The Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria, Lagos State Area Unit has condemned the activities and ideals of the annual popular Nigerian reality show; Big Brother Nigeria (BBN) and have called on the government to ban it.
The Amir (president) of the student-based organization Mallam Miftahudeen Thanni, who said this on Thursday, during the commemoration of the 1443AH Islamic New Year and International Youth Day, added that the reality show is causing social vices in the country.
Thanni also expressed concern over the hosting of the BBnaija show at a location in Lagos, a situation he described as “unfavourable for youths’ development in the state”.
Thanni also called on the government to intensify efforts to end insecurity in the country.
While congratulating Muslims over the New Year, Thanni commended governors who declared public holidays for Hijrah.
He, however, berated the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for not following the good steps of his colleagues who declared a work-free day.
