Nomination notes

  • ^Note 1  : In Week 1, all Housemates were asked to nominate two housemates for eviction. What the Housemates did not know was that these nominations were fake and all of the Housemates had automatically been nominated for eviction. As Edward & Erastus were on a secret mission, acting as 1 Housemate, the other Housemates knew them collectively as "Edward".
  • ^Note 2  : In Week 2, twelve female Housemates entered a secret House next door to the real Big Brother House. The male Housemates are unaware of this, so male Housemates nominated males. The females nominated female Housemates only. Similar to Week 1, nominations were fake, and all-female Housemates had automatically been nominated for eviction, with the male Housemates left exempt from eviction.
  • ^Note 3  : In Week 3, Head of House Kevin chose to save Edward from eviction and nominated Phil in his place.
  • ^Note 4  : In Week 4, Head of House Elizabeth chose to save Liz from eviction and nominated Erastus in her place.
  • ^Note 5  : In Weeks 5 through 7, all Housemates were paired up with another Housemate. However, Housemates will still nominate individually. The two pairs with the highest number of combined nominations will face the public vote. Pairs are denoted by the colored cells to the left of the Housemates' names. Head of House Itai chose to save Kristal and Quinn from eviction and nominated Elizabeth and Kevin in their place.
  • ^ Note 6  : In Week 6, Head of House Quinn chose to save himself and Kristal from eviction and nominated Edward and Emma in their place.
  • ^Note 7  : In Week 7, Head of House Leonel chose to save himself and Mzamo from eviction and nominated Elizabeth and Kevin in their place.
  • ^Note 8  : In Week 8, all remaining pairs were broken and Housemates were told they would, again, be competing as individuals. Head of House Nkenna chose to save Itai from eviction and nominated Emma in his place.
  • ^Note 9  : In Week 9, Head of House Edward chose to save Mzamo from eviction and nominated Elizabeth in her place.
  • ^Note 10  : In Week 10, Head of House Edward chose to save Itai from eviction and nominated Kevin in his place.
  • ^Note 11  : In Week 11, Head of House Itai chose to save himself from eviction and nominated Geraldine in his place.
  • ^Note 12  : In Week 12, Head of House Edward chose to save Mzamo from eviction and nominated Kevin in her place.
  • ^Note 13  : For the final voting results, it was decided that the winner would be the housemate who received the most win votes.

Controversy

Many fans were not happy about the inequality of number of housemates per representing country. They were emphasizing on how some countries had three participants (e.g. Namibia, Nigeria) while other countries simply had one participant (e.g. Botswana, Ethiopia, Malawi, Tanzania, Ghana - whose only participant was evicted on the first week on the show). The fans complained about the issue to M-Net after how unfair the balance of the game was.
