Arewa Youths President Yerima Shettima had said: “It’s a calamity as far as I am concerned; I have never believed in BBNaija and do not believe it is right because the show is an act of immorality. Such a show should not be encouraged as it promotes immorality and the Nigerian government should please ban it.”
Today, the Ohanaeze Youth Council, OYC, president Igboayaka O Igboayaka made a remark in Enugu condemning the show as immoral, an evil monster, and semi-packaged porn.

Comrade Igboayaka pointed out that BB NAIJA does not have any moral background especially at this period Nigeria youth have lost sense of societal values and norms.
“With the high rate of lack of moral values among teenagers in Nigeria, BBNAIJA is a social monster that has come to ruin the lives of Nigerian youths mostly the teenagers who are easily carried away by social trends.”
The Majority of Nigerian youths are not mentally matured to be participating or watching such a Semi-packaged porn programme that adds or proffers zero solutions to the social problems confronting our youths, Comrade, Igboayaka stated.
Comrade Igboayaka, therefore, urged the Ministry of youth and National Orientation Agency to present a more reasonable Youth program (Show) that will promote value system, norms as well as intellectual formation among the Nigerian youths.
“BBNAIJA does not represent any ethnic cultural status in Nigeria, neither does it appeal to any religious status domicile in Nigeria, but it present and represent a wrong worldview about the reality of life to young and teenage Nigerians”, Igboayaka concluded.
