations
(vi)the props required
(vii)the gadgets and tools required for the actions
See example of an already reviewed script here

2. Write a screenplay treatment
This involves presenting an attractive Log-line and a comprehensible Synopsis; and an expansion of the synopsis into the three act structure. The three act structure has a model:
ACT 1; THE SET UP - the situation, the characters and conflict are introduced
ACT 2: THE CONFLICT - the conflict begins and expands until it reaches a crises
ACT 3: THE RESOLUTION - the crises is resolved

You write a Logline to present the hook in the story, to stimulate interest of the script reader/audience, and to give insight on the synopsis. Read more on Loglines here https://scriptsandpapers.blogspot.com.ng/2016/10/to-write-great-logline-for-your-scripts.html

For the synopsis, you need to tell the producer what the content of the script is about. Tell him what to expect when he reads the script.
A synopsis is simply a sketchy  summary of the story in the screenplay.
Read how to write a good movie synopsis here https://scriptsandpapers.blogspot.com.ng/2015/07/a-little-way-to-write-great-synopsis.html

And for the expansion to get a good screenplay treatment, you have to observe the three act structure and give a detailed and comprehensible highlights of the events in each of the ACTS,
Do not make it to be too long. just keep it summarized.

3. Do a brief casting
(i)Write on the characters. Describe their physical and internal features and behaviours.
(ii)State the conditions for the actors that will play the roles

4. Hint about an installment
Inform the producer that a follow up to your script is available incase of a franchise.

5. Promise to render after sale services. 
Promise the producer to render directing or any other crew services if need be.
